Comments Thread For: Gilberto Ramirez Back on February 3: I Want Gennady Golovkin!

Who said he won't? Securing the fight with Canelo is a priority because its the biggest and most meaningful fight out there. But that isn't to say he won't fight before then.

Canelo team said that if ggg wants rematch he shouldn't fight before may. They said ggg may lose or get injured.
Ggg said that he is ready to wait Canelo until may.
It seems ggg is not going to fight someone else before Canelo.

Golovkin was fighting 3 times a year. Unfortunately he's has to play by Canelo's rules and if he doesn't he loses out on money. And you or no person would be any different given the situation.

Oh yes, "he is not businessman, he is a boxer". GGG plays by Canelo's rules only for money. Disappointed...

I agree with you on that. It's only two maybe 3 fights that'll be good at 168. I'd rather see him stay at 160.

I think fights with DeGeale, Benavidez, Rameriez and Eubanks would be good fights at 168. Peter Quillin fought up there recently. Who knows how long till Jacobs has to move up? 168 could be a ripe division for interesting fights as well. Still, too much unfinished business at middleweight.

Then why is he going after Canelo? Goes by Canelo rules?

Why wouldn't he go after Canelo?

I just read a couple of articles that talked about it. That's disappointing. I get it but its disappointing. We'll see what the other sanctioning bodies have to say. I know GGG's got 2 looming mandatories. Maybe they'll force him to defend before May. I hope so. He needs to be active.

should be chasing the benavidez fight

I like GGG but if he forced Canelo to move in weight, hits like a light heavy,is a pound 4 pound fighter... why doesnīt he fight Gilberto Ramirez???

Goood post. True.

Zurdo needs to maintain active and stop dropping names!
Zurdo, benavidez & chavez jr (hoping he still makes the weigh) could be a real party were jr gets to be the piņata... julito got a solid fan base so the fiesta could be craking! Just saying

Ggg-Canelo is a good fight. It is bad because we need to wait 7 months.
