Golovkin Should Move Up After Canelo. He can Unify at SMW

[yankees7448]

they'll all say hes running from charlo if he does that.

Who cares? They were whining that he didn't give Jacobs an immediate rematch after beating him. He could beat Jacobs and both Charlo brothers in one night and they'd accuse him of taking PEDS. But if he wins the rematch against Canelo, unifies 160 and then unifies 168 then all their hate will be meaningless.

[yankees7448]

He should unify and then consider his options. If he can comfortably make 160 there's no reason to move up. He won't do well at SM this late in his career.

I think he would. No super middleweight is scary. All of them are very beatable.

In the "real" world, Saunders definitely beats every middleweight aside from GGG and Canelo - and I am not saying he doesn't have the best chance of any middleweight of beating them.

The man is blessed with mad skills and now, finally has the fitness and discipline to fully exploit them. He made a complete mockery of David Lemieux, after loads of people on here and other forum posts said Billy Joe would be knocked out.

Well, let's finally see how good and true to his word GGG is, by taking care of business against Alvarez in May and then putting his belts up against BJS in a winner-takes-all-the-titles contest, later in the year. Jacobs has already had his shot and needs to earn that right, once more. If people think he walks over Billy Joe, all I've got to say is "don't be silly."

It takes more the schooling the one dimensional David Lemieux to say BJS is the real deal. He was impressive but I don't see him beating Danny Jacobs. Even though I think Danny Jacobs lost to GGG I honestly wouldn't pick anyone at 160 over him.

It wouldn't surprise me. G spent years at mw when it was completely dead. Rubio was a top contender. When he fought a Charlo on PBC everyone was crying how Rubio is a complete bum. Which is true. But he was one of G's top victories for a while.

You do know that neither Charlo fought Rubio right?

G has had various opportunities to face top opposition and has almost always declined. Until he had to face Jacobs, and then it was finally time to face Canelo because if not, Charlo will be mandatory.

Load of crap that is easily disproven. Jacobs was getting fed one soft touch after another. Now while GGG would have followed up his victory over Jacobs with consecutive bouts with Canelo Jacobs is busy taking on killers like Luis Arias and Sujecki.

Now there is Jacobs, Charlo, Andrade, and Saunders.

And none of them are even willing to fight the others. All of them, especially Andrade are content to talk about fighting the best without actually having to fight the best. While GGG busies himself with Canelo they should be fighting each other so that GGG can fight the best of them. Its just a shame that they are all are content to fight inferior opposition in the hopes that Canelo are GGG give them their big money. Earn it. #lambsonly

You're right, my bad, it was one of the Dirrell's I was thinking of. Knew it was a brother. Which is even worse. The Charlo's actually are top fighters.

You are right, Jacobs, Saunders, Charlo, and Andrade should be fighting each other. But they aren't going to, for the same reason that G isn't fighting them now. They all want the big fight, the big payday, and the chance to win and become a star and make numerous paydays. They know they are in position for it and do not want to risk it.

G and Canelo are not in a different league than everyone else, in fact they might not even be the best mws. Many believe Jacobs beat G. Saunders and Charlo look as good as G did fighting opposition like G did. Charlo fought J-Rock at 154 though. I would love to see Saunders-Charlo or Charlo-Jacobs, but we won't. Because a fight against G or Canelo is about the same difficulty, same chance of winning, but at least two or three times the pay.

It is ironic, though, considering G fought inferior opposition his entire career until Jacobs. And then as soon as Charlo becomes mandatory, G is finally agreeing to the offer Canelo had out for a year.

Better fights at 160 to be honest

[b00g13man]

It's ok to move up now? Really?

[HeadShots]

It's ok to move up now? Really?

ya after the canelo fights.


duh

[b00g13man]

ya after the canelo fights.


duh

Why wasn't it ok to move up when there was a top p4p fighter at 168?

I think he's too small for those guys. He is thick but even at 160 he isnt even that ripped. he could still afford lose more fat if he wanted but he's probably a little bit lazy on the dieting side.
