Nevada rejected Ward vs Murdock.. They better reject this ol bull**** too.

But they approved May vs Mcgregor, what is your point?

As long as he goes to a different butcher everything will be cool.

[Hewito]

A keep busy fight, but not one person is interested.

[BoxingIsGreat]

No. And when he did fight guys with a pulse they went 12 rounds and were very close.

I had him winning both 7-5 but can easily see both as draws or even 7-5 the other way.

Yes, for me, too. Both fights could've gone either way.

i'll even go so far as to say they wouldn't be able to afford BJS as an opponent if he was ready and the fight went to regular HBO. golovkin got 2 million to fight dominic freaking wade! he'll want more, and saunders will want to get what he deserves as well!


i am half expecting this date to be called off. FFS this fight is on PPV and in las vegas. it's not cheap billing! and people like you will blame golovkin and loeffler for a bad opponent because they don't understand really simple P's and L's. they can lose a hell of a lot more than they make.

HBO isn't willing to pay any sort of real fee for May, regardless of the opponent. Those fools have one foot out the door.

No chance the date gets cancelled, there's a meeting in the next few days confirm moving the event from T-Mobile to MGM Grand per Fat Dan.

McGregor was an experienced, professional, #1 rated unarmed combatant. He'd boxed at the highest level in MMA.

he really is, dude. you just can't get a world class fighter to jump in the ring in five weeks. who cancelled the fight? who is responsible for five weeks of prep for a golovkin opponent? then, who is responsible for the quality of the golovkin opponent?



BJS is by far the most deserving opponent, and dude won't be ready to fight in five weeks! blame canelo for everything, this is entirely his fault!

Naw Andrade and about 3 other BETTER fighters have asked and called out to step up. If Loeffler and company wanted that work they could have like they are with this dude nobody was checking for.

ggg mouth was watering for a bum once news broke Canelo was cancelled. Canelo did mess the fight up, but ggg and company fighting this scrub is not on Canelo period. Either move the date back a few weeks or a month. Or see what Andrade, Ramirez, etc is talking about. And this bum is moving up from 154 so I don't EVER want to hear what somebody has done at 160 to deserve a fight with ggg.

This is a hot garbage fight. And at ggg age he should be ashamed of himself if he goes through with this. No big money, nobody is interested in this fight and the numbers will show.

[Death_Adder]

"GGG never fought anyone"
"GGG shouldn't just wait for the fight"

And he's continuing to fight no one because he's waiting around for Canelo.

The second quote is exactly what G-String and his team are doing, thus not fighting anyone.

So who should they fight?

Andrade and Derevyanchenko are both world class and both said they were ready to go.

They wouldn't be cherry picks who recently fought at welterweight, doe.
