Why are people trying to down play Gary 'Spike' O'Sullivan

[M Bison]

maidana has wins over world class fighters.

eubank doesnt.

World class fighters like......... Broner?
Eubank Jr has a win over Arthur Abraham, albeit a past his best version of AA, but it literally ****s all over Maidanas best wins.

[Cheek busting]

He’s equivalent to a Martin Murray or Rubio, not close to golovkins level he isn’t World class.

This.

Look how can ya not love Spike? The name, the fighting spirit, he's got it all to be a fan favorite.

But the dude is very limited at the world level. And GGG is at the point in his career where this fight would just be such a huge step back, and be pointless.

Stylistically, it'd just be too easy for him.. A come forward fighter with limited movement.

And the flip-side, as a Spike fan, I'd rather not see Spike get his head pummeled from pillar to post.

Spike will fit well with the rest on GGG's resume, a bunch of Cs and Ds.

Andrade's risky, because he's known for pulling out of his biggest fights.

That's all that needs to be said right now. GGG ain't ducking Andrade. Andrade ain't reliable. These people are already stressing trying to salvage a fight. What they don't need right now is worrying if the guy they picked will show up or drop out.

Boxrec.They rank him the 27th best middleweight in the world.

Yeah, but these GGG haters always gotta blame GGG for everything, even Clenelo juicing and pussying out.

How is Andrade better than Spike?

Somebody tell me Andrades best wins please. Compare their resumes.

[boliodogs]

Spike will fit well with the rest on GGG's resume, a bunch of Cs and Ds.

He is the longest reigning champion in boxing with the most successful title defenses[19] including Jacobs and Canelo who are the best middleweights in boxing next to GGG. Can you name ANY middleweight who has defeated more or better rated contenders than GGG. If so I would be interested in his name. Saunders got his reputation by out pointing Monroe and Lemieux after GGG had knocked them out. Saunders next fight is with Murray who GGG also knocked out.

[FinitoxDinamita]

If you have eyes youd see that he is a fkin tomato can.

[Sludge]

Spike has no chance against GGG, but it should at least be an all-action fight while it lasts

If GGG just wants this match to try to stay fresh, fine - his last two fights were legit, he prefers to fight more often, and this situation isn't his fault

But I hope that he doesn't plan to wait on Canelo to fight again. Fighting bums at this point in his career looks really bad if he only fights twice a year
