Comments Thread For: Golovkin: I'm Ready For Anyone, Canelo's Issues Not My Problem

[Themanager]

Sources? And if true, it's because they know it's a guaranteed win, not the case with Andrade.

The sources for the $800k are everywhere. It was a fact and I agree 100%. Just saying Andrade was willing and ready to sign for whatever they offered. That's all he could do. I understand it's a business and GGG shouldn't be blamed for picking a lesser opponent but people shouldnt be saying Andrade wanted too much money when he offered to step in immediately after Canelo tested positive and was willing to fight just to get the opportunity to step in with the best on short notice and take a chance.

We can't really expect Loeffler to put together a fight to replace the Canelo rematch, which even approaches that mega event. Especially given such short notice. It took over a year for Golovkin vs Canelo I to happen, and you guys think they can negotiate a big replacement fight with less than 4 weeks before Cinco De Mayo? I'd love it if they could, but I'd also be surprised if they did.

I agree with you.

I meant to say maybe they offered Andrade less, so he wouldn't take the fight. I'm certain he'd take 800K in an eye blink! I'm no fan of Andrade and don't think he's all that. What I cannot understand is GGG's hesitation.

I read the excuse now is, Andrade is righthanded. Lol.. What seasoned, confident pro fighter cares about that, when they badly need a replacement? Has he not fought many righties in his 500 career fights (amateur and pro)?

Will these guys ever run out of excuses?

Too bad BJS is not available

At about 35 years old, he has just 2 worthwhile fights to his name.

It is "come to 160 if you are serious" then when you do come to 160, it's "prove yourself at 160" except you are a sure-fire win. His fans will say anything to cover his azz.

Crippled Martinez ducked him for his peanut payday, 147 Floyd Mayweather ducked him, little Cotto that never fought at 160 ducked him, fat kid Canelo at 155lbs ducked him, at 168 he ducked Ward.... Smh I can't.

Fixed it for you.....

So reading behind the lines, you're saying that GGG is scared? Jacobs is better than Andrade has proven to be so far. That makes no sense.

They didn't offer Andrade anything Lol. Not even $50k They just don't want it and I can understand why. Hopefully Derevyanchenko. At least it would be a fight.

[UNBIASED BOXING]

You see the same people bashing on Golovkin day in and day out, as if he pissed in their milk or something. Honestly, it gets tiring to read. These are the same guys that said the following nonsense:

"Golovkin is ducking Jacobs, won't offer him fair pay", meanwhile they also said this -->
"Golovkin needs to accept Canelo's terms he's in the A-side. Otherwise he is ducking tho"

And of course, they always claim Golovkin lost the fight (Jacobs & Canelo), or that he was losing (Brook). Anything they can find to detract from him.

Now, Canelo gets caught for PEDs and they still manage to find an excuse to rip into Golovkin. I see the same ones who were defending Canelo for the PEDs going quiet and shifting towards attacking GGG through his lack of opponent choice with Canelo out of the fight. Notice, the majority of these guys attacking him make no negative remarks towards Canelo and his PEDs, and also make ****** claims like a 36 year old Golovkin isn't past his prime .

There’s work underway to take the @GGGBoxing May 5 fight to @StubHubCenter. Great news for SoCal fight fans ...

I thought Andrade would've also been a good prep for Saunders, in addition to being a good opponent, far better than Spike.
