Comments Thread For: Golovkin, Hopkins, Monzon: The Record at Middleweight

[Shadoww702]

"Golovkin had been Sturm's mandatory challenger for years, but he was unable to secure his shot. When Golovkin was finally on the verge of landing that shot, Sturm was mysteriously elevated to the status of "super champion" by the WBA. The status of "super champion" is usually reserved for boxers who unify at least two major titles. Golovkin was eventually made the "regular" champion by the sanctioning body.

When he left Universum, Sturm first approached Oner and was looking for help to find a loophole to prevent a match with Golovkin. Oner put Sturm in touch with a third party. The third party told Sturm that he could pay the WBA a sum of money to make him the "super champion" and prevent the mandatory fight with Golovkin."

Cool now GGG found a loophole to duck Sergiy.

Both prime Hagler and prime GGG would have beaten prime Bhop. They would have been 50/50 against each other. And I'm a big Hagler fan, btw.

Dunno, but kind of imagine a Hagler/Golovkin fight would have shades of Hagler/Mugabi. Chin vs chin.

It's still funny as *** GGG ducked sergiy. Who was willing and ready to fight GGG for Vanes money on short notice AND he just had a fight!

"I need more MONEY to fight him" - GGG 2018.

I remember my 1st beer also...

Your also a GGG FLUFFR. I'm sure you have GGG being the best boxer past , present, and future.

if GGG had a problem with getting pased up, he could have gone out and won a different title.

If he was treated badly, why did he stick with the wba all that time?Hw shouldda moved on to another body and won a world title immediately.

He didnt, he was happy doing his regular thing until 2014. Its his fault that he didnt win a title till 2014.

He doesnt get to invent winning one, you have to go out and get it yourself just like everyone else.

in the event he was apparently gifted the title before Geale - which is grossly unfair.

GGG was given GIFTS ,not badly treated. You see things the oposite to what they really are.

Bye bye, troll.

Imo, prime GGG is a lot better than Mugabi. Definitely bigger, stronger, much better jab and a better chin. Hagler/GGG would have been like Hagler/Mugabi, but it would probably have gone to a decision.

It would have been an awesome fight, as would any mix of Monzon, Hagler and prime GGG. Both Hagler and Monzon retired before they were as old as GGG is now.

I'm a boxing fan who knows a great fighter when I see one.

And is that any way to thank me for providing you with the link you asked me for?

Go shove a duck up your loophole, idiot.

Did Hopkins have fights the orgs refused to sanction? WBA refused to sanction Brook and IBF refused to sanction Vanes.

Your own link says the WBA didn't take any money.

Irrelevant many champions have ducked mandatories the mandatories don't get awarded title defences. Golovkins defences are fake.
