Comments Thread For: Gennady Golovkin is Stripped of The IBF Title

Good for the IBF. Lil g needed to lose that belt after fighting that cherry Vanes.

[aboutfkntime]

So...are we saying Golovkin DUCKED Dereveyanchenko?

he was ordered to fight Derevyanchenko, but he selected Vanes

they applied for an exemption, which was approved..... but then they failed to meet the exemption criteria

so, there is no other way to put it

See a lot of the same old haters on here multi-posting, never having anything positive to say. Seems you guys follow & care more than the Golovkin fans. I'll fall on my sword & stoke the fire a bit though...

1- This not really that important, but you all be the first to scream when someone says the wrong thing so it's worth noting one more time for you. Dev wan't his Mando for May 5. That wasn't announced unitl 4/27. He was stripped for fighting a non-sanctioned opponent because he didn't sign off on fighting SD next. You guys keep repeating the same incorrect information, but guess that's nothing new for ya's.

2- People that say he should of fought SD in May are delusional to think that he'd have accepted such little money & that both sides would of come to an agreement in less than 3 weeks time.

3- So why did he fight Vanes then if this got him stripped? That's the real question. If he'd have not fought at all he'd still have his belt. He could have then unified with Saunders over the summer. Poor counseling by Loeffler. Hard to fault a boxer that wants to stay active though, even if the opponent wasn't up to standard. As I said, should of waited & he'd still have his belt.

4- This is actually good for the division because it should force some of the other contenders to fight, yet some of you are already accepting that Dev probably won't need to fight Jacobs, Charlo & even Andrade may still not take the challenge. Why the double standard for everyone else? Dev vs Murray for the IBF, how's that for next self declared MW Champion.

5- Golovkin should still fight a higher ranked MW next but that won't quiet the critics, the false narrative will still be parrot'd & some of you will still just be waiting for the next small slice of excitement in your lives...trying to knock Golovkin for who knows why.

6- I certainly still hope GGG fights BJS or Canelo next, it won't matter whether he's short one belt. It'll still be the best match-ups he can make when he has proper time & a willing dance partner. I just hope some of the other top MW's do the same because he's getting long in the tooth & time won't be on his side to settle all these upcoming disputes.

7- Seems to me that his mistake was not doing the BJS fight last summer & going for the Canelo money. Hindight always 20-20 though & been chasing the big recognition & money fight for years. Won't even go into The Ring Mag rewriting it's rules to keep Canelo it's champion & all the other double standards. Those are other organizations & this is only about the IBF, but GGG sure has been snake-bit since that decision last year & the resulting inactivity has really hurt him.

Peace...bring it.

Gennady Golovkin is Stripped of The IBF World Title

you have to fight your mando dude, there are no excuses

and attempting to use money as an excuse, is absolutely ridiculous

#justiceisservedlol

Gotta say..i'm disappointed by this move. And no he couldn't have fought him on May 5th despite what the re-writers of history want to claim on here. If the money wasn't good enough for Spike it wasn't good enough for Dibella. I love how nobody points out how radio silent Dibella went after the numbers HBO was offering for May 5th came out and decided to go to court. I really do hope this is just a delaying though to get the belt back, otherwise, it looks bad, real bad.

he could so

#excuses
#excusesarenotwoth****
#justiceisservedlol

for fk's sake stop it willya..... Golovkin just made 20mil with Canelo, and he needed to take care of his obligations in order to make another $25mil+

using money as an excuse is beyond ridiculous, when the guy stood to pocket 50mil+

Golovkin had obligations that he needed to meet to enable him to continue earning GREAT money..... so using money as an excuse is ridiculous

btw, money has never been an acceptable excuse to avoid ANYBODY, let alone your mandatory..... so, why have your standards sunk so low that you are happy to use that as an excuse for Golovkin?

the reason why you/we disagreed on Golovkin..... is because unlike you, we refused to drop our standards for him

since when did money become an excuse to avoid your mandatory?

[Dean_Razorback]

wtf IBF? why? he still has time to face derevyanchenko

[hhs661]

Funny.. when you replace Sergey with GGG and GGG with Sergio Martinez you get the same exact story.

Older champion wanting to maximize his earnings. Contender being avoided in the process. I wonder how a certain fanbase will spin this

[aboutfkntime]

Kinda wanted to see him unify honestly and if he is fighting BJS in a Unification then he shouldn't be stripped. I understand IBF move as well because Derevyenchenko been waiting for almost a year.

Derevyenchenko vs Jacobs for that Strap would be good. I think Charlo will stick with the WBC Mandatory Spot also Revisiting Derevyenchenko vs Demetrius Andrade if Jacobs and Charlo would be a good option as well

WHY DID THEY REFUSE TO FIGHT SAUNDERS IN JUNE ?

FACT: the very second that Saunders said he would be available in June, that was the ONLY fight to make

Munguia should never have been mentioned..... neither should Spike..... and neither should Vanes lol

FACT: if Golovkin had fought Saunders, he would be on top of the world..... he would be the unified champion, who could then do whatever he wanted..... he could dump those **** titles and fight whoever he wanted, because "mission accomplished"..... right?

Golovkin abso-fkn-lutely 100% deserved to be stripped

jesus, fight someone with a fkn pulse goddamnit

Team Easy-Way-Out will now fight Murata in Japan lol..... so that they can break Hopkins record, without breaking a sweat..... and they will likely still wonder why they cop so much flak

[Shadoww702]

he was ordered to fight Derevyanchenko, but he selected Vanes

they applied for an exemption, which was approved..... but then they failed to meet the exemption criteria

so, there is no other way to put it

Remember when POS GGG fans hated on Canelo for dropping the belt when he was going to trial and GGG knew a purse bid was 55/45 split in the SAME week???

This sht with Vanes is no FKN excuse. Canelo was in an ACTIVE lawsuit with someone sueing for his promotional rights back..

[TufffTalk]

lil g heart is pumpin g**** koolaid..too much fear in his heart..
