Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach: Charlo Not a Marquee Name, Saunders Better

[OnePunch]

Bullshît... Risky fights sell. Shît talking sells. Charlo would do just as good as Saunders on TV and digital. The live gate for Saunders might do better. But if GGG fought Charlo at Staples Center it would sell out guaranteed. And I'm sure Saunders would want just as much if not more money than Charlo would want to fight GGG. Knockout power, speed, trash talk and defensive skills is why they don't want to fight Charlo. It has nothing to do with money or any of loud mouth racist Abel Sanchez's excuses. This is the same dude that said black fighters don't sell. The same dude who can't shut up and makes blatantly racist remarks in the media is complaining about how someone else gets in trouble with their mouth. The irony is disgusting...

Saunders brings UK money.

Charlo cant sell out the first 4 rows of a school bus.

He is finally getting what he wanted.

The question is if he's going to fight the best now like he always said he wanted, or is he going to be a businessman like he always criticized others for.

who is the "best" is purely subjective.

Some people will think Saunders is the better fighter, some will think Charlo is.

No matter which fight he chooses, someone will get butthurt and cry "duck!"

If he can get unification fights he should take them, period.

Ideally his next three fights are a win vs Canelo for the Ring, a win vs Saunders for the WBO, and finally a win vs Jacobs for the IBF.

Bottom line. That sums it up. Bravo.

So he's using the same reasoning now that Felix Sturm and Sergio Martinez and Cotto used on him.

Personally I would like to see Golovkin fight Charlo but as it’s been said here Saunders offers more both financially and towards unification.

exactly !

stating that Martinez ducked Golovkin is fanboy rubbish

no way had Golovkin done anything to step in front of Martinez money-fight with Cotto (he still hasn't, to this day)..... and Martinez signed a deal with HBO to face Golovkin next should he beat Cotto

and the same with Cotto

when Golovkin crawled up his own ass by totally refusing to negotiate on weight with the little old faded 153lb SUPERSTAR..... he completely removed himself from the Cotto sweepstakes

people who disagree, are currently embarrassing themselves on the other thread by insisting that Joshua is the A-side

only on boxingscene

[aboutfkntime]

Saunders is obviously a bigger fight than Charlo

FACT: Charlo is his mando, so Golovkin will have to fight him as well

and there is nothing wrong with that..... that is how it should be

nobody will call Golovkin a duck for selecting Saunders over Charlo

EVERYONE will call Golovkin a duck for selecting Vanes over Charlo lol

that is not the same thing at all

[ThatDude44]

true, but there was NO WAY that fight was going to get made on short notice. Derevs management would have dragged it out 6 months like they did for GGG-Jacobs.

Same management has both sides of Derev-Jacobs and they cant even get THAT fight made without sending it to purse bid.

That's an assumption. What we do KNOW is that Derev said he was available and fight ready and he said all this with a date etched in stone of May 5th.

[slimPickings]

Same ol' same.

Same reasons were being put forth about why Spence did not "deserve" a shot at Kell Brook.

All Jermall has to worry about is maintaining his top position in the rankings.

Sooner or later who ever holds that WBC belt will have to see him.

All this selective n0nsense being spewed by Abel and the usual suspects on this board is irrelevant.

Spence eventually got his shot. Jarmall will.

Belts belong to boxing.
