Comments Thread For: Golovkin, Loeffler Explain Picking Rolls As Opponent For June 8

[SUBZER0ED]

For any other fighter who had back to back tough fights & came away with a draw and a loss, a tune-up match is ok. But let Golovkin do it, and the critics come out of the woodwork like roaches when the lights get turned off.

Ring Entrance:

Steve Rolls in driving a taxi cab.🚕

It would be hilarious as heck if Rolls came to the ring with his robe and shorts resembling a taxi cab. He'd get much respect from me

Rolls is a perfect opponent for GEE to get his mojo/groove back... Those "Canelo" fights took thier toll on Golo for sure in every way including emotional. (Fired Fable).

A Dom Wade type stoppage Vs. Rolls reminds the casuals that GEE can smash overmatched opponents even at a higher weight class.

Maybe GGG does got a career in promotion post-boxing career cuz he's full of sh^t with "because DAZN is trying to establish themselves in Canada and Steve’s from Canada, I figured that this would be a good starting point for us.”

He will come in with Uber and Lyft as his sponsors

Walk to the ring with his cornermen handing out those lil 15% off business cards for Uber/Lyft.

No wonder Abel felt he wasn't getting paid enough anymore. He's no Uber shill.

Lol hell yeah!

Remember when the media asked Team GGG if they'd fight Charlo or Andrade next , they said nobody know's them. Now Team GGG admit they don't even know who Steve Rolls is.

Lol classic

That would be hilarious as hell I'd probably spit my drink out when I'd see him come out.

You wanna know who took a year off and came back and took Golovkin as a tune up fight and beat his face in like piniata?

I heard his comments in the original Russian. The translator didn't do a great job, what GGG actually said was: "Truthfully, I'd never heard of Steve Rolls, but DAZN is going to pay me nine figures contingent on me not losing before I get to face Canelo. You want my reason for not fighting Andrade in June? I've got 100 million reasons!"

Seriously though, if Loeffler let GGG fight Andrade now he's not doing his job. Who in their right mind would fight Andrade with the Canelo payday on the line? Andrade before Canelo is the ultimate example of super high risk and low reward.
