Comments Thread For: Golovkin: Fighting Kovalev Was Only Option For Canelo

[icha]

You're right I was wrong. I was referring to the original stipulations that DAZN laid out but as you pointed out Andrade was an option later.

agreed, golovkin prob didnt even know DAZN changed that for the november date...

What is Triple “D” talking about. D as in Triple Drunk. Canelo had other options. What about Andrade, Saunders, Charlo, Callum Smith. DAZN probably would have approved any of them outside of Sergey. With that said, I like the fact the Canelo is fighting Sergey instead of any of them. More intriguing.

Anyway we are getting two good fights out of this.

Funny thing is that ggg talked sht & talked his way outta the only payday hed ever take a risk to get. He ******ly had to open his dumb borat mouth about"im canelos boss,come September you'll all see that he'll fight me despite him saying otherwise,because Dazn is his boss & my partner,they tell canelo what to do & they're my partner so Im his boss"

If that salty botoxface, saw puppet lookalike mofcka didn't open his ****** mouth he wouldn't be left out in the cold while canelo further reduces his career legacy to rubbel.

He could've done what Jacobs did to get the fight by keeping professional with his boss nelo but instead he wanted to yet again lie to himself by thinking he is anything but nelos career coattail rider,if not for nelo DivaG wouldn't even have nowhere near the contract he does right now,& he wouldn't be allowed to cherrypick the weakest link for yet another vacant belt.

Ggg is the one who had no choice but to fight Deryev because unlike nelo who can fight any champ & is fighting who nobody believed he would yet again to be great,ggg has a very small list of potential cherries that fit his formula of eternal bumslaying:the criteria is: No charlo/Andrade/or anyone bigger than ggg(he didn't even want Jacobs because"too big doe"),no catchweights except for Rolls,no moving even 1 lb except for Rolls & nobody who is not completely 1 dimensional & preferably who has a weak chin & very lil power like Deryev. If Deryev didn't fall in gggs lap hed be scheduled to fight Ellie Seckback next or charlie zelenof,no way in hell he fights charlo/booboo or anyone above 160.. Facts

Get off of Canelo's cawk. Your posts are getting increasingly ridiculous to read We all know you have ginger boys posters all over your bedroom wall and hes your God but dont let that cloud the facts here. Its not GGG's fault that canelo does not want to fight him again... the trilogy is asking to be made, even his promoter wants it but ginger pus dont want that work and is playing his usual trick of picking vulnerable or fading fighters.

GGG does not cherry pick; fighters DONT WANT TO fight him - ask Canelo. Tell me one fighter or mandatory that GGG has ever ducked? I can tell you a good few that ginger puss has... Remember when he ducked GGG in 2016, vacated the WBC strap and WENT DOWN to bully Smith for the WBO 154lb title huh...

GGG just needs to keep Canelo out of his mouth

Tell the reporters to get better questions. He got annoyed with them today for asking the same ****. You act like he's bringing his name up first.

GGG was sent to the shadow realm for 9 months and then refused to fight Andrade, the fight DAZN wanted to make.

I wouldn’t be fighting Maciej Sulecki and GGG Boxing wouldn’t have fought Steve Rolls if GGG would have accepted a fight with me,” said Andrade on his social media. “GGG is #1 in the World Boxing Organization. He was given the opportunity to fight me and said NO WAY! #TRUTH #TallBlackandHandsome #ATeam.

“TRUTH, DAZN USA tried to make the fight between GGG Boxing and I as soon as he signed. Tom Loeffler and GGG said, ‘absolutely not! We aren’t fighting Andrade in our first DAZN fight,'” said Andrade. Oscar De La Hoya [and] Canelo know that, which is why they’re telling GGG to get a belt!”

Straight from Andrade's mouth. GGG ducked him, and for that reason Canelo said he doesn't deserve a trilogy. If GGG had taken that fight and beaten Andrade... the pressure would have been immense for Canelo to fight him in September and he probably jumps at the chance to become undisputed middleweight champion.

No one cares about GGG fight.. awww lol

GGG’s fight is in 3 days yet tickets can be had all over the arena for low prices. $100 for a lower level seat for a championship fight in MSG. They should move him to the smaller theatre in MSG.
I’m sure DAZN is thrilled to be paying BBB side top dollar for a fight their giving tickets away too.

Bad answer by GGG. He told the reporter off for asking a Canelo question but still offered an answer. That's like eating your burger and then asking for a refund because it was cold.

What he should have said when asked why Canelo is fighting Kovalev is suggest that the journalist asks Canelo's shrink, as it's not his job to analyze how Canelo's mind works
