GGG fans should put RESPEK on Salidos name

[JohnCastellanos]

Let’s keep it real for a second, Salido didn’t take the easy route like Golovkin.

[Diegosome1]

Didn’t take it easy like Canelo either

Who the hell was GGG supposed to fight during that period where so many outright unashamedly ducked him? Now that he's declined sure the vultures are circling but of course he'll be more hesitant to pick certain fights he can probably ill afford at this point if he wants to cash out.

Ward, Andrade, Lara, even Sergio Mora but I think it was clear his team wasn't keen on the idea of putting GGG in with slick fighters.

Your absolutely right since fighting only bums at 160 was the only option. Too big for 154 and too tiny for 168 or LH. Fighting a huge 147 pounder made the most sense since everything else was too much to ask at the time and we all know how against catchweights Golovkin was, we could have never asked him to give Brook the chance @155. You know what everybody’s problem is? They just expect GGG live up to his reputation and shame on them for even mentioning it

Apart from Ward, I've never heard of any of those guys calling for a fight. Even Ward was apprehensive about it. I'm not saying GGG was some killer, I think he's massively overrated, but there no doubting that most fights he sought to try to unify the middleweight division (his ultimate goal) didn't happen because of ducking.

sergio mora? he was relevant how? some bad faith arguments are even being throw around how he ducked saunders. is he not slick? yet they offered him the fight for 1.5 million which was the same as lemiuex just got...lowballed? then he signed to fight him again if the canelo fight didnt come off. too slick! ward we have already been over multiple times. ward did not want the fight and tried to fight dmitri sartison. you cant dispute that. then ihis offer in 2015 called for him to delay the scheduled canelo cotto fight in 2016. irrational. yes he should have fought andrade but thats not a huge miss since he hasnt done anything yet but listing mora? what did he miss there?

he was canelo's mandatory and canelo didnt want to fight yet. did you forget that? he also offered saunders and jacobs the fight for 1.5 million. remember ggg himself was only making 2 million at that point so you cant claim those were lowball offers. those were the top 3 guys in the division im not sure why you are trying to trick people into thinking he was ducking anyone. he even was scheduled to fight eubank jr who was a solid top 10 guy but he didnt take the fight so brook did, and it wasnt a good fight but it was a the biggest money fight for ggg. i thought boxing was a business? what happened there? hes supposed to fight unranked mora instead to make you happy? yeah i'm sure you would be on here listing how great a win that was lmao
