Comments Thread For: GBP Prez: Munguia Deserves Shot At Golovkin, Has Cinco de Mayo Weekend Written All Over It

Three letters:

PBC.

It isn't that it is impossible, or even unlikely. If both stay at 160, I can see a collision course in a year or so, depending on Trip G shelf life. But hammering out a deal between the partners of DAZN, GBP, and the PBC brass and their broadcast partners would take a ton of work. I just do not see it until the dollars are bigger.

I like Munguia, and I give him a better shot to last 12 with Golovkin than most. I would love to see it.

Ryota Murata is also a sneaky good fight for Golovkin. And there may be a ton more money for that in Murata's home turf than a Munguia fight.

Valid points.

No, age and the Canelo fights did that.

Well, I stand corrected.

To me he looked lethargic but that could be athletic decline. he just could not pull the trigger in time. Shots didn't flow right. He seemed slower. usually that's the beginning of being shot. I think maybe the flu and that both played a factor but we will not know until he does get in there with a top 5 kind of guy again.

Yep well said. Just still hard to tell. He at least doesn't look completely done.

Agreed

I'd rather see GGG vs Canelo III on CDM.

Munguia still gots a lot to prove before deserves a big fight & he's still a beggar who can't choose with big fights.

So you think Szeremeta deserved GGG fight, but Munguia not?

[Drew Bundini Br]

GG fought tomato cans most of his record and when he finally stepped up comp he got exposed as a straight up easy to hit up the middle fighter. Any A lister at 160 has great shot at beating him. Charlo or Andrade might stop him!

[Bronx2245]

I agree. It's the next best pay day for both if it's in Saunders backyard.

But to Andrade credit he wasnt the one that ****ed up the Saunders fight he actually stepped up but as with so much of his career it ended up being a let down and fell through

I know Andrade wants Saunders, because he knows what's at stake! He should do what Usyk did and enforce the WBO rule which would make him Saunders' mandatory if he moves up to 168! Saunders already had a voluntary for Murray, so play time is over!

Make it happen props to Manguia for stepping up . Will he lose most likely but it will make him better. I’ll rather have boxers fight the best and lose then fight tomato cans and say they the best.

He will get a payday. If he fights Andrade or Charlo, he will lose for much less money.

Munguia is top 10 guy, but not a champion level.

Nonsense!!! U can't recognize GG's first 35 opponents because they worked in the corn fields and the only real guys he fought were Canelo and Jacobs on his resume so he's not too old. B hop fought until he was 50 and has a better resume than GG so let's cut the too old theory. Would u like to see GG vs Charlo?

"Worked in the cornfields?" Are you an idiot? How disrespectful is that to those guys, there are at least 4 different world champions in there. Geale was unified middleweight champ. Lemiuex was IBF champ. I'm not saying they're hall of famers but I swear some boxing fans are such a cancer.
