Why Would GGG Pick Mungia Over Andrade

[Curt Henning]

obviously Mungia brings in the large Mexican fan ba$e, does Andrade have a fan base? lol

yup jamie has a fanbase...and andrade doesnt

but this type of stuff only applies when it relates to their favorites..if someone they dont like does it they call them out....be consistent....you like golovkin? ok...but call him out on choosing business over the sport

a few years ago golovkins fans said business interests didnt matter and they wanted the best fighting the best and all of that...and that golovkin was different and wanted the best fights...when golovkin showed himself to be like all the others they decided business interests were ok

[Keysandboxing]

Simple...Andrade can beat GGG...Mungia most likely gets battered down by GGG. Plus, to the uneducated boxing public, beating a young kid means more than beating a 32 yro.

Aside from the obvious, being scared to lose, which we know is the answer.

Why would you fight Mungia when you can fight a guy with a belt and then with a win you're only 2 belts away from undisputed, one of those fights against the guy you keep begging for a fight with.

GGG and Andrade have the same promoter. They fight on the same network. No excuse for this fight not to happen next.

Most likely whoever they think will provide the biggest financial gain for Golovkin. Also at this stage of his career he's going to avoid movers because he's slowed down noticably. Heck Canelo has avoided Andrade for almost his entire career since the both shared the same divisions but no critisism from Canelo fans for this.

From the sounds of it, this fight is being pushed by DAZN/Golden Boy.

know why?

because at age 30 canelo already has a better resume than a 38 year old golovkin....canelo has belts from 154-175....he also has fought guys like lara and trout......when golovkins trainer said "go get in line at 160" and loeffler said "he brings no fans and no money plus hes on another network(lara confirmed he wasnt contractually obligated to any network)"....all of this at a point when lara would have been the best scalp on his resume bar none

canelos resume will only get better...and its already better than golovkins

now im sure you will spin what i said with your typical "golovkin superfan excuse BS"...because golovkin never does anything wrong in your eyes and now money and business interests are ok now that golovkin has shown hes about that life....but before it was all "i dont care about money, fans or business....i want the best fighting the best"....

smh

GGG/Andrade should be top priority, with the winner of Munguia/Williams becoming #1 contender.

Has andrade even shown interest in the fight? Can he even make the weight? Even so he is awkward and not very entertaining. If that alone isn't enough to deter ggg the fan appeal aspect will. Jaime AND golovkin play towards a hispanic audience and both have very entertaining styles. Jaime is also kinda green and between him and Andrade he is probably easier to ko in gggs eyes.

i havent heard andrade make any plans to go above 160 yet have you? he still has his 160 strap....so its safer to say yeah he can make weight...and sure hes interested in a golovkin fight....but the a-side has to be interested in order for it to happen

yeah jamie is easier to ko...and makes for a more entertaining fight....which is fine....but what happened to the tune golovkin fans were singing years ago about how they want the best to fight the best and all that? and fans, money, business dont matter?

That was all BS lol you shoulda known that after he wanted no part of Carl froch accepting his challenge and them shutting the door on the ward talk real quick. At this point in his career I'm surprised he hasnt had a fight with Chavez Jr just for the check

oh ive long known it...i just thought you might have been one of those "guys" in denial about it who defends golovkin in every situation and says he never does wrong....im glad you recognize
