Does GGG have a weak resume or was he ducked?

[TheUntouchable]

How wasn't Rigo ducked? They literally all said they didn't want to fight him because he brings no money and didn't want to take the risk. Didn't one of them drop the title rather then fight him? I think it was Frampton.

And ya Cotto wouldn't have looked good. Sturm was another one GGG was gonna fight Pirog but then he got injured.

No, Rigos team couldn't get him a visa for the UK for his fight against Dickens so they had to postpone that fight. And 2 weeks after Rigo beat Dickens Frampton fought Santa Cruz in another weight class.

Id say it just unfortunate circumstances in getting him big fights but yea ducked.

Qullian talked it up but never deliverd and Jacobs came

Chavez jr blew it before it could get made

Eubank jr got 💵 greedy and priced himself out in negotiations

Andy Lee was going to fight but a family loss happend and had to cancel the fight

Martinez was just to old and he knew he was to old and would get ktfo

Cottto knew he had no chance

Hassan N Dam his excuse was didn't want to give up his interm belt lol

Seems like everyone is forgetting Peter Quillin.

Edit....someone just mentioned him.

With BJS winning GGG resume has now come in question by some. So why do you think GGG resume lacks names because he was ducked or GGG just didn't fight anybody?

Saunders beat Eubank Jr, Monroe Jr and Lemieux. GGG was ducked by the former two, and knocked out the latter two. The only middleweight with a better resume than GGG, is Canelo.

For example take someone like Rigo who was ducked by LSC, Frampton, Mares, Quigg. LSC saying he would fight him but his father said no hes boring, Frampton and Mcguigan saying hes boring and brings no money, Mares saying he would loss to Rigo. Does GGG have opponents that made excuses like that not to fight him?

I remember Sergio and Cotto making excuses anyone else?

Saunders said GGG would knock him and Eubank Jr out on the same night. Canelo vacated the WBC belt just so he wouldn't have to fight GGG, and now has beef with the WBC for trying to put the fight together. Eubank Jr ducked a contract to fight GGG, which is why the Brook match happened.

1. There is no argument that he wasn't ducked. That is way too obvious.
2. Weak for what? If you rate him as an ATG middleweight, yes, his whole career resume is weak for that. If you rate him as the top middleweight RIGHT NOW, it's clearly the strongest of the active middleweights. Look at every match against top ten opponents at the middleweight limit and tell me his resume is weak compared to anyone. Golovkin has been the number one middleweight contender under Ring's champion for over four years, I think. lol Nah, wasn't ducked.

He was really avoided a few years ago.Around 2013-2015 nobody wanted any parts of him. Ever since he lost his aura everyone wants to fight him now.He can still beat any top guy though just not the killer he was.

[R_Walken]

He had a weak resume because he was ducked by all the elite names in the MW division( Sturm, Sergio,Cotto, Canelo & Saunders (for a couple years ) even the 2nd tier guys like Barker when he had a strap he wasn't worth the risk to most likely get beat down

So he did what he had to which was fight a lot of middle of the road guys often and winning in dramatic fashion to build up his profile to where it started to make sense for the big $ guys to fight him because he brought $ to the table

Now Age and his competition level has made him look beatable and he has a big $ scrap with Canelo under his belt and has some financial clout and can probably get all the top MW in the ring with him ( Canelo & Jacobs again, Saunders , Charlo & Andrade )

It took a couple years but now he can get the legit names in the ring with him.

[RussB23]

Ducked by whom?

Cotto
Quillin
Canelo for like 2 years until GGG looked beatable
Froch after saying hes too big and too strong

Pretty much every top fighter until he looked vulerable.

[Robbie Barrett]

Why do people keep saying Martinez ducked him?

It took this to let you know?
