take on all comers
160 no catch weights Other fighters should learn from this kid 160 is MW not 158 and win or lose no excuses That's my dude right there I am becoming more and more of a fan of this guy as time goes by Don't sleep on Gabe, he is being thrown to the lions like every other relatively young Puertorican fighter in the last few years has but some how I have a feeling he gonna pull of the major upset. a taste of that big money can motivate a man to do the so called "impossible"

He probably didn't have much choice tbf, if his time tried to negotiate a catch weight fight they'd have likely been told to do one, despite the fact that GGG could probably make 158 without much hassle.
Rosado is a good fighter though and deserves his big opportunity, just a shame that it wasn't at 154. |

40 years ago that meant something not today he just fought a guy who had not lost in 9 years and was a defensive nightmare, on NBC for just $4K that' not right i know everybody think he is in trouble but I think GGG is in trouble too you will be shocked by the respect that GGG will have for Rosado this is the best guy he has faced so far and Gabe is naturally bigger than Golovkin |

GGG offers catchweight giving a chance for Rosado to win.
Declines. His confidence almost makes me doubt a Golovkin victory. Almost. |

Ya I like Rosado a lot, especially since he's from Philly. Very entertaining and down to fight anybody. He's going to get killed by GGG though

To be honest, as a Puerto Rican who has a strong connection to Phily via my mother's family I'd go out the streets to celebrate. But as a boxing fan, I predict a Golovkin domination. Faster, stronger than past opponents.

One has to respect Rosado for not going for the catchweight against GGG. I seriously doubt Gabe will get the win here, but he certainly has my respect.
