    Cant get up for this fight.

    Kirkland is a banger, but his defense is pathetic, and a precision banger with even more power than JK, and an iron chin........


    This one will be over in 3 or less.:-(

    I think Golovkin and his team doesn't want any part of Andre Ward at this stage.
    Didn't Golovkin's team refused a fight against Andre Ward?

    I agree completely. If he were the beast people want him to be, why keep fighting jr middles?? People never want to hear basic logic though. Logically if guys his own size were "scared" , a Jr Middle should be petrified.

    They claimed they'll fight him down the road.

    They are matching GG like he is soon to be 22 instead of 32.:lol:

    GG isn't giving himself much of a chance to actually beat Ward by fighting these soft touches.

    Something isn't right about this guy.

    They are aweful careful about moving him along...Sergio Mora was too much of a risk.

    I want to see Golovkin against a proven middleweight. Is Felix Sturm up to anything lately?

    Don't take our word for it. Sergio's and Geale's promoters are on YouTube saying they don't want their MW fighter fighting Golovkin. Dan Rafael at ESPN wrote a piece on all the guys ducking GGG. So, yeah, they are. It's not even arguable, except by prejudiced idiots.
