    Trying to make him seem like a cab driver. He is 22-3 all 3 losses were decisions. His last loss was to geale who is ranked #5 in the world at the moment, and it was a fairly close fight.

    GGG haters are just trying to discredit his opponent, this guy is actually a good fighter. These same haters didn't say anything when ward fought la bomba rodriguez.

    I agree. Adama is a tough, durable guy who has never been stopped.

    Golovkin will have his hands full here.

    I won't be surprised if the fight goes 12 rounds.

    Adama is a tough underrated sob, trust me !

    rodriguez was 24-0 when ward fought him.

    ggg is going to ko adama. i've seen footage. he's nothing special. going the distance with geale is not the same thing as going the distance with ggg. he won't hear the final bell.

    Ward had been physically ready to fight for a long long time before the E-rod fight... according to him. Whens his next ring date?

    But when? Its been 2.5 months.

    GGG last fought a couple weeks before Ward... and is already fighting again. Ward doesnt even have a date or opponent yet.

    At this rate, if the GGG camp desire for Murray or Geale pans out in April... Golovkin will have fought twice, vs one top rated and one fringe contender before Ward even has his next fight scheduled.

    :think:think

    Lacklustre opponent for a dude who's touted to be the best at his weight. Adama is solid at best and that's not the standard Golovkin should aim for. That's what all this is about. Dismissing Adama doesn't make you a hater. Embracing him makes you a nuthugger rather because fights this low profile shouldn't happen any more at this stage of Golovkin's career. He's into his 30s and unlikely to improve, if anything things will start deteriorating in his mid 30s - why waste your time?

    At least he's not 31 y/o fighting off TV in a dead division.:D

    Broner was good enough to send Burns into hiding..

    So your saying instead of staying busy, in camp, and making money fighting 4 times a year... a fighter should hold out and only fight once or twice a year when a better known opponent can be matched?

    I think you have to look at the whole year. If 2014 passes, and despite the much higher profile and much higher fight purses that should be in the offering due to TV ratings... GGG camp doesnt land any top 5 opposition then maybe I would agree with you.

    Judging one fight with a 6 figure payday that happens in a timeframe where equivalent mid level beltholders in the same and other divisions wouldn't and dont even have their next fight set just comes across as blind hate.

    Not even talking big name lineal holders like Ward or FMJ or Danny Garcia.

    Whens Provodnikovs next fight? Quillin? Sturm? Andrade? etc..
