    I'm tired of hearing people talking daily about his fight against big name fighters like Martinez, Chavez Jr., Canelo, Froch, or Ward but then he fights nobody but some no name fighters. I've been waiting for over a year to watch him rumble with them but still have to keep waiting and waiting. :mad:

    Can anyone tell me when it will happen or what's the problem preventing Golovkin from making those big fights against them?

    Is everyone scared of him to death?

    2014- TBA
    2014- TBA
    2015- TBA; this is probably the one we can expect to be against Sergio or if GGG moves up against Chavez Jr, Froch, Groves, or Ward. Aside from Sergio/Cotto winner, there is no one at MW deemed elite. Sturm, Geale, Quillin are really the next best...

    Basically yes. The fighter he should target that won't duck him is Froch once business is settled with Groves.

    Ward is probably not scared but deluded about hos drawing power and prices himself out of negotiations with top level fighters.

    GGG said, " I would fight anyone from 154 -168."

    The simple question I would like to ask you is " What the hell are you waiting for? "

    Probably a contract. It's looking like Golovkin will fight Chavez Jr this summer. Is Chavez Jr a big enough name fighter to garner your approval as an opponent?

    No he didn't. Laughable statement. Ducking guys from other divisions? Sanchez said they would fight guys at 154 and 168 if the right fight comes to them.

    When did Ward and Lara send in offers to K2?

    ...crickets...
