Whom do you suggest that GGG should be fighting at MW? Cotto? Quillin? :think Or you suggest he move up? GGG is going to collect the other belts and force Cotto and Quillin to fight him to unify. The only one with balls to fight him out of those two is Cotto but Cotto would make more money fighting Canelo, Mayweather or Pac. I highly doubt Cotto would choose GGG over those huge paydays.
I am very glad, good fight. Soliman deserves a payday, he is a true warrior. Hopefully Cotto vacates by next year, and GGG fight whoever gets the belt next. Quilin would be a great fight if only kid chocolate would find his balls and accept the challenge of the God of War.
I see his next three fights being Soliman, N'Dam (via victory over Stevens for IBF mando), and Rubio (via victory over Macklin for vacant WBC) over the next 9 months. Froch, Chavez, Ward, Cotto, Alvarez will all require ppv money. Froch-Chavez and Cotto-Alvarez will likely fight each other over Golovkin. Even Kessler said he would require $4mill in order to face Golovkin this fall.
Soliman is a disgraced cheat that reaaly is.t that good. The fact that people are trying to legitimize this waste of time because he has a belt are part of the problem. Ggg is the uncrowded man at 160 and would beat and be favored over everyone in that weak division. For what ever reason his biggest fans love to see him collect trinkets of over matched opponents than to truly fight real challenges at 168. He's 32 not 23 with a fine amateur record and the skills to back it up he can handle himself. It's time he leaves 160 fights with soliman abd geale are a waste of time we already knew the outcome going in. Fight froch fight ward fights that at least give you some doubt because there's no one at 160 that will.
I'm hoping that Cotto or Alvarez will give Golovkin a go. A win over either of those and the Kazakh will pick up some 'mainstream' cred/following.
HBO was obviously trying to provoke Froch fight with the way they portrayed his interview. So who knows. Might happen. Takes two to fight, if Froch Kessler and Chavez arent signing the contract (because they can face each other for more $$$) no reason not to grab another 160 belt. Doesnt matter how good you think Soliman is or isnt. To most people, more belts = more resume and more pressure to face Golovkin. Otherwise I agree with you, but I kind of wish people would stop thinking that a fighter can land a fight with X just because he wants to.
Double standards? :think That's the same excuses *****s used to justify Floyd fighting Ortiz and Guerrero.
Pbf is a proven atg fighting in his 5th weight class his resume is also great. Ggg on the other hand has a weak resume for a 32 year old fighter. You can't compare the two.:deal guerrero would actually be the best win on gggs resume p4p speaking.
Not a hope Guerrero was dragged up two divisions just like Marquez That would be like ggg making Dragging amir khan up to 160 and calling it a good win
Sounds like Roy Jones at 175. People said he was P4P #1 for doing that. Why the double standard for GGG? :huh
