    160lb King. :deal

    Tell Martinez, Cotto et al to stop ducking him and we'll have a proper unified champion who will go down as an ATG. :good

    I wanted GGG to face Martinez ages ago but we all know he didn't want it.

    Do I want GGG to fight him now? Probably not, bit of a backward step but I don't see Cotto or Quillin stepping up any time soon.

    Cotto is Middleweight king.

    GGG is the best fighter in the division though.

    How long can cotto be considered the middleweight if he ducks Golovkin

    At first I was thinking Kovalev/Stevenson replaced Pacquiao/Mayweather, but then Pacquiao/Mayweather seemed to come back, but then I thought maybe it really was Kovalev/Stevenson but then I thought maybe it would be Golovkin/Martinez, but then it became Golovkin/Ward, but then I went back to thinking Pacquiao/Mayweather was still Pacquiao/Mayweather and now I think it might be Golovkin/Cotto. But there's still a good chance it will be Somebody/Someotherperson. We just can't tell yet. But something is bound to change. (Fingers crossed)

    How do we know he is ducking GGG yet though? Roach was at the Geale vs GGG fight could have been scouting GGG as a future opponent.

    Golovkin is a very good fighter, possibly the best MW in the world. My problems is that the hype surrounding him is huge considering his biggest wins are Macklin and Geale.

    Russians are smoking far too much krokodil and it's making them delusional.

    Anyone who destroys Macklin and Geale within a combined 6 rounds deserves all the praise and hype they get.

    Including being called an ATG despite the fact that there are hundreds of fighters throughout the history of the sport who have accomplished far more? :verysad

    Why hasn't he gone to 168 to prove he's good?

    That's all they got. But the haters are dumb as Hell because he hasn't even full dominated 160 yet.

    It would take most MW's 24 rounds to beat Macklin or Geale, fact, as evidenced by others who beat them.

    GGG did it in 6 rounds.

    End thread.
