    Well, this should be an indication that he should move up then right? There's alot better competition at 168.

    But who's gonna fight him? Are the other guy's permitted to fight him? No

    Usually when you can't get fights in your own division, you seek bigger fights somewhere else. Do you want him to wait another 3-5 years to see if he can unify the mw belts? Of course not. Cmon man

    I actually think guys like Andrade, Lara and Canelo are still at 154 is because of GGG. I'd love for them to move up.

    Yes he took a lot of shots in that fight, not just single shots but power punches in combination and he just kept marching forward. While Ouma was smaller and not a noted big hitter nobody can keep take shots like that without having a pretty good chin.

    When Golovkin does eventually lose, like most fighters do, it probably won't be due to having a weak chin.

    I hate that the Chavez Jr fight didn't work out I think that would have been a great test. Chavez Jr has an iron chin and is a huge MW would have been a great fight. A lot of guys refused to fight GGG Quillen and Cotto not GGGs fault.

    The thing is, if the champs don't want to fight GGG they have the right not to do so..everythinh else you posted i didn't read, because i don't debate fanboys!

    He's Golovking,Golovgod to you guys p4p no.1 according to the fans who voted for him on Lampleys fight game, yet hasn't faced one top elite fighter in his division. Lol. Nobody wants to fight you at 160? Move up its that simple. It's better then waiting around for the beltholders to vacate then fight some bum for all the belts..

    Lemieux said he isn't ready for GGG, what do you want him to do? Fight him prematurely? Shouldn't he be permitted to wait if he wants to?

    Lee might fight quillon, but if quillin wins is he going to fight him? Most likely not. He'd rather go fight Dann . Jacobs. So again, you guy's (his fans) say he should have the right to fulfill his goal? Ok but if no one want to fight him, move up and take care of buisness.

    Geale landed some big shots on him but you dont realise because he just shrugged them off. Be interesting to see what happens when Cotto vacates because hes too scared to fight him

    Ward says" GGG" doesn't bring in enough money, GGG says"ward doesn't do good ratings, and bring in enough money", yet GGG's fanbase say GGG shouldn't give into wards demands? Which one is it? Because everyone knows if the fight did take place it would be on HBOPPV, and would do at least 500k in ppv sales which is a ppv success!

    With Ward now signed with rocnation there will be more money in the pot for GGG to make, then there would be to wait around for someone to fight him at 160. Let me ask you a question doe....do you want fighters like Canelo,Lara,Andrade,Trout to move upto fight GGG?? And if so why would you be against GGG to move up? Because he has the right to wait around until someone wants to unify the titles at 160?

    The one eyed man is king in the land of the blind!!!

    I thought Rubio would present a decent test...he threw in the towel on the opening bell.

    He was never visibly hurt...I was there close enough to see his goofy ass smile as he was getting up after the count!!!

    I believe his promoter or trainer fired him in embarrassment afterwards!!!

    I think Chavez is garbage but you got a point. For GGG I think it would be an interesting match up.

    I still think GGG shreds his faces and TKOs him late.

    Ignoring Ward for a sec since people get so defensive when you bring up his name. Canelo gets a lot of underserved **** losing to Mayweather isn't a bad loss noone has beaten him I personally thought he beat Trout/Lara in close fights but if you want to make an argument Trout has a better claim at deserving a win than Lara.

    Head to head Canelo has wayyy more skills than GGG and a way wayyyy better resume. GGG is mostly just a power puncher with good foot/hand placement. Offensively Canelo is more diverse in punch selection, combination punching, & and speed defensively Canelo is super underrated the kid doesn't get hit clean all that often and is very good at slipping punches. I compare Canelo to Marquez in style/approach GGG isn't some defensive counter puncher or out fighter he's a guy that comes to fight. To all the people talking about styles if anything GGG's style is made for Canelo to look good vs.

    :patsch it's seriously embarrassing how often people say this yet nobody who has gotten in the ring with him says that, regarding the GGG part of course. If you honestly believe that, then I can't wait till Golovkin and Canelo fight.
