I like GGG but he needs to move up!

Good post, but what do you mean when you say that neither Dirrell brother is competition?

 

these idiots will always make excuses even if ggg cleaned up 168 they would want him to keep moving up all the way to heavyweight lol.they just don't like him so they will just keep setting the bar higher it must really suck to be them ggg is not losing anytime soon.:deal

 

exactly who is there at SMW? an inactive Ward? an old Froch on the verge of retirement? Abraham, Stieglitz or maybe MW Sturm?

at MW there's Cotto (WBC, if he decides to fight GGG his mandatory) Quillin-Lee winner, Saunders, N'Dam, and up and comers like Jacobs, Lemieux, Monroe Jr, Khytrov or Murata, so GGG will be spoiled for choice in the next few years

 

ward has to fight froch next, so why move up right now? why don't you guys harp on kid duck-a-lot, for not facing golovkin?

 

I honestly can't see how GGG takes out Andre Dirrell.

His career has stalled recently, but he's got immense talent.

As great as he is, GGG isn't a huge guy, and he's relatively easy to hit.

Andre Dirrell has great footwork, great skills, great hand speed, and he's a 6'1 southpaw, with a 75' reach, weighing in as a LHW on fight night.

I think that would be the worst possible opponent for GGG, along with James Degale.

A horrible style match up from GGG's perspective.

I think he'd have a nightmare with either of those guys.


:good

 

and canelo will be at middleweight soon as well.:deal

 

I rather see GGG fight different calibre opponents 4 times a year than Ward fight 2 weight-drained zombies in 3 years any day of the week :thumbsup

 

exactly, GGG doesn't have to move up to 168 for a PPV fight :deal

 

He's a MW. He should stay at MW unless he is offered a big money fight at a different weight.

 

just because he massacres the current crop of MW's means he should move up? even if he does have a chance of capturing a belt at 168, his priority is 160 as he has fought there his entire career, he should only move up for big fights, seeing as putting on even a few pounds of muscle and latter draining yourself back causes severe strain on the body, it's one of the reasons Canelo will be shot by the time he's 30

 

I respect your opinion, but amateur fights from over ten years ago mean absolutely nothing whatsoever.

We're looking hypothetically, if GGG moved up and fought him now.

Andre Dirrell has many advantages.

He would would knock out DeGale easily? Based on what?

I'm a huge fan of GGG's, but I think you're getting a little carried away here.

GGG isn't that hard to hit, and he'd have his hands full with two fast southpaws who are significantly bigger than he is.

He isn't a big guy, and as yet, we've no idea how he'd fare against 6ft SMW's.

 

since golovkin fights about four times a year, he has time to beat cotto, quillin, andcanelo, and still move up by this time next year.
