    No doubt about it

    But GGG gets a pass right?!

    Double standard BS

    No doubt about it GGG is being fed a opponent who poses little.to no threat. Monroe is.getting steamrolled

    IF Canelo fought Monroe, everyone.would.be furious, even if.it was a STAY BUSY BOUT

    True....GGG gets a pass

    I just wish his fans would stop pushing the myth that he's avoided

    He's a great fighter and beats everyone @ MW but no1's running from a good payday...even if it comes with a beating from GGG

    Except guys are lining up to fight Floyd and Pac - for the payday if nothing else. Anyone from 140-160 takes a fight with either guy without hesitation. They don't have to worry about the best guys not wanting to face them.

    If you're fighting 4/5 times a year and fight a guy like Monroe (when no better options seem to be available), I'll give anyone a pass. Better that than just sitting and waiting for a fight.

    It's not official who GGG fights until El Chicano makes a thread about it.

    any big fight is scrutinized, knucklehead. the word you're probably looking for is VILIFIED.

    Its just one gimme fight

    Its kinda BS because any MW fight is a gimme fight for Golovkin so I think they should have aimed a bit higher

    But unless this becomes a trend, I'm not gonna be too harsh on Golovkin

    Still, I really think he should move up sooner rather than later

    I don't know the story around it yet, is it GGG ducking elite fighters or the big names in his division are the ones ducking him..

    I hear absolutely no talks about a big fight getting pushed that involves them big names with GGG.. What's up with that? Care to enlighten me on this?

    GGG fights quite a bit. I have no problem with him taking a few opponents who aren't as heralded.

    Mayweather vs Guerrerro
    Pacqioua vs Rios and algeri
    Mayweather vs Lopez and Madaina X2.

    It's not like GGG can just say.....Hey Canelo, Cotto, Quillin, Lemiuex, come get some of this.:huh:huh:huh

    Canelo will fight GGG in 2016, now that he's with HBO, would make sense at 160
    Cotto is clearly ducking :-(
    Lemieux is getting sued by GYM, fight with N'dam is on hold :?
    Lee-Quillin winner is a great fight for GGG and would be a lot easier to make if Lee wins :good
