    Dirrell actually did officially beat GGG if I'm not correct. They fought 3 times, GGG won twice i think and Dirrell won once, I had DIrrell winning one of the fights GGG officially won, and I didn't watch the other one. Honestly though right now I have GGG absolutely destroying Dirrell on points or KO, he's much better suited for the pros. I also have GGG beating Lara comfortably, I mean look at how much trouble Canelo gave him, GGG is a much better pressure fighter than Canelo who's not a good come foward fighter. He's a counter puncher that thrives on guys that come foward like Kirkland and Angulo.

    Like i said before, GGG can beat Lara too but he has to give Lara the chance.... Lara is the biggest legitimate threat to GGG right now.....Forget about Ward or canelo......

    Lara is a 154 pounder though, is he going to go up, also can he fight on HBO? I don't mind seeing that fight, but honeslty there are too many factors involved that won't allow the fight to happen.

    Golovkin beat Dirrel 23 to 18 and I think they only fought once to my knowledge.

    Pretty sure I've seen posters say they fought 2-3 times, the only one I saw was the one on youtube, and I had Dirrell winning that even though GGG got the decision. A lot of his landed shots weren't counted, while Golovkin was clearly favored.

    I don't know what they're talking about I think they fought once, as far as how I scored it, it was close, closer than 23-18, I don't think either dominated the other.

    Yeah, the politics of boxing wont allow it but i mean GGG fans call for floyd to fight GGG at 154 but GGG cant fight Lara @154 because he brings no money, but GGG fights monroe??:huh it doesnt make sense to me...

    Yep, they fought twice http://www.fighthype.com/news/article18327.html

    "I actually fought him twice. I fought him in Mississippi and I came out with the decision in that one. And I fought him maybe 3 months later in the Olympics and I believe I won that fight, but didn't [get the win]"

    You said it yourself it's not because he doesn't bring money, it's because of the politics. Monrone is just a tune-up, and how many GGG fans really call for the floyd fight. I see that it's mostly pac****s calling for that, they jumped to the next wagon since pac got dismantled.

    Also on his wikipedia page" He avenged the Despaigne loss 41-28 in their second bout later and world champ Gennady Golovkin 15-14 at the 2003 USA vs. Kazakhstan Dual". And on many other sites, that he beat Golovkin in 2003, and lost in 2004. Pretty sure they fought twice :good, it's okay to admit when you're wrong cst.
