    GGG is a middleweight he fights at 160 So naturally he wants to be the undisputed Middleweight champion of the world.
    One big problem No other 160 wants to fight him. The supposed lineal Midd champ Miguel Pretty in Pink Cotto has the look of a deer caught in a cars headlights, sheer terror, at the mention of his name. I'm wondering if there might be another Margarito type hatchet job being hatched to get rid of him:patsch:patsch

    Andrade - Light Middleweight
    Lara - Light Middleweight
    Alvarez - Barely a Middleweight
    Cotto - A Middleweight who's looking for real money. Donating to someone like GGG who has 0 significant wins would be stupid at this late stage of his career

    You GGG fanatics are more shameless than Thai prostitutes.

    Unified mw champ vs unified ww champ, just like back in the day. Floyd has fought at 154 before, tho he dehydrated Canelo and struggled against a faded Oscar. He needs to stop fighting midgets and fight Brook at least.

    So you admit Cotto is afraid to meet GGG huh?? But I guess everyone knows he is anyway
    I'm a GGG supporters not fanatic so maybe you could explain to me why no one wants to fight him?? They call themselves champions & Fighters but theyre actually prima donnas is that it?
    Some boxing fan you are supporting cowards

    Why does he have to move up?? He's a middleweight why should he have to move up when its not his fault all the 160 pounders are scared of him.

    There are allot of good fights for GGG to take at 160. He could take on Saunders, Quillin, Lee and Lemieux. He does not need Cotto or Canelo, they wont fight him either way. If he does not get these fights sooner than later, he should continue decapitating top 10 middleweights with ease, until one of the belt holders finally steps up and challenges GGG. People saw how he dominated unified champion Geale with out problems, and he FOUGHT GEALE AT HIS BEST WEIGHT (160), people are afraid to get beat up by GGG. He destroyed Murray, who was robbed of the belt against Sergio Martinez, Murray could have been the middleweight champion. He destroyed Kassim Ouma, a former middleweight champion. Proksa, a former European middleweight champ. Macklin, a former European middleweight champion. Adama and Rubio challenged for the Middleweight title.

    I think people just read what other people say and regurgitate it. There is nobody at 168 besides Ward, all the famous, popular fighters at 168 have retired. So is GGG supposed to fight only Ward, then what? Move up to fight Beterbiev and Kovalev? Then what? Move up to cruiserweight? :huh GGG has a chance to become an ATG and HOF if he unifies his division first, then he can challenge himself and move up without looking back.

    You become an ATG by unifying the division, you get in to the hall of fame by cleaning out your division. GGG has allot of fights at 160 to make, he can think about moving up after he is done in this division. There is only ONE fighter to fight at 168, that is Ward. Then what? You have no clue what you are talking about :lol:

    David Lemieux, Andy Lee, Quillin, Saunders, once GGG dismantles these fighters, and collects all the belts (which he can), then he can pack on the muscle and move up (which he will eventually). Golovkin cannot just ignore his division :patsch
