    It did. I was embarrassed for him watching his disgraceful antics against Calzaghe and Roy jones Jr.
    I do have a hard time believing he stayed so good for so long naturally though. I wish PEDS didn't exist so I would have to be so skeptical.

    He only obtained the real WBA belt 4 fights ago against Geale.

    The rest are micky mouse paper defences.

    LOL. Too bad Bhop fought most of those guys AFTER the age of 36. Putting Jackson and Holmes on there is LAUGHABLE as well.

    Age for age Golovkins resume dumps all over Bhops. If you want to go by number of fights it is even more laughable.

    lol. Golovkin's opposition makes Hopkins' opposition look like the golden era of middleweight boxing.

    It seems the only Russian boxer who is eager to face the sport's top opponents is Kovalev.
    Klitscho, Lomanchenko, Golovkin are all duckers.
    In the end, Little g won't be qualified to carry Bernard Hopkins's jock strap.

    GGG going for Hopkins record is fantastic news., This will make THEM so angry. GGG should start doubling up on some defenses like Hopkins did with Echols and Allen. Perhaps GGG can even dive head first out of the ring and cliam injury like Hopkins did in the first Robert Allen fight.

    There's a chance we see Golovkin fight at MW until he's 36 and beyond as well, he said at his media day recently that he feels like he is in his 20's. He's got the all clear to spend the time there and break Hopkins' record.

    So, Macklin, Stevens and Proska are cartoon defenses ? :patsch

    Anyway, good luck contacting your congressman.

    Great strategy. I like it, and I've said on here before that GGG should try to do this.
