Monzon and Hagler stayed at 160, why can't GiGi?

Different era's of Middleweights. Hagler was in a way tougher division back then compared to GGG's current crop of Middleweights. The big money fights that he seeks are divisions north of his so it makes a lot of sense to move up. Outside of Jacobs and Canelo the MW division is weak, It will take fighters from 154 ready to move up to make any interesting fights for GGG at MW. Charlo, Andrade and Lara come to mind.

 

These dwarf mofos can't understand that.

 

Who is GGG's version of Mugabi?

 

Because other fighters are required to take risks and challenge themselves.:deal

It should be no different for GG.

If Golovkin were from the US (and God forbid,from the hood),he'd be called the biggest coward in the sport.

 

Danny Jacobs!

 

I wouldnt mind GGG vs Lee or Saunders maybe even Eubanks.

 

He can. Middleweight has some good prospects coming in from the amateurs. Murata, Derevyanchenko, Khtrov (if he can become what he once was), Quigley, etc.

 

:roll:

 

Monzon and Hagler fought in tougher eras than Golovkin.

You guys LOVE to call other fighters cowards,but you handle Gigi like he's a baby.

Everybody has to move up and take risks but lil gg.

When Broner was in a dead lightweight division he was derided.

 

Why is the bar set so low for a fighter you claim is so great?

 

A low bar is being undisputed king of a division? Huh, I didn't know that.

 

IdC about Monzon...But What about Vito Antufermo? Mugabi? Minter? You're too main stream to even know about them it seems. And another thing Hagler had to fight 50 pro fights before he even got a shot at the title, These guys you mentioned were on the tale end of Haglers career and were Damn good or Great fighters. Better then anything GGG will ever fight. Look at Leonard, he moved up how many weight classes?

 

When that division is as dead as MW..yes.

Why can't Gigi take risks and challenges like everybody else?

I mean since hes sooo great.
