    The past greats are the only reason why the belts mean anything though. The past greats made the belt. The belt didn't make the greats. The only reason why for example the world MW title means anything is because guys like Monzon and Hagler gave it honor and prestige.

    He will fight his mando and then go from there. Give the guy some time he just won the title not even a month ago.

    Congrats to Gervonta for making it to the big leagues. He should vacate a title if he wants experience against semi-contenders and if he's not man enough to defend in the big leagues after he gets a mandatory out of the way. This already tells me he doesn't have HEART.

    Everyone has given him huge props for getting an IBF belt. In fact, I was vocal in my support of him for Daring To Be Great, unlike his mentor Mayweather who never fought an at or near prime ATG or even higher-mid-lower mid HOF level opponent in his 19 years of boxing!

    The past greats, the past elites, even the good fighters in the history are all parts of it. Like I said, the greats become so because they do what's unexpected from a random talent or even an elite talent. To bring up Roberto Duran or Thomas Hearns is just silly. There's no shame in not being as great as guys like that whatsoever, or guys like Hagler or Monzon for that matter.

    He should've jumped up weight classes and dared to be great, which thus involves sometimes making sacrifices (p.s I don't care for Golovkin, he's not one of my favourite fighters).

    There's an endless number of boxers of old who are not great and have stepped up to the plate.

    What happens after one mando? How many mandos does he have to fight? How long shall he hold the IBF belt hostage.
