    Golovkin fans must all reside in mental institutions or in Trump voter districts.
    They say that Canelo is scared and call him chicken Alvarez, Canelo Y Pollo and other nonsensical names, but the truth is that Golovkin is the one who turned down all offers from GBP to fight.
    They turned down the 155 offer to fight Wade instead and earned $1M.
    Now they turning down a record $15M at the weight they always cried about, 160.
    Golovkin fans want to compare Little g to Ward, but there is absolutely zero doubt that if Ward were offered $15M to fight anyone, he'd take the fight.

    If Golovkin offered Ward $15M to fight at 168, the fight would be made tomorrow. For $15M, Ward would fight Golovkin in his home town. No question. The fight could be made as easy as Kovalev-Ward, if not easier on Ward's side.

    It seems the chicken finger is being pointed in the exact opposite direction then where it should really be pointed. All of the hold-ups and fights that never happened are due to Golovkin and K2.

    Sure Ward would take that, but he'll never get offered that because he's not a draw. Anyone who offered Ward that much money would be losing a lot.

    GBP offering $15M to GGG is because they know they can cash Canelo out and easily make thrice that when all is said and done.

    Part of me wishes GGG just accepted, beat him silly and ended his "cash cow" days.


    The bottom line is all these guys "calling out" GGG are doing so while requesting career-high paydays. And many of which are still turning it down (JCC Jr., Quillin, CEJ, etc.) . Facts say K2 offered Jacobs more than he would have gotten via purse bid to make this fight happen.

    Can we get an amen?

    :ole::ole::ole:

    Golovkin's team has always had to cough up the bucks to get feet in the ring.

    That of course is not correct. The WBC had a deadline for the fight to happen. GGG said he is happy with the purse split terms of the WBC, he is mandatory challenger. GGG said and I am quoting "I am happy the fight finally happens, let's do this". Canelo's team said they are not going to fight their mandatory and preferred to drop the belt.

    Clearly the evidence points towards Canelo AVOIDING Golovkin. The mandatory fight was lined up, easy, simple terms, simple purse split, no rematch clause. It was all ready to go. Just Cancelo DID NOT WANT IT!

    LOL of course Ward would take that money he has no fan base, doesn't sell tickets, and is not a draw. Do you even follow Boxing? GGG is a a significant higher bargaining level than Andre Ward who can't even sell out his own living room.

    Ward would take a 50/50 spilt of that money. He offered that in an effort to get GGG to fight him. GGG still turned him down.

    There isn't that type of money available for a Ward-GGG fight so comparing the two is pointless.

    So why hasn't Golovkin called out an opponent when all real boxers call out opponents?
    James Toney called out Benn and Eubank.
    Hopkins called everyone out and made offers.
    Hagler called out opponents all the time, or when opponents like SRL called him out he immediately responded.
    Taylor called his opponents out and made offers.
    Pacquaio called out his opponents and so did Mayweather.

    Why in 8 years has Golovkin never called out an opponent or made an offer?
    Everytime Golovkin fights it's because some b-level called him out or he was facing a mandatory. What kind of champion is that?

    The sad part is when opponents call Golovkin out, he rarely even bothers to answer the phone.
    Lara, Ward and Hopkins called Golovkin out and Golovkin didn't have anything to say. Never even bothered to respond himself, but Instead he let K2 make some weak excuse for him. No wonder he has no US fan base. He doesn't act like a fighter.
