    The guy doesn't understand the lineal title can be worth as much as a Micky mouse belt at times. If he doesn't want to admit it, it's his own mental gymnastics for him to worry about hahaha.

    G should forget 168, unify 160 and then rule it with an iron fist for the next 3 years. Red is in the entertainment business, that's where he belongs,

    I find it interesting that you determine the worth or meaning of a Lineal Title based on the circumstances of how the Lineal Title was won, yet you don't seem to have any problem with the circumstances of how a physical belt was won. The value of the Lineal Title really has more to do with the Length of the Lineage and Quality of the Fighters that were part of that lineage.

    Golovkin has has **** poor management all of his career. This folks, is NO difference.

    Even though GGG would be the favorite against BJS, WHY risk your biggest fight EVER!, your ONLY mega payday AND ONLY LEGACY defining fight by risking injury 3 months before.

    Has K2 and GGG considered accidental headbutt cut, possible bone fracture, teraing something etc.. 3 months would not be enough to both heal and then train for a fight in Sept.

    Once again these GGGuys making terrible decisions for GGG.

    Gomez needs to lay off tequila, it's OK to say they don't want GGG to get a cut or injury but saying it's not enough time to promote the fight is shockmaster type of ******ed.
    It's been marinating for 2 years and will sell out in hours.

    That's not what Gomez is saying though, he made a worthless excuse about promotional time.

    I can see your argument that it might be better for GGG not to fight Saunders in June.

    But that doesn't change the fact that Gomez is speaking nonsense and putting an obstacle in the way of Canelo-GGG where there did not have to be one. What he's saying is that: even if GGG is ready to go for September with no injuries, if he's fought Saunders in June we are pulling out for no good reason.

    If Gomez had merely advised GGG not to fight in June due to possible injury that would've have been defensible.

    But you and shadow keep making this about injuries even though Gomez said nothing of that sort.

    Agreed, although to be fair, The Shockmaster hasn't been trolling lately.

    K2 and GGG would be crazy to pass on BJS to wait for GBP to lowball them and then throw a ton of money at BJS.

    That's my prediction, they are trying to sneak in and grab the one belt Golovkin doesn't have so they can get some semblance of actual leverage.

    If K2 doesn't sign BJS before the Canelo/JCCJ fight, GBP will overpay to get that fight and the belt.

    If it's at all possible, K2 needs to get BJS in June.

    I'm thinking that Golovkin absolutely needs to get Saunders in the ring before Canelo. He needs to shut all the doors at 160 and he needs to make sure that the only way Canelo is relevant at MW is through him. Saul can't hide at 154 forever and the 168 guys will be too big. 160 is where he should be, and if GGG holds all the belts then he can force Canelo to fight him.

    Unless, of course, Oscar commissions a new lineal belt and tries to flog it as being worth more than a peso with a hole in it.
