    He should be throwback fighter and live up to the hype he's been given.

    You guys overhyped GGG way too much.

    He took money instead of fighting for the WBC title, not once, but twice.
    He fought Jacobs, a near disaster, and hasn't granted him a rematch to date.
    He ignores Lara, Trout, and Andrade.
    He demands a catchweight for Ward.
    He did not fight BJ Saunders because ODLH bossed him with money.
    He chooses to fight low caliber opponents like O'Sullivan because he's waiting for a big pay day.

    His GGGoons have 100 excuses why he doesnt fight top level opposition.

    I really don't have a problem with GGG, I think he'd fight anybody in a parking lot, but his handlers are protecting him, that's just obvious... Muniga??? O'Sullivan??? MArtirosyan??? Come on. This is the guy some people here are saying is the greatest middlewieght EVER!

    His people are hesitating over a mandatory with 12 fights in 4 years!

    It's obvious they know he is washed-up and the goal is to get him to the big money fight where he has a chance against a guy who hasn't fought in a year. Abel Sanchez watches him in sparring and training, he knows he's done. He has gone from "Anybody from 154-168" to ducking a guy with 12 fights.

    Even this old Golovkin has a 80 percent chance of beating the other middleweights, I dont know exactly what his handlers are doing, they are probably looking for somebody that doesn’t warrant much of a price so they can profit from it.

    Canelo was obliged to fight him.
    At middle, Canelo is fresh meat for Jacobs, Lemieux, Saunders, etc...

    Once beaten/ko'd, he would not have been able to take the lion's share vs GGG.
    That's why GGG went backwards to Canelo's demand for no bodyshots & was allowed to survive to the final bell.

    Both Canelo and GGG sold out boxing.

    Golovkin should fight Charlo right now, knock him out cold!!! Charlo fights a cripple and they make him the best middleweight in the world today?! LOL! Charlo fights a cripple! Who did Jacobs pick? Why didn't Charlo and Jacobs fight? Saunders will not fight Golovkin, claims he has an injury, but has been running for years. Wilder fights winos from the alley and the org's do not complain...............

    It seems like Golovkin's May 5 date is simply going to be cancelled.

    Lol.. You're still claiming DL beats Canelo? I thought you GGGoons abandoned that idea when BJ exposed him.

    And you are here baiting people, what did any of that long post have to do with this topic of the IBF/WBA/WBC outside of the last part?

    For what it's worth, I believe GGG/his team are putting himself/him in a bad spot looking for all these alternatives when SD is waiting, ready and his mandatory.

    Canelo will stand right in front of Lemieux.
    He can't run around the ring like a headless chicken the way Saunders did.

    Yeah, but he has the nous to avoid and counter Lemmy all day long. I kinda gave Lemmy a shot until Canelo showed his whiskers. Jacobs and Saunders are the other dudes who can give him fits. I think he'd beat Charlo and I can't be convinced on Sergi D at the highest level yet
