    a 3rd fight maybe?

    but whatever Golovkin does, or whoever he fights, there will always be people calling it a duck.
    If he fights Saunders he ducked Derev, Murata, Andrade, Charlo and a Clen rubber match or should have moved up to 168. If he fights Charlo... well, you can fill in the blanks.

    when you are pushing 37 you arent ducking anyone, merely looking to finish your career.

    Of course, and if he stays at MW then he never 'dared to be great' by moving up.

    There are still people saying he ducked Lara. There will never be an end to the critics complaints.

    Its a duck! Why will he goes up when the division is at its best moment in years! 168 sucks right now, so yes is a duck! If he goes straight to LH like Hopkins did, then i have no complaints

    If there was a P4P worthy guy at 168, then it would be a good move. 160 has a lot of contenders but most are relatively unproven.
    But 168 has little to offer and 160 is the division to stay at.

    One of the most natural Middleweights we have seen for some time...walks around comfortably at 166....Fight Canelo and Saunders and then retire.!!
