    And as we all know, A-side is determined based entirely on resumes and fights, and not almost exclusively on a fighter's drawing power.:risas3:

    I’ve seen people say this to defend Ward when he said that, “he was just joking.” The lengths people go to in order to defend these guys they will never meet is just weird.

    You care what the media thinks when they give out fighter of the year or fighter of the decade awards or Espys.

    Wow. Excellent Middleweight title fight. Murata's body work had Golovkin grimacing at times. But Golovkin's heavy punches to the head finally broke him.

    That was a pleasure to watch.

    Andre never called out Floyd but we know Lil G did. He even offered to come down in weight.

    I doubt it. I would still like to see it, maybe it could still happen.

    B-Hop was roundly criticised for it.

    Post where I said he called him out. Then post the link where Golovkin called out Floyd.

    The last stand by Murata in the ninth even surprised Golovkin.

    Both guys shined.

    Andre made all fighters bend to his Will inside and outside the ring.

    Sounds like you are upset that we call Golovkin Lil G. It can be worse we could call him Lil g.

    Clearly not all fighters, or he would have gotten that "Totally Super Serious Offer No Really Guys" fight with GGG at 164/8/whatever (locking him out of his money fights with Lemuix and Canelo) instead of a 172 fight with Paul Smith.
