    You're mad or dksab. GGG has practically no chance against Beterbiev. GGG ain't no spring chicken and he hasn't fought above 160.

    You are right though, because if he beat Beterbiev that would be one of the greatest wins of all time.

    & spending the majority of your time
    Combing boxing boards to ensure you don’t miss a money nick name like
    “Pac-turd”
    Will actually ensure that you do have a low IQ
    as well as missing life entirely.:sisi1

    Golovkin never once fought a fighter that people said he wouldn't, never fought in another weight class, wouldn't even go down 5lbs to fight a huge money fight with Canelo (even though I hate catchweights).

    This phoney was never, ever about being great like he claimed. If he was he would have already fought ANY ONE of Ward, Kovalev, Beterbiev, Bivol... etc. He is a good fighter, but phoney as hell.

    3G never hid his intentions of unifying 160. Are you old enough to remember when being undisputed was a good thing?? That's what 3G was trying to do.

    Being great isn't moving up. For the simple reason most guys move up due to not being able to make weight. Anyone can move up to chase a money fight.

    And why the heck should he have gone down 5 pound for canelo?? MW is limit of 160 FFS. If you hate catchweights you should f'n applaud that.

    Threw his Career away, it's crazy to me with how he became so obsolete from not just the fans but also the Boxers, it's like everyone completely forgot him entirely at one point the guy was everywhere & in your face at all times.

    Perhaps the ENTIRE POINT OF THIS THREAD missed you?? It's about Golovkin fighting a guy who is a light heavyweight. He was never willing to risk anything before and fight outside someone at a different weight so why would he now?
