    Manfredo at one point was a respectable opponent

    Manfredo has zero chance, Golovkin will knock him out cold, it would be a total mismatch....................Golovkin is Cotto's mandatory, yet Cotto is refused to fight him, and is paying Golovkin step aside money so he can fight Alvarez................nobody will fight Golovkin..............Lee said he would, then backed out, Quillin will not come near Golovkin, not will any other 160 lb. fighter...................so it is best for Golovkin to wait until his mandatory, but the WBC has alread broken a promise once........................the winner of Cotto/Alvarez will run like hell from Golovkin..............

    Right now it's all talk.:bart

    Either way, Manfredo would be a pointless fight for GGG.

    Golovkin has a mandatory fight coming up for the WBC title with the winner of Cotto/Alvarez..................he should not give that up. Cotto refused to fight him even though Golovkin was Cotto's mandatory, the WBC had promised him that fight, by Cotto paying Golovkin step aside money tells me something.....................

    As many as it needs until one of the so called "contenders" will grow bals to step in the ring with GGG.

    Looks like the MW division is full of contenders similar to Tyson Fury. :deal

    I understand why. Everyone else is busy or ignoring him (everyone in his division, anyway). I have to give my man GGG a pass on this one.

    After he beats this guy, and Canelo/Cotto is done, I hope everyone stops ducking and fight GGG. Prove you are the best. Beat the guy with 3 belts.

    Lara still wants a piece of this guy. Yet GGG's camp says there is no money in it. I guess Manfredo brings in the cheese.
