    Apparently Sanczhez has some concerns in regards to Golovkin's upcoming fight with Stevens. Apparently he's concerned that Stevens will get knocked out too quickly. Here's what he had to say;

    "It's hard when guys don't fight back. I'd like Stevens to give us rounds, we'll need that when we get to top guys like Andre Ward, and Carl Froch and Sergio Martinez if he ever comes up. We need to practice, these guys keep falling down, so it's difficult to practice that."


    So there you have it, Sanchez is totally dismissive of Stevens and sees him as no more than practice. Sadly for Stevens, I think he's right.

    Curious to see if Stevens will act like a P.O.S during the fight build up/pressers.

    Abel Sanchez also said that Golovkin would have an easier time with Macklin than he did Proksa, He was spot on with that prediction.

    I like Stevens, he´s fun to watch, but he´s just not on worldclass level. He has to pull off a very big one to win this.

    Abel is just talking sh*t. If GGG is so bad, why fight Stevens at all? Step up mother f*cker and stop wasting our time.

    GGG is 2 years older than Ward and has had more fights. Time to step the f*ck up or shut the f*ck up.

    Somebody had GG's first round knockdown by an Argentine nobody taken off youtube and the fight removed from his record.

    Step up to whom? Anybody with anything to lose at middle has been running from him, only bums like Stevens, Mora, Vera have any interest

    Who has GGG been calling out? Who have his promoters been calling out? If you want the fights that bad, go f*ckin get them. Travel, take a pay cut, move weights, whatever. He's acting like he's Andre Ward just cos HBO have a hard-on for him.

    Golovkin hasn't earned a super fight when you look at his resume. He's beat guys he should beat and looked damn good doing it but he hasn't taken any big risks and come out on top like the other 3 fighters Abel mentioned.

    If you genuinely can't make a single fight with someone better than Curtis Stevens, don't f*ckin complain that he's not worthy and talk about him like he's a sparring partner giving you rounds. Beat the sh*t out of him and move on fast. Your man is 31 years old and only just making a name for himself.

    Look it up, they offered fights to everybody at middle. He offered to fight Murray in the UK, Sturm in Germany, Geale in Australia etc. And he is taking a paycut, he just made 350k to Macklin's 300k. When do you ever see a split like this?
