    I know but it's still good to see him being able to sell this many tickets.

    If he retired today, his best wins and only wins over top 10 ranked opponents are:

    Matthew Macklin (RING #4)
    Grzegorz Proksa (RING #10)
    Curtis Stevens (RING #10)

    If everyone retired today, I could name at least 50 careers among active boxers that are far better and some of them are younger than Golovkin.

    People like you make people dislike Golovkin. Like Bute, Broner, and Khan fans, the bunch of you are.

    Thank you.

    Lol a modern great, WTF. Meanwhile Floyd is a coward, Manny is a woos, Marquez is a cheat. What is wrong with "boxing fans"?

    Plus, all of these sentiments thrown around:

    "Hopkins is a protected scared overrated American fraud"
    "Wladimir isn't a top 50 HW and would lose to Cleveland Williams and Zora Folley"
    "Donaire is a punk who sucks and never beat a quality fighter"
    "Akira Yaegashi is irrelevant due to the irrelevant division he competes"
    "Ward should have fifteen DQ losses and 1 TKO loss too"
    "Cotto is a coward for fighting the Middleweight champion, should be NC"
    "I don't know who Wonjongkam or Calderon are"
    "Garcia should have lost one fight; all previous accomplishments are erased"

    LOL exactly!

    They put down fighters who have been around for a decade. One or two power punchers get a couple of TKO's and that's it, they are legends, with mythical power, and can win every fantasy fight. Forget the work the other fighters have put in.

    Why would you dislike a fighter on the basis of his fans ******?

    That to me makes no sense.
