    GGG shouldn’t step up as he’s old and chasing the money fights now. Maybe being too harsh on 168 but I think most half decent fighters in the weights below could step up and win a title there. I think Jarrett Hurd could do it easily.

    You can't use that excuse when you chose to enter a weak MW division when SMW was probably the best in the sport at the time.

    Why don´t you guys just delete these pointless threads?
    Or merge them?

    A rare moment in history indeed. But 168 was not miles ahead of 160.
    And in 2011 Golovkin was a nobody at 160.

    2012 is where Golovkin finally made it to the top of the division and the gap between 168 and 160 had pretty much closed.

    What are you 12? Or maybe you are a casual. GGG was a virtual unknown in 2010, 2011 and part of 2012. Even had he moved to SMW then, he'd have struggled to get fights because no one would have known who he was. Its pretty ****ing obvious since Canelo has taken up with Hearn and DAZN, his representative on here, has become his kneejerk henchmen on yet another fighter. Overnight you've become as bad as El CHicano in your pro-Canelo shilling. Try to be a little less obvious company man.

    'Pro-Canelo'?

    I can't stand the cheating ginger *****........
    He was outrageously gifted 2 horrific decisions in the 'Land of the free' :lol:


    I question all fighters, and do not have 'Favorites' like yourself who i flat out refuse to question.

    Spence/Usyk/Joshua are three of my favorite fighters.......

    But I question Usyk's decision to even contemplate a fight with Lebedev......
    Spence's decision to (accept the fact) fight once a millenium......
    Joshua's decision to not just kick on ahead and focus on his own career like guys like Canelo do, and leave the exposed bum in the US to carry on going nowhere.



    What I find unacceptable however, is the fact you have given me bans from this site, at least twice, without valid reason.
    A third time you even had to bring me back immediately because you were informed by multiple other members and mods that you did wrong.


    No other members on here appear to have issues with other mods.
    Whereas in almost every RBR thread you ban someone for just having an opposing opinion to yours.
    Your horrific bias towards certain fighters is only worsened by your horrific bias in the way your treat different members on this board.


    I am not a troll.
    I am not a racist/nationalist/whatever other label you want to throw at me.
    I am not attacking you personally....I am attacking your behaviour and actions which are completely unacceptable.



    Here's an example of what a truly horrific mod you're....Banning me for disagreeing with your opinion, but your insults are ok.....


    @CST80 - Why are you talking to me scumbag? **** off. How is anything you said to me relevant? I said, not one favorable card for an away fighter as in, not the A-side fighter, that would be Fonseca, and you bring up Canelo, he would be the Farmer in the equation.

    @CST80 - How cute, you finally come out raging in defense of an American fighter...…. that happens to work for Eddie Hearn. You're a deplorable vomitus shill.

    @CST80 - You're incredibly dense, aren't you? Like slow dense.

    @CST80 - Shut your mouth you weasely little *****


    Those comments weren't just directed at me.
    But to three seperate members in just three pages.


    The following is a perfect example of how disgraceful your 'modding' is.

    @CST80 towards @Boxingfan200 "Shut your mouth you weasely little *****."

    @Boxingfan200 in response to @CST80 "no you shut your mouth you piece of trash :D"

    @CST80 towards @Boxingfan200 "What a vicious petty little nasty ***** you are, to call someone a piece of trash because you politically disagree with them because they love freedom and don't like the government telling people what to do and how to think.... is the ****ing lowest of the low, you're pure vermin."




    You do this every week.

    You insult someone, then when you get stuff thrown back at you, you play the victim card and ban the member.

    @kirk @IntentionalButt @McGrain

    This sort of stuff is a disgrace and many many members on here feel the same.....
    And many others who have been banned for defending themselves against him.

    You're a heavily agenda driven DAZN shill, and a baiting troll, bye bye. Better posters have been booted for less. You won't be missed.

    Yes, really.

    Although I can understand the point he was trying to make, it was obviously a gross exaggeration.

    Over the past few years, GG has had tough fights against Canelo and Jacobs at MW. So let's not pretend that he could move up to a division he's never fought in, to then dominate guys like Smith, Groves and Ramirez without getting out of second gear.

    Absolutely and it’s certainly no given he beats any of the guys you mentioned at 168. Smith is a harder fight for him than anyone at 160, including Canelo who he just lost to.

    How many fighters in history have successfully spanned 130-168?

    Two divisions above the highest division he has ever competed at? Yeah, no. This is like the "Mayweather vs. Ward" nonsense from years ago. Got to dig deep to try to question the man. Keep digging.

    GGG hasnt moved up to 168 because he doesnt want to risk it simple as. I dont believe the crap that the division is too weak for him and he could dominate without getting out of second gear nonsense. If that was the case then why didnt he move up when Ward, Froch, and other stronger SMW's were around? Dont say that its because he was unknown back then because I remember Wards people calling out GGG and GGG's manager said something like Ward is too big or too good.
