Ok GRJ is a good fight. If he blows through GRJ then he needs to try everything to jump in the ring with Loma in 2020. No excuses!
GRJ has fought Loma, Diaz, Gonzalez & Oscar Escandon (who incidentally beat Cuellar years before Davis did.. & also beat robinson castellanos who whooped Gamboa around like a 14 year old petrol pump attendant..) Davis fought an inactive Pedraza & a load of bantamweights! GRJ>Davis.
Yeah... ALL after the age of 26. I'm not arguing who has better wins...just saying GRJ is a damn hypocrite.
I’ll be rooting for Farmer met him in miami he’s a really nice guy , I just don’t think he stands a chance.
You mean like your God GGG who finally fought a fighter of note when he fought Canelo in his mid 30s? LMFAO! PBF was fighting and beating guys of note at 20 years old.
One fight a year? Tank has fought twice this year and will fight once more before the year is out. First canidate is Farmer, and Gamboa is second option.
Golovkin was disgracefully ducked by the likes of Sturm and Quillin for years something you pretend never happened. Martinez was busy laboring with Macklin and getting gifts against Murray, he attempted to cherry pick Cotto and we all know what happened there. Cotto sat on the belt like an egg and had a mediocre defense or two before cashing out against Canelo - he wanted ZERO to do with Golovkin. Golovkin didn't avoid fighting the best - THEY avoided him.
He didn't duck anybody at his weight class. Something you and others on here claimed for YEARS. He never ducked Ward because he never campaigned at 168. Ward called him out because he was desperate to stay in the airwaves after signing a dumb deal with Roc nation and his career stalling as a result. Let me get it out of the way before you say it " buh- buh- - buh- Golovkin fans on ESB said he'd beat Ward" since the fight never happened he ducked him!
Martinez was old and was looking to cash out Cotto wasn't a real MW. GGG stayed in a weak division and took step aside money. If he found himself being ducked by Strum and Quillen who are no world beaters then move up like most fighters do. He has no one to blame but himself.
There was never a reason for Golovkin to move up because he was still chasing the big fights that eluded him at the weight he campaigned at. Of course it's his fault.. You dont like him so it's all his fault but had it been one of your boyfriend's it would be a different story. It's mind boggling that someone who has been into the sport for so long can ignore the fact that a great fighter was a CLEAR victim of boxing politics for a good chunk of his career. Actually it's not.. You have always had a clear agenda and have no issue with overlooking boxing politics just so long as they aren't impacting one of your man crushes negatively.
It's not his fault he was being ducked. It's his fault that he chose to stay in a bad division if he was being ducked and taking step aside money wasting his prime years. He could have moved up many fighters do. The division is much better now though.
