    Nonsense, he's already fought two other top five (at the time) middles in Lemieux and Jacobs and possibly three if you count Murray. Haven't been any other proven middleweights clamouring for the fight.

    Nope...different standard for 3G with these hypocrites. Just take a look at how many repeat the "Anyone from 154 to 168" crap they said, but completely ignore Ward's "I'll be a HW before I retire" line. Hell, one poster even said Ward was just JOKING about that... unbelievable...

    GGG should face Kirkland, Liam Smith or Khan in June.
    Good tune ups.

    Its different man they at least fought others that were dangerous like canelo fought lara , trout GGG cotto yea canelo has cherry picked but he wasnt after one fighter all the time . ward fought kovalev,froch , kessler, dawson . Cotto fought mosley,margarito ,pac , floyd, canelo . see the difference they at least fought other fighter that the public saw was a top fighter at least . GGG only fought Jacobs ,Canelo twice us fans want to see fighters fight different styles against different stories. At the end it will be canelo who will fight charlo ,andrade ........at the end it will be canelo who fights against hurd who moves up after 160. With Canelo we wont be seeing the same story of one fighter chasing just the same fighter

    Its moving the goal posts
    Dawson was weight drained BAD for that, very stupid move that deal for Dawson !
    Its not GGG's fault though, they were lucky they had each other in and around the same weight, its only Ward that people can say GGG didn't fight, but that was timing, not happening.Theres no one GGG could've fought that he didn't, unless you would've liked to see Sturm or Abraham, but they ran from him when he was knocking at the door

    that is the thing though whether those fighters were drained or whatever you call it it does not matter who won or what the point is they still fought. win lose or draw we got the fights we wanted we got the fights that were exciting to us. De la hoya fought hopkins when he had no business being there got knocked out paul williams moved up and down over and over roy jones fought calzaghe when he was 39 years old george foreman came back and fought holyfield a dangerous heavyweight. hopkins fought kovalev at 49 years old. thing is these fighters took risks whether they won or lost whether they were new to the weight class or not/ Whether they were past their prime or not they still took risks and thats what it is to be great. i dont reward ggg for being avoided at this age he still at the top level and us fans want to see him take risks unless he just wants to retire and be known with a shitty resume and made millions then be my guest GGG go for it. But at the end we are gonna have to depend on canelo to fight everyone everyone will push canelo to fight the up and coming middleweights Canelo is in deep waters Jacobs ,Andrade , Charlo and hurd who is just coming up and will be at 160 soon all of them are 6 foot and up at the end we will push canelo to fight these young guys that are dangerous because he wants to fight the best and he will do it that is what it is to be great ......to take the risks

    No , thats hogwash.

    Ward fought Smith on the way up to LHW to take on a guy most said would take years off his life. Nobody would mind if GGG had a similar type tune-up if he agreed to move up and fight Callum Smith.

    Andrande is average to good , not a massive threat to anybody , so GGG trying to bypass him shows you what sort of level he's only prepared to fight.
    Its not a big ask to expect him to fight Andrande for a belt. The man simply doesn't have the stones to fight anybody half decent and don't say Canelo because anybody would fight Canelo given the opportunity.

    Its Canelo who is consistently taking on hard challenging fights , not GGG.. The Golovkin fights were more risky and challenging for Canelo than they were for Golovkin.

    Canelo had to face GGG twice while undersized and underpowerd , now he faces another risky fight against Jacobs before having to go through it all over again with GGG a third time.
    Its a sad sight seeing this big bully boy trying to weasel out of a fight with Andrande while he clings to Canelo for another fight in which he'll peck away behind his jab and run away like a little pansy. :shocked::stick:

    There are still plenty of fighters he could fight now, never mind all the blokes he dodged in his prime.

    He once said anyone from 154-175 ffs, you realize how many talented fighters he called out talking that trash???

    How many did the **** fight?

    Unless he moves up to 168 I don't want to see him fight. He is a walking corpse at 160 ffs, even Booboo will light his ass up now
