    yes he's full of **** when he says he can come down to 152. 154 is a much better division than 160. If he could make the damn weight, he would have. He's never been that low his whole career and wasn't even that low in the Olympics.


    And he brings up Floyd all the damn time about fighting him. I'll give him a pass since interviewers are asking him about it directly.

    and Floyd's fans get upset because you get jackasses on here talking about how Floyd is scared of a Middleweight and how's he's a *****. :roll:

    If they fought at 152, Floyd would barely get any credit for it anyways, yet people are still talking crap

    That's what happens when when the champ purchases the super belt to avid the mando, the belt vacates. And when better contenders like NDam and Mundine pass on fighting him for the vacant belt, you go down the rankings. And when the next guy beats Super champ Sturm, then drops the belt to avoid the mando. That's 3 genuine top tenners refusing to get in the ring with him, just from the WBA ranks. Oh an interim WBA champ Murray just passed on an offer from GGG, not for the first time. So who the fcuk do you want him to fight to legitimize his paper belt?

    He said that, at the moment, all he wants is to unify the belts at 160. Where is the issue?

    When DiBella himself says he won't have Sergio fight him in his return fight, when Hearn talks about Golovkin like it would be the end for Barker, I think you realize getting the other champs in the ring with him will not be easy. Nor will it be cheap, and Golovkin isn't exactly Floyd, Cotto or Chavez Jr.

    So Stevens is also full of sh!t. That's ok.

    +1. Late 2014 or sometime in 2015, though. It'll be at around 170 IMO, when Ward will have taken over LHW and when Golovkin will have made a decent name for himself by securing the lineage at MW. Might even be a PPV if the card is stacked!

    I guess you're talking about calves..? Proportionally to their bodies, Golovkin and Quillin's quads are about the same. When have you seen Golovkin bend at the knee after a shot? What about tiring out completely in the late rounds, lack of movement and all? I just find it's odd to point it out since we haven't seen Golovkin go through the visible negative effects of having smaller legs.

    Macklin just made 300k vs GGG. Does he have better options? Not even close, last september he passed on GGG offer to fight Alcine for 80k. Curtis bum Stevens passed on 300k, and haggled till he got more. He makes 10x less normally. GGG just made 350k, and these B siders want more? GTFO
