This content is protected IBF/IBO/WBA middleweight champion Gennady GGG Golovkin says he felt bad for welterweight Amir Khan last Saturday night in his 6th round knockout loss to the much bigger WBC middleweight champion Saul Canelo Alvarez. Golovkin said it was a bad fight for boxing because of how much bigger Canelo was. Its not a surprise. Everybody who is a true fan understands, Golovkin said to Power 106 Los Angeles. Canelo is huge, hes big, hes too strong for Khan. Khan is a good boxer, but its a difficult division for him. It was very scary. After the fight, I felt terrible for Khan. It was a great performance, but not for him.
Of course he is. And his fans are just as bad as he is. Fought no one of note at 34 and with 34 fights and calls up a guy most people forgot about in Brook to fight him at MW. Pathetic!
Between contradicting himself and fighting Brook and possibly forging a fake contract I don't know what's worse. GGG could very well be the biggest crook in modern day boxing.
Nobody will face GGG except for Brook. I'd rather see GGG vs Brook rather than GGG Vs some random mandatory fight he's had to take over the past 5 years. Brook is elite at 147lbs his future is in the 154lbs division I think if Brook wanted to fight GGG long-term he should have moved weight and had some tune-up fights like Ward is doing to prepare for Kovalev. Just jumping into the deep end will be Brook's downfall in this fight. If Brooks' power dosen't come up with him to 160lbs its not going to last long because if his shots don't hurt GGG, GGG will go for the kill and it won't last 6 rds.
GGG said he will fight anybody who wants to fight him, Brook is one of the few that do. Canelo fought Khan when he could of fought GGG. GGG fights Brook when he could of fought WHO?
This is a career high payday for both fighters, I think GGG deserves a payday after ALL of his competitors in his weight class ducked him. Froch even ducked him, don't you haters remember all this?
If GGG vs Kovelev was announced today instead of GGG vs Brook, would you be "hating" on Kovelev for taking the fight? I don't think you would be, not many people who know boxing would be.
A light HW? :think What's more funny is, posters actually thought Lara was serious about facing 3G. :rofl
