    3G is just using the time he has left for the big money fights, hes 36, no spring chicken.

    Watch and see, he will face an elite next. He is no cowardzaghe who wins a major belt and then immediately runs away from it.

    I think GGG might just sack MW off now & go for a belt at 168..

    IBF was caught on video taking a bribe years ago, no joke! Anyone remember that? Golovkin should have fought Charlo's cripple, then he would have been praised! Golovkin is the best, if not the hen El Pollo, then he should fight mandatories, one after the other..............

    lol and at the same time The ring magazine awarded him a belt (just saw on GGG's instagram profile). This is getting so confusing.
    Of course Golovkin won't sign to fight SD, when they were still negotiating the Canelo fight and when that fell through, he got stripped the same or the next day. I think they (GBP & IBF) intentionally cornered him. However, IBF corrupt or not, I believe you should defend when ordered, so they went by the book, which is fair. But the bigger picture implies there might be something dirty going on ...

    Choosing Vanes over SD was an awful move to make.

    If he isn't fighting SD next it needs to be a good name otherwise this looks really bad.

    I'm thinking Saunders, Murata or Canelo otherwise I can't see it being acceptable

    Didn’t WBC say they’ll strip Golovkin if he doesn’t fight Charlo if Canelo rematch doesn’t happen?

    Damn, Golovkin shouldn’t have fought Vanes, but this really is ridiculous

    the only belt 3G needs to worry about is the one holding up his trousers.

    Mandatories only accept unifications over their own priority.

    A **** fight like Vanes deserves the backlash it gets

    That’s what he gets ducking his mandos to fight 154lber who hasn’t fount in 2 years. What a champ GGG is

    You really have to hit every branch falling down from the idiot tree to see it that way.
    Fighting Vanes wasn’t smart but that was far from a duck.

    The more this crap with Canelo goes on, the more I wonder what Golovkin could’ve done if his promoter wasn’t so thick.

    GGG cant expect to hold that belt hostage while he waits on GB/Canelo like a little puppy dog, and fights inactive light middleweights in the interim. **** or get off the pot.

    You’re stupid had he fought a top 10 in the 160lb weight class ranked by IBF he would still have his belt. Simple fact is he picked a 154lber with a two year layoff!!!! He completely ducked any real challenge. As soon as he mandos can fight back he conviently doesn’t care about belts lol. I hope the WBC strips him as well and Canelo doesn’t give him higher than 35%. He no longer has 4 belts so what does he really bring to the table now?!? :risas3: It ain’t the fans cause has much as some of you swear he’s man. Why does he do **** numbers on ppv. No one wants to watch his bum fest anymore, not that really did anyways clearly if we go by his ppv buys haha

    He could have fought him instead of Vanes...it's as simple as that. He could have been negotiating with him instead of making stupid 50/50 demands to Canelo, but he didn't.

    Let’s not blame Clenelo for ruining everything.

    This starts with him.

    If I’m GGG, I chase BJS and Murata. Top 5-10 guys and bring in large crowds in their countries and the pay days will be solid.

    Yea, Lou DiBella would've never taken step aside money IMO, so even if Canelo & GGG agreed to fight last week, this was meant to happen.
