Golovkin 2 out of his last 3 opponents are: Vanes & Brandon Adams, Is that ok for a P4P boxer?

    No, not when you take into account the fact that he fought Canelo in-between those two

    His career is winding down now, he can fight whoever he likes at this stage as far as i'm concerned, nothing left to prove...

    exactly he proved he is solid world title class with win over jacobs.

    to add to that lets not forget that a draw with canelo is actually a valid elite level title defence. A lot of people forget that. Though in mitigation it was an elite from lower division.

    Wtf have I lied about?
    I have agreed with you on everything. We posted the same quotes about why GGG got stripped.

    What I am saying is that GGG chose not to risk it vs Sergiy, because he was still after Alvarez. But you seem to think Alvarez was completely off the table(which he clearly was not).
    GGG chose not to risk it vs one top fighter over another(the biggest fight of his life)

    You can call it a duck all you want(as it technically is), but it means jack all.
    It's like giving **** to Floyd for ducking" Manny to fight Mosley.
    Or Bradley "ducking" Khan to fight Manny.

    Kell Brook was in negotiations to fight Jessie Vargas in a unification, but he walked away and fought Golovkin. Is that a duck? If so then what does it matter?

    lol, are you actually being serious right now? Brook walked from Vargas to take on an a huge risk and challenge. He went from a winnable fight to a non-winnable fight , so wtf did he duck exactly, a win?? :nut:

    GGG walked away from Sergiy so he could take a ridiculously easy fight with junior middle who had been inactive for 2 years. See the difference? There's no way GGG would ever take on a challenge like Brook did.

    The GGGooons seem to forget the whole Drevychenko ducking thing

    When Canelo tested hot, Drevychenko his mandatory was BEGGING for the fight... He would have had a month to prepare for Drevy, he went with Vanes instead. Thats definition of a duck

    fair enough he ducked one guy, so, not really the worst crime in boxing.

    You are twisting the narrative here.
    GGG chose to stay busy with the plan being a Canelo rematch. Had he faced Sergiy, he would have taken a massive risk and could have compromised the rematch.

    Golovkin took the easy fight while waiting for Alvarez. He chose not to stay inactive.

    Around the Curtis Stevens fight, nobody wanted to fight GGG. People kept asking Loeffler "why doesn't GGG fight this guy or that guy"... no body wanted to fight him. Vanes was one of a couple of people that said he'd fight GGG when GGG was still coming up, so when GGG made a name for himself, it seemed fitting that Vanes got the fight and not someone else.
