    Well, as someone pointed out - if the WBC was all about honor, then they wouldn't just allow Canelo to be able to win the title. But they will because they want his fee.

    If they were really about rules, they would have enforced their own rules previously. Didn't they initially say the winner of Cotto-Geale would have to face GGG?

    The WBC and Cotto might both be laughing all the way to the bank, while Golovkin gets hosed on a technicality now that Cotto no longer has the WBC.

    Again, I have no idea.

    But all the same...

    There legally valid but they don't hold up to well if nothing was signed Golovkin is not gonna get paid, even if he does it won't be for a very long time lawyers are very good at delaying and dragging things out. I don't like it but that's how it usually is.

    Cotto needs to pay what he owes. He's starting to look like a scumbag.

    I think Rumsfeld is right, GGG got played. Boxing is truly a disgusting sport, and then people claim GGG has somehow being shown favouritism, GGG's had to deal with **** like this his entire career.

    Yeah, It's pretty obvious now that GGG won't become WBC's champion as long as there's some big cash cow outthere who can hold the title :-(

    Do you plan on "ignoring" everyone who disagrees with you?

    That's too bad. Him and his buddy QuadrupleG would only be replying to each other's threads and rest of the forum could catch a break.

    i think alot of people, myself included, have been saying that for awhile....or at least that ggg would have a difficult time getting the title........which is why im suprised and disappointed he brushed off of ward....because i could see another year or two where he gets nothing but what hes been getting

    Going after Ward seems like a better option now, yeah :lol: But like I said before, can you blame anyone for not making any future plans depending on a fight vs Ward after witnessing the last 4 years?

    I'd think that Golovkin should be awarded the title rather than the $800k.

    That's the kind of the thing though, as you say he is familiar with boxing and how everything goes down. He himself knows how to and is also playing the system, that's what you people/fans fail to understand. He knows he could be and should be out there looking for challenges but he figures scratch that why not just stay here and take what's given?

    I personally think he planned everything perfect by just being in that division, the guy is making millions left and right without being challenged, he's practically stealing..then on top of that he's expecting handouts in the form of step aside. You people need to wake up, GG knows what he's doing, why do you think you see him smiling so big all the time??
