    Hmm....

    Seems like he doesn’t have that fire inside anymore. Few years ago he spent 10 month a year in Big Bear away from everything, looks like he doesn’t want to sacrifice a lot anymore.

    And Eddie Hearn said today that this 6 fight deal is not sure, maybe he is going to do only 2 or 3 fights.

    It’s obvious now that Golovkin is cashing out and money is the only motivation. As a fighter he did everything what he could from 2004-2018, he was unlucky in every way.

    He just turned 37.

    He could have went for a legacy boosting fight during his last years but he has no interest.

    Kursher is pushing the same age and he's out there gunning for Beterbiev. I saw him calling him out the other day. GG wont call anybody out for fear they will accept. .lol!

    he did well, but he knows he will never own the division again. i would like to see a canelo rematch, or dirrel at 168. if he loses either one, go and enjoy the fruits of all your hard work. when its all said and done, in his pomp, he was a very worthy champion of a great division in history.

    losing a decision is not legit? I guess we can make our own rules, but in that case Hearns would have beaten Ray in 1989, an that did not happen.

    I've told people for a while that Golovkin's heart is not in it anymore, the main reason for signing with DAZN is to further his promotional efforts

    That’s true, and also he became famous, national hero, good looking guy with nice family, rich, etc. but at the end of the day every people have the same emotions inside and probably it was a big hit from life that he got robbed 2x in a row

    By now probably he has zero respect toward boxing that’s why he is acting like that. Bob Arum said he was difficult, he was negotiating with Haymon, the DAZN deal took ages, Sanchez got fired, Loeffler was questionable, he started to sue his old managers,no more English interviews, etc. etc.

    The man is fed up

    Doesn't Mcgirt train out of LA? Probably the best trainer for G right now.

    They made up their own rules when they stole GGG's titles. Vegas is Corruption City

    I called it after the Canelo fight, GGG would not be the same after the pounding he got.
