    It's a little lightweight wimp whining and using the race card to mask mediocrity. Everyone on the site has posted numerous times about the weakness of the division as well as the b level quality of Quillin, Jacobs and Lee.
    You pink panty girls are just mad because Golovkin is in the ranks of the MW mediocre.

    When Keith Holmes, William Joppy and Hacine Cherifi are belt holders in your era.

    When Robert Allen, Antwun Echols and Morade Hakker are title challengers.

    You have no platform to criticise this era.

    Wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility. Afterall Canelo and Oscar said he's not a MW yet. If this happens GGG will be screwed big time no good options at 160 2016 was a waste of a year and he'll be 35 next year.

    The MW division is my favorite division and it's sad to see it in such a lowly impoverished state.
    Hopefully some of those talented Junior MWs will hurray and move up to 160 later this year to recharge the division, so 2017 can start off well.

    Which hall of fame midleweight did Hopkins beat during his middleweight reign ?

    Glen Johnson ?

    He basically feasted on smaller welters moving up: Trinidad, John David Jackson, Hoya, Daniels, Simon Brown.

    The true middleweights he faced either beat him ( Taylor, Jones) or were rather ordinary ( Vanderpool, Lipsey, Mercado, Allen, Echols, Holmes, Joppy, Eastman)

    There were mouth watering clashes awaiting for him at super middleweight: Toney, Montell Griffin, Mc Callum, Reggie Johnson, Michael Nunn, Steve Collins.

    Did he move up then ?

    Fact is he only moved up after Taylor threw him out of the middleweight division; not before. :deal

    Borenard was happy to beat on small welters and average fighters for as long as he was allowed .

    LMFAO at the haters trying to rip down the most dominant champion in current boxing. GGG could be 100-0 and they'd still be b itching like a troop of girl scouts that sat on a wet bench :D

    If Canelo vacates 160 belt, nobody will have a reason to criticize Canelo & GGG should focus on unifying the division

    GGG win over Canelo is as big as GGG defeating Monroe, meaning another title defense. Canelo is a blown up 140 guy with limited skills & short stature even for 140

    Canelo is a MW, easily. He's just fantastic at draining himself down to lighter weights. That's his secret superpower ;)

    Trinidad blew a hole through MW Joppy in just 5 rounds.
    JDJ beat WBA MW champ Reggie Johnson. Johnson beat prime Steve Collins.

    GGG wants to feast on small welters who have ZERO fights and wins at MW. Canelo couldn't blow a hole through 154 pounders , yet you Glovturds think monster Gennady beating this bum will elevate him to greatness:rofl:nut

    Lipsey was more feared than anybody on Bumlovkins record. A respected puncher - Hopkins ran through him like he was nothing.

    GGG faces a middle of the road puncher - Lemieux - and he throws away his 'mexican style' to box safely behind a jab.

    Toney and Griffen were at LHW. Reggie Johnson was beaten by John David Jackson .

    Which ended up a good thing . The move up boosted his record and standing as a ATG significantly. bREAKING RECORDS AS One of the oldest men to ever win a title.

    But you try pass off this off as a negative ? :huh

    You can throw in the schooling of Glovkin 2.0 - Pavlik in there for good measure while your at it.

    Stevens, Murray, Rubio. Ishida too, went up in weight.

    and:

    Offers were on the table to Froch, Chavez. Ward was discussed at one time. The above either were suddenly too busy, too retired, or thought that the fight should mature.

    Try again, Dino.

    :hi:
