    Yeah, because I'm sure you shut-in little g fans are the toughest guys out there :lol:.

    So why didnt little g fight Brook at 154-156? Are you telling me that Brook would not accept this fight at 154-156 :lol:, or that it wouldnt make a big difference.

    They were already planning at fighting at the full 160, Brook probably agreed and nobody had to yield to anything. Hopefully BJS fights Golovkin after this.

    :lol::lol: Just like Dawson agreed to fight Ward at 168, and was the one who called Ward out. But Ward still gets crucified for that fight, and gets absolutely no credit. You can't pick and choose when something is acceptable. What Golovkin is doing is an absolutely cowardly move, b-b-ut but but his circumstances isn't a good enough excuse.

    Like I said it was probably a last minute thing, they had to find an opponent who also happened to be British and would fight at the full 160, Brook agreed. I am sure if Brook had allot of star power he could have negotiated with Golovkin to fight at 156, but Brook yielded to Golovkin's demand without difficulty.

    Yep, that's exactly what happened. GGG does not want fights that are challenging. His whole career is a joke.

    What the **** has this got to do with it. Nothing about this illustrates anything relevant at all.

    People at his own weight class want nothing to do with him, you need to see things for what they are.

    160 is the weakest division in boxing. What do boxers who dare to be great do? Call everyone out from 154-175, and then move up to 168 since they've pretty much done everything at 160. Or bring up a WW 2 weight classes :think.

    Golovkin wants to unify first, that is his dream, and that will be what he does before he moves up.

    You don't recognise what a dictionary definition looks like :lol: Can't say I'm surprised.

    "b-b-ut but but his circumstances isn't a good enough excuse." is ****ogous with "you can prove anything with facts".

    That's analogous by the way. I would say look it up but you'd just stare blankly at the characters and wonder what they might mean.

    So offer Saunders a decent amount of money. GGG's team did not offer Saunders 4m or whatever they claimed they offered, according to saunders, and I believe him. GGG's team can easily disprove him for lying, which they haven't done. Climb the rankings of the WBO, if he has to fight eliminators against lower level opposition it's understandable since he would be staying "consistent". But GGG is not consistent. He takes step-aside money for Canelo/Cotto, he brings up a WW 2 weight classes, he isn't doing anything to become the WBO mando to force himself in a position to become undisputed.

    Opportunities will come, hopefully he fights BJS next.
