Is Gennady Golovkin UK's most loved fighter?

I reckon Crolla could be the man if he does a job on Linares

 

The only big fights for Golovkin in the UK are against a British fighter. How many times do you think British citizens will pay to see Golovkin knock one of their own out before they get sick of it?

 

They'll claim golovkin as there own like the Mexicans have

 

Joshua is the most popular in UK, by a long long way, whereas Fury is liked and disliked in equal measure I find. Probably Crolla next, great guy, and has a huge loyal Manc following. Brit fight fans seem to like to follow their Olympic fighters but since DeGale hardly fights here he has lost some support. And although he might be fighting cans, David Haye is still hugely popular here and a fight with Fury or AJ would be a mega money fight.

GGG is huge here amongst boxing fans, but he is still not known by the everyday man in the street like Floyd or Pac for example.

People are going to this fight not to see Brook but to see GGG fight in England, the atmosphere will be off the scale. The money for GGG is here, there's big fights to be made for him over here in next few years, DeGale, Saunders, Eubank, Callum Smith, Groves etc.

 

Good post. OP had a point but forgot to mention AJ ...

 

Able is his Papi.

 

Crolla is a Film waiting to be made. I cant belive he has not been marketed better? He is the nicest guy in boxing, nearly lost his career and could of lost his life in tackling two robbers stealing from next door. There is nothing negative or not to like about him.

Ticket Touts bought most of the tickets, they are not sold out.

 

Golovkin would ice groves imo. Groves hasn't looked the same since losing to Froch but he still has a very good jab.

Degale would be interesting with his awkward style but he takes too many rounds off and would get punished.

Eubank jnr would be such a fun fight to watch as he would just go for the kill so I can see it been an explosive 3 or 4 rounds.

Callum Smith isn't anywhere near ready just yet and to be honest I'm still not convinced by him. He has the Joe Gallagher trademark left hook but I don't think has the defensive skills to really step.up.to top level. He is very stiff at times and doesn't really feint as he comes in.

Saunders is the fight I would like to see over here.

 

If golovkin KO s brook he had better watch out brooks fans might palt the champ with black puddings and set T;wippitts on him .eeeeee
