    The Americentric programming is already set.

    Apparently Golovkin can NEVER do anything that would make him a better MW than Hopkins, Rjj. Toney or Hagler.

    Perhaps if Golovkin got tooled by a Dave Tiberi type or fought to a draw with a Vito Antifermo(sp) or dove out of the ring against a Robert Allenesque opponent he then just MIGHT have enough upward potential to be spoken in the same sentence with such manufactured prophets.

    Actually you guys dissapiont me. Why did you leave out Monzon?

    Dude, he's 32 and MW, while not as shallow as some make out, isn't terribly deep.

    Projecting that he won't be able to reach the heights of a Hagler or Hopkins is hardly an insult, nor does it require being a hater! Being in the conversation right behind the likes of them is a compliment itself.

    Both Lara and Andrade beat the brakes off of Golovkin.

    Triple Duck will *never* beat Ward so why is this nonsense even part of the conversation?

    Why is Lara still fighting at 154 then?
    Andrade would get his jaw blown out.

    Floyd Mayweather and Canelo Alvarez.

    Why did Triple Duck's handlers catch a bad case of amnesia when Erislandy called him out?


    Slick boxers are Kryptonite for that flat footed, slow ass, stand straight up Eastern European style of "boxing". Golovkin would get SCHOOLED...

    Erislandy Lara fights on Showtime, at a different weight and does **** numbers.
    Why would he be on GGG's radar, Nay_Sayer? This has already been explained to you.
    Lara had 3 options if he really wanted that fight:
    1. Leave GBP/Haymon
    2. Go to 160 and get in position for a mandatory shot at the WBA belt
    3. Go to 160 and get another belt for unification and hope HBO makes an exception.

    Lara didn't do any of that though, because it's easier to talk about it on twitter and there are morons out there like you who just eat it up like govt. cheese.

    Andrade leaves his chin hanging out in the air. He'd get the ring cut off on him and get put on the floor.
    Go be a numb skull somewhere else.
