Is it funny that Golovkin wants Mayweather, but says he's not ready for Ward?

    I meant his trainer Abel Sanchez, he talks so ****ing much instead of training his fighter that you would think he was the manager; We'll fight anyone from 154-175!!!

    GGG never said that, he barley speaks English, Sanchez did.

    You dreaming Cotto will never give Golovkin a title shot. He doesn't bring **** to the table and all the major players in the middleweight division are all doing just fine without him. They guy You're dissing made 5 times what Golovkin made his last fight on HBO. How long have you GGGtards been talking about him cleaning out the middleweight division? He's 33 years old and has been a professional for almost 10 years and the best fighter he's fought in that tenperiod is Curtis fuking stevenson. :verysad
    7 years from when Golovkin will be 40, you dumb****s will be here talking about how he's weighting to clean up the middleweight division.:lol:
    but hey, he's exciting and everyone is ducking him.:rofl

    So its ok for a 6ft light heavyweight to want to fight mayweather, because hes proven how great he is.... yet a 5'10" middleweight that could make 154 shouldn't want to because he hasnt proved much yet.

    I just dont get that logic.

    People giving ward and Hopkins passes for wanting to fight mayweather, meanwhile also not holding ward to leaving a division he has cleaned out to take on the obvious open challenge against kovalev.... yet hold Golovkin to the fire every chance theg get when he hasn't even become true king of his division yet?

    Meh.... its just typical fanboys talking with an agenda.

    Explains why the big players in his division wont fight him, thus preventing G from getting the fights he needs

    Blasts G for not having big fights yet.

    How can you say that GGG shouldn't fight Ward because he doesn't bring anything to the table, but then say that the big players Cotto/Canelo are ducking him?

    By your logic. GGG doesn't bring anything to the table for Cotto either.

    SO is it a business decision or is it ducking?

    Business decisions often get confused with ducking, unfortunately. It's not always good for fans. I completely understand if someone wanted to wait for the "dangerous" fighter to build a better fan base, increasing the pay day. I wouldn't fight Golovkin for "crumbs" lol

    When Martinez was Champion no one accused him of docking Kid chocolate and Felix sturm even though both guys wanted and deserved to fight him as much as Golovkin. Cotto got the opportunity before other title holders because not only was he more accomplished than other belt holders, he brought a significant large fan and financial reward to Martinez. As much as Golovkin fans wan't to brand him as some kind of cash cow, he simply isn't.

    Now there is a guy at super middle weight who's looking for an opponent and have shown interest in fighting Golovkin. But, Golovkin and his fans are claiming that he doesn't bring enough financial reward even though Wards last opponent, who's not as well known as Golovkin Made more than twice what Golovkin has ever made in his career. And, if Golovkin was to fight Ward not only will he be handsomely compensated more than Rodriguez was, but he will receive all the accolades that comes with beating Ward.

    Golovkin has made open that he's willing to fight anyone between 154 pounds and 175 pounds. He was happy and willing to fight Charvez Jr @ 168, but the moment someone bring up Ward he changes his story to how he wants to first clean up the middle weight division.

    Look, no one is asking Golovkin to do anything that has never been done before. Adonise Stevenson moved up to beat Chad Dawson, Bernard Hopkins skipped two weight classes to school Antonio Tarva. Cotto started his career at 140 and KO'd Martinez at 160. When Martinez felt he was being docked at 154, he moved to 160 to beat Kelly Pavlik who was significantly larger than him. Pac is fight in like his 8 weight class. Jones Jr started his career at 154 and won a belt at heavyweight. So, I don't want to hear that nonsense about how Golovkin is a small middleweight, because since I've been watching him I've never seen him against anyone that's bigger than him.

    Thats it it. I'm done rambling.

    Well thought out post.

    I think Cotto wouldn't fight GGG too much risk too little reward. I actually think Canelo would fight GGG in a heartbeat but GBP would probably advise him not to and not allow it to take place.

    Your'e the one swinging the sword bro.

    None of GGG fans believe Cotto has an obligation to commit suicide vs legitimate MWs.

    Just like most of GGGs fans believe that Cotto should go head and sell his title to GBP, ie Canelo and let Canelo fight Cottos MW battle, afterall, he is starving himself to make 155, he's only 23, so he's still a growing boy, and he'll fill out nicely to MW and SMW in the coming yrs.

    Problem is that GGG haterz want GGG to go to SMW so he can be called a ducker when Canelo does move up, and when Ward runs off to LHW, he'll get stuck fighting corpses like Bika, Kessler, Froch etc, and punchbags like Abraham and Chavez Jr while guys like the Dirrels hide behind their promotional banner. :rofl

    ...except the money isn't there (yet). Golovkin made it clear that he was only moving up or down for a big PPV fight -look it up- which Chavez Jr would have been and which Ward isn't. Ward himself claims he's attained PPV status, and Ward-Golovkin is smaller in magnitude than Ward-Dawson which wasn't even PPV.
