    :deal

    When Golovkin had his chance to beat the top guy at 168 he passed on it. Everyone does it but GGG.

    Even Calzaghe moved up and beat the top guys at 175.
    Mayweather beat 3 top guys at 154.
    Pacquiao fought the top guys at 145 and Floyd at 147.
    Roy Jones
    James Toney
    Kelly Pavlik
    Ray Leonard
    Roberto Duran
    Tommy Hearns
    Evander Holyfield
    David Haye
    Chris Eubanks
    Vinny Pazienza
    Oscar De La Hoya
    Julio Cesar Chavez
    and on and on and on

    Only 3 guys seem happy at 1 weight, Hagler , Canelo and Golovkin

    Resume isn't the end all be all. There's something to be said for how you perform in those fights too.

    Trinidad beat the top 2 guys @ 154 - and an argument can be made that Thiam was top 5. Not only did Tito beat these guys, he beat them in BRUTAL fashion.

    That's called DOMINATION...

    I still think Golovkin moves up and fights Zurdo at some point.

    Call me when Bumlovkin puts in a good performance against someone who isn't a TOMATO CAN or an extra from the Walking Dead...

    Thiam wasn't even in the top 10... David Reid and Vargas were top 154 pounders. But dominating a division requires you fight for an extended period of time against multiple top guys.

    Eubank = Eurotrash

    Lets be honest here. The only reason why you Bumlovkinites are hyping this dude is because he's looking like the next stop on the Triple Duck's Bum of the Month tour.

    That shouldn't even need to be explained.

    Yet nay sayer thinks because Tito beat Vargas who beat Winky and Ike, that automatically translates to Tito's wins over them. What a noob...:patsch

    I agree that Golovkin's resume leaves something to be desired. But to say that he has only fought bums is disrespectful to the top rated guys(in his division) that he's fought.
