    Golovkin fears Murray! He's set himself up on the Felix Sturm WBA plan! ;)

    I certainly dont agree with FMJ on everything, but he is right on the "Money" when it comes to his thoughts on the alphabet titles. Seriously, this is all kinds of ridiculous.

    Silly sanctioning bodies just get paid a lot in sanc fees when people fight for a "title". So, why not mint more titles? :verysad

    Probably charge more to sanction a "Super Champion" fight.. GGG fights 4 times a year so easy money for WBA. :cus

    Classic WBA, trying to get back to the halcyon days when they had 3 Middleweight champions; Sturm, N'Kijam and GGG.

    Sturm:lol:

    And they say 160 is not dead..the fact that Felix is at the top of the division is proof it's dead.

    Does this mean that Murray is GGG's mandatory?

    Pretty sure they were ordered to fight a while ago because Murray was interim. Now... they promote GGG and have Murray fight for regular....

    In a world that made sense, they would make GGG and Murray fight first... them promote GGG to super if he won that... but , this is baxxxing....

    Right? Otherwise, why would they split the belts if they were going to be unified right away in a mandatory?
