Golovkin is half Russian, half Korean who just happened to be born in Kazakhstan republic of the Soviet Union. Ukranians and Russians are basically the same ethnicity.
GRRRRRR!!!!! Fight Hagler, fight Hearns, fight the ghost of Willie Pepp..... GRRRRR!!!!!!!!! Pay Mayweather 1 million for the honor to fight him at 151 lbs. GRRRR!!!! Ward and Lara....................
Its like saying Hopkins never fought an elite fighter in his middleweight reign untilhe fought a blown up welterweight in Tito in 2001. That means he went from Mercado in 1994 to Trinidad in 2001, 15 fights and no real stand out names just solid yetbunspectacular opponents.
It's weird how GGG fangirls get upset when normal boxing fans want Bummyluvkin to step up. DeGale is doing more than Bummy in a shorter amount of time because he wants to be great. DeGale has the CHEEN and style to beat up Bummy but Bummy would rather wait for the chance to fight a shopworn midget.. atsch:rofl I wouldn't call him a coward, but if it walks like a duck, talks like a duck and acts like a duck.. IT'S A DUCK.
wasn't this a similar the case with floyd? but most thought it was acceptable to put floyd down. every1 loves to hate.
Not really. Mayweather Jr chose not to match perceived worthy challengers, who were willing to fight him. Golovkin is finding it difficult to find willing challengers.
