Since When Did Bums/Marketing Hype Jobs Cause So Much Fear in the Opposition?

That's the big fluorescent elephant standing in the middle of the room here.

Some even openly support other fighters ducking him and then blame Golovkin for not having fought them. :nut

 

ggg ducked ward

 

Depends how you define 'ducking' I guess. Couldn't really simultaneously pursue Ward and the Lineal MW champ for a mega-fight. It was one or the other. I would have prefered the Ward fight myself, but if you criticise GGG for that the list of fighters you'd have to apply the 'ducking' appellation to is long indeed.

 

Omg lets move on, everyone is saying the SAME THING in different words.

 

Past prime GGG would comatose prime Mayweather (the one that ducked Pacquiao).

 

The only fear factor that I connect with GGG is him fighting yet another fringe opponent….I actually like the guy but I can't support him at the moment and I won't blame exterior factors. If he wants glory he would have already went for it, either his team of advisors needs to be washed away or he needs to grow some ***** and find someone to support the hype. I won't insult the man because he is quite talented and a breath of fresh air but its wasting away and all the foregone conclusions his that his most adament fans attempt to overwhelm the boxing world with and convince us he's the greatest thing since slice bread need to wake up and push him. The real irony that exists here is I find that his staunchest supporters love to downplay Floyd's career lololol…..at 34 years of age what did Floyd accomplish…hmmmm.

 

He had ducked Pacquiao by that point, his career defining accomplishment.

 

164 if I was golovkin I would have said 160 jackass or no fight.no duck there

 

chavez would have taken fight...but had a dispute with arum over future money(this is similar to floyd having a dispute over future money before he left arum and left the margarito fight on the table...had bob guaranteed floyd another measley 2 mil apiece for future fights against hatton and cotto floyd would have fought him)

froch is a 38 year old retired warrior who decided not to fight again

canelo is still moving up and took a belt that has been defended at a cw 3x in a row now...he is still not comfortable at full 160...he has moved up from welter to jr middle and trying to make the move...if he werent standing in teh way of ggg having that belt most of you would be understanding towards his plight

sergio was an old and near finished fighter looking for a cashout fight so he took cotto instead

quillin is a b level fighter....saunders is as well

and last but not least..ggg ducked andre ward like a fgt

 

he chose to fight a bum on ppv
