    Take it up with the IBF and their laughable rankings. At least we know Golovkin wants to fight the best. Kell Brook has ducked Chaves and Rios.

    Don't know if Wade is the best competition America had to offer. What I do know is three things: 1. That was a one-sided beat down 2. It took very, very, basic boxing to take out a static target 3. Therefore, yet again, we've learned very little about GGG...

    They are trying to set up a big PPV no matter how good GGG is or isn't.
    GGG is a smug all hype, no defense hard hitter who has people afraid to stand in and fight him. The hype is enormas. GGG needs a real opponent who smacks his Ukrainian grin off his mutton face !

    Nothing to take up with the IBF. It was a question about if Wade was the best available.
    Not sure why you are going on about Brook in a Golovkin thread. They are completely different weight divisions

    I feel opponents are often very weary before they get in the ring with him and change things they would often do.
    I did feel in the interview after he was enjoying the praise put his way.
    Im really undecided but do think that he is looking for the fights in his division but dont think he is interested above MW, but think why should he be. He seems to want to clear out his own division and I dont see anything wrong with that.
    I am surprised that after so many title fights that GGG hasnt been built up more but he is in MW when it is not IMO as strong as it was a few years back

    If I had to rank best US MW: Jacobs > Quillin > Stevens > Rosado > Monroe jr. > Wade but Wade is probably the fourth best MW who has ***** to fight Golovkin so the order is more like: Stevens > Rosado > Monroe jr. > Wade

    The thing is Wade was ranked #3 IBF, #6 WBA,#8 WBC and #14 WBO and he gave rounds to ex-champion (Soliman) so he should have not been a push over and nobody should disrespect him for loosing to GGG. Same outcome could happen to every middleweight at the moment - GGG is that good. If he would just box and go 12rd with his opponents, people would think more highly on his opponents; Just look what happen when Ward faced #15 ranked cuban who has the same pedigree as Wade and Ward went 12rd with him..

    It´s just that esb forum has so many alts and person who have no ability for logical thinking or in fact understand what they are reading. They make their conclusion based on their passion which will bring us to two factors: Fear and greed. These two factor are the reason why stock market has ****yst.

    Golovkin is so good that he makes his opposition look bad. He would be dominant even though he would just go and win by points - he doesn´t loose rounds. For example who other Middleweight would dominate Wade, Lemieux, Murray, Monroe, Geale, Macklin or Stevens the way Golovkin did? And who could do that constantly? Jacobs had some success against Quillin, but what is his next most dominant performance? Canelo had hands full against Trout and Lara, he couldn´t dominate guys that are serious underdogs against GGG. Or even Hopkins? He was dominant in some fights but he lost rounds and rarely could stop guys of his own size the way Golovkin does. Believe me, we haven´t seen middleweight like Golovkin before, but the competition is more or less the same, as it has been for the past 25 years (This time period I know quite well).
