Why does GGG keep calling out smaller fighters than him??

    Chavez turned down a guaranteed $12 million to face Golovkin as part of a two-fight deal and he would've netted $17 in total had he actually won the Golovkin fight. Regardless of whether anyone feels the blame for Chavez turning that offer down lies at his feet or Arums, that's a f*ck lot of cash and Golovkin was well up for it.

    Yeah, I stated that. You said you were tired and heavily medicated so you probably missed it.

    I really like Lee and to be perfectly honest as badly as I want to see Golovkin achieving his dream of unifying all the belts at 160, and it's an absolute disgrace he has been denied the opportunity to do so for so long, I'd rather not see them fight each other just like I wouldn't have wanted to see Golovkin in there against the brain-damaged Taylor when he won his title against Soliman.

    Sorry to hear that. You've mentioned this to me before (that you were heavily sedated). I hope whatever it is that is wrong gets better soon. :good

    So, you're saying if you lose a fight you're done and you can't beat ggg? Wow....

    Let me see.... Tim Bradley beat Manny and JMM knocked out Manny. Did you protest Manny fighting top boxers again? Manny has 6 losses but he gets second chances. Why can't another fighter?

    it looks to me like he's saying if you ain't good enough to beat jack, you have very little chance v ggg. reasonable, i'd say.

    Cotto has a belt that ought to belong to GGG. Canelo is just as big as GGG. Floyd says he's the p4p king and he should prove it. Kovalev is too big, and Ward isn't a draw; so he'd be better off calling out Froch. But even then those smaller guys are all bigger draws and Golovkin want's to get paid before he retires.
