    Move up in weight:-(. Yeah, I guess he'll have to since his promoters
    efforts to secure him unification or a shot at the "real" champ at 160
    has been a waste of time. It's easy to type in a bunch of drivel on
    a boxing forum, but when you actually don't know what you're talking
    about it really doesn't mean much. However, I couldn't expect anything
    less from a low IQ'd moron who floats from chatroom to chatroom because
    he won't leave his mom's basement.

    You're on GG's balls because the stateside white boys can't get it done.

    You gotta import a hero from overseas.:lol:

    You do realive GG doesn't have to abandon his MW title just to take a fight at 168........Others have done it......What makes GG so precious.?

    At his age you'd think he'd be a lot more ambitious...
    EE fighters don't dare to be great...thats an American trait:deal

    Look at Tszyu for example....he stayed in his place..he didn't even try to enter the Oscar sweepstakes.

    He didn't even have the balls to avenge his brutal KO loss to Vince Phillips...he just accepted that s.s-shipping...:lol:

    It must be cultural.

    Take an as.s-whipping and go on like nothing ever happened.

    Yeah because America have no fighters who duck challanges, Mayweather the biggest ducker in boxing and Ward to afraid to leave Oakland or fight anyone at 175

    Ducking challenges best describes EE trash.

    Floyd has been moving up to win belts since he was 21.
    GG hasn't and he's 31

    If Floyd is a duck then GG is a Mallard:rofl
    If Ward is afraid to fight anybody at 175 then GG is terrified to fight anyone at 168.

    You can't have it both ways Adolph..:lol:

    If GGG had a US passport or was a latino HBO would be all over him. But hes a freaking Asian/Russian. Hard to market in the US, no matter how good or exciting a boxer he is. The US is some of the least educated boxing audience on the planet.

    I call BS. Americans would support this guy if he would step up and fight someone. The Klitschko's were popular here before WLad started fight like a scared coward. American's are not watch someone taking easy fights. GGG needs to step the hell up and fight some top 10 fighters.

    Disagree here a bit. A lot of Americans paid to see Floyd fight Ortiz, Guerrero, Gatti and Canelo. None of them were worth sh*t.

    why do you even follow this sport man?

    i know ure just trolling but god damn are you really that bored in life?

    all these american fighters you talk about have 100000x the respect for those EE fighters then they would ever have for someone sitting on a keyboard talking **** :hi:

    anyone here talking as if HBO PASSED on this fight is dead wrong and this is documented pretty much all over the web. HBO badly wanted this fight on HBO2 and there's a good chance some heads might roll.

    WTF?!?

    The best professional prize fighters the sport has ever seen have come from the US.

    Europe, OTOH, has given us the Klitschkos.

    LOL...

    Osama is 22 wins 3 losses with 16 KO's.
    Not exactly a bum.
    He stepped up.
    Nobody else did.
    If HBO doesnt like it, then why dont they find an suitable opponent.
