    Quit making excuses for him and demand that he proves himself I'm tired of it. Other fighters aren't given this much time. There are tons of fighters 30 and younger with much better resumes without the amateur pedigree that ggg has.

    Ward gets drunk on the body and blood of Christ and prances around in priestly garments like ODLH did with lingerie.

    Ok, but that has little to do with moving up in weight. Guys are under 25 have a much easier time moving up in weight because they are still growing.

    Look at Canelo he started at 140 when he was 15 years old, but has already moved up to MW because his body grows.

    And you're asking him to go straight for the jugular and fight prime Ward and Kovalev.

    As Floyd moved to 140 he fought shot Gatti. At 147 he fought Carlos Freaking Baldomir, at 154 he fought semi-shot Oscar.

    Because GGG is a Great White Hope boxer. Gotta call it for what it is. All the excuses for their guy meanwhile, he's not even fighting good competition while being crowned as top 10 P4P.

    He jumped from 130 to 135 because he turned pro at 19 years old. Of course he couldn't stay at 130 his whole career.

    Martin Murray at the time that GGG beat him was the 2nd best MW in the world.

    Murray's response after the fight was "I've always said I wanted to fight the best and now I've done it, quite frankly he was just too good, I'm the 2nd best MW in the world".

    So it's not like they've been total bums.

    Hopkins moved up at over the age of 40. So did in his late 30s Calzaghe? What's GGG's excuse again?:deal

    I've never seen so many excuses in my life.:lol::rofl For every response you have an excuse. Instead of just saying you know you have a good point, he's 34 and doesn't have a win of note he needs to step it up.

    He's beaten the top 160 pounders in the world with ease. If he's comfortable with that then so be it. It's not my life. I never called him an ATG. I enjoy his fights.
