Gennady "GGG" Golovkin vs David Lemieux, Oct 17th
- Thread starter 2-0-Sixx
- Start date
Honestly, I don't see anyone stopping GGG. Maybe someone a la Ward/Mayweather could do it (depending on the weight), but this guy is relentless coming forward all the time. Not many can deal with that kind of pressure. You really need to be on a bicycle beating this guy. Canelo/Cotto are going to get smoked either way.
No it doesn't man. Most people in the boxing world don't think that highly of the Dawson win. His trainer talked about how absolutely dead he was from cutting weight he was a zombie. Dawson had to lose muscle mass for that. Think about it. Dawson doesn't KO anyone but he drops Dawson multiple times and stops him? Dead man walking into that ring.
Boxing historians love when fighters win world championships in multiple weight classes, that's the kind of stuff that gets u into the HOF and if Ward would have won a belt at 175 that goes a long way but he didn't do that. Beating Dawson at 168 is literally beating an unranked fighter in that division.

The only way Ward could beat him is if he has one of those refs that always ref his fights and Klitschko's fights, you know, the ones that allow fighters to cheat by excessive clinching which is of course against the rules but somehow guys like Ward and Clinchko are allowed to do it nonstop. So yeah, Ward would just be a much bigger guy so if he's allowed to keep wrestling him, smothering him and holding every three seconds by the ref he could probably get a decision in Oakland. If he's forced to actually fight he could be in trouble.
Yes we're talking about GGG. The majority of us here have said Cotto needs to drop the belt. However, if he is going to campaign as a MW champ then he is fair game. Personally I don't want to see the slaughter and feel Canelo is more at home at MW but he has his own weight class of Canelo Weight so who knows?
Let the man clear out his division and unify the belts like he's been trying to do for years.

I know he can, but u were saying he would be in the HOF right now lol so obviously were talking about what he's accomplished up till today not what he might be able to do one day.

Don't hold your breath, gotta get through the next three tuneups (I wish I was joking about that).
Seriously who does that? Guys who get KTFO don't even take three tuneup ups.

The limit for LHW in Olympics is 165-176 (rounded up.)The limit for MW is 152-165.
So why is Ward calling out a cat that is way smaller and then, if the fighter asks for a catch weight, he says no? If GGG is asking for 164 catchweight that's 1 lb lighter than the LHW weight range in the Olympics so why is it a problem?
And Stevenson and Kovalev is not going to happen any time soon as BHOP did a bitch move. In addition, Stevenson and camp released the emails exposing HBO and Duva so it's most likely never going to happen. But you all fell for the lies Duva was saying but when those emails were released all you heard was crickets, lol. And get this, I have Kovalev to beat Stevenson, lol.

Honestly didnt see the e-mails and i know Stevenson is not solely to blame at this point. Its still terrible that the 2 top fighters in the division arent gonna ever fight eachother.
Yeah im not gonna make excuse for Ward not coming down in weight. My only guess is its become harder for him to even make 168.
