It's just such a shame that the middleweight division is so poor. The only glamour fight is Alvarez who is not going to fight him and would let's face it get splattered if he did ever take the fight. Golovkin too good for his own good.

Never seen a tko via right hook to the shoulder before.
Almost every time this fucker fights we get to see something weird.Quote:

The middleweight division is such a unique division because history proves you have to be a natural 160 pounder to remain competitive. Probably the most difficult division to move up to.Quote:

It's a real shame Hopkins isn't 10 years younger as he would at least make Golovkin have to show a few things and wouldn't be scared of the challenge. Golovkin is nearly as old as me and it's a shame he isn't getting the competition he needs. Someone will come along and Golovkin will be old and that isn't when you want to see him tested.
It was the uppercut a second or two before that had him badly hurt.Quote:

All of those are leagues ahead of poor Wade.
Referee was a dick forcing the kid to continue after that 2nd knockdown. Was clear he was done.
Well to be Fair to GGG the mw divsion has never really been that strong i mean lets look at the greats. Hopkins best win was fucking Tito who was not great at mw and Dela hoya not really a mw his best wins were not in the mw divsion. Monzon another guy that was beating up on guys moving up in weight. Hagler the division was shit but Duran and Hearns moved up they were good wins but Hearns was the only guy to have huge success in higher weights. I can not understand how a weight class that a lot people are close to that weight in world can be so poor. I guess the talent has always been in ww,lw and even lhw have had deeper division the mw are like hws only Hw is king because they can beat everyone because there fucking huge i really do not get how there not more talent in this divsion.
Ok, another KO , another opponent obliterated. Now we'll get the usual " he's fought nobody" barbs. It's not his fault he can't get some useful opposition, after all , let's not forget he was supposed to fight the Canelo/Cotto winner now. It's them who decided to have nothing of him, and I'm certain Canelo will swerve him again.
He can't do much about that. He wants to mop up all the belts, at this rate they'll be given to him, then we'll see what he's got .
You can't say he is one of the greats because he hasn't had the competition to prove that. What we do know is
He's the best MW out there by miles
He has rocks in his gloves
He gets hit too often from a purists point of view, but it only serves to show that he has a granite chin.
To be honest being the best mw right now is kinda pointless the division is a baron waste land with least talent it has been in past 20 years. GGG good but if he going to find some comp to prove his greatness he might want to give 168 or 175 a try not sure how much he cuts though.Quote:

He wants to unify the division, if that's what he wants to do , that's up to him.Quote:

I think he beats every SMW Out there at the moment.
Golovkin clearly stood and let Wade hit him 4 - 5 times in round two in the hope of making more of a "Big Drama Show" but just walk through them then beat him to the floor, one Knockdown was the result of Wade being hit on the top of his arm and the force of it put him on the floor.
He needs to fuck this division off and move up to Super Middle where there are at least a few decent fights for him but i think he'll go for Hopkins record of 20 straight Middleweight defences.
If he's serious about giving the fans what they want then he needs to move division and stop waiting on a scared Mexican who's happy to fight guys 2/3 weight divisions below him.
Show's how Shit the Middleweights are when the Mandatory challenger is allowed to land 4-5 free undefended punches by the Champ.
That simply shouldn't happen at elite levels,
