Couldn't make it through the article once I saw the writer didn't know the truth. He says GGGs only mission has been to unify 160. Not true at all. He has been looking to go up since Steiglitz in2011-Chavez-Froch if the opponent is right or go down for Floyd.
That is why GGG has "detractors", some just want the truth to be told. And so many refuse to face the truth with him. I never see people say he is a jerk even though he admits he and his brothers would go around looking for people to beat up. I never see people say he can't fight. The only real insult I ever see is that his CV is flimsy and it is.
GGG boxing career is quality and the best middleweight by far which is no small feat. Yes he could go up or down in weight but he has stayed at the weight and unified a lot of the belts which is what we want to see.
I want to see Canelo v GGG.
I don't hate GGG I actually quite like him but I also do believe he's not beat anyone that good yet so maybe that's why a lot maybe dislike him there's an awful lot of hype around him, I really hope canelo fights GGG @160 that would be a great victory for GGG if he can win
That is a reasonable post from you. I think you recognise that dominating and stopping the fighters he has faced demonstrates that he is something special. A lot of people want him to face literally bigger challenges because he is that good which I can understand but do not think is right for him to do yet.Quote:

Same reason people the other way around hated Floyd and still hate him...
Canelo say's he's the Champ and the fight would have to be at 155lbs,! what a joke GGG is the
middle weight Champ the limit is 160lbs, they don't fancy a beating so the contender makes
stipulations, Canelo you fight the middle weight champ fight at the weight, not a weight you fancy
only one winner GGG, Canelo will not last the distance.;)
I have found that Floyd fans appear most often to dislike GGG. I don't know if it is racism or not. It might be just that he isn't American.
@Ron Swanson I doubt it is because he has a thin resume. There is no reason why one can't appreciate a fighter with a thin resume, especially when he is a knockout artist. It is not like he has avoided anyone at his natural weight class. He has unified the titles and people at or around his weight class have avoided him. Compare the hate GGG gets with Thurman. Thurman's resume isn't deep at all. Yet, he isn't close to as polarizing as GGG.
I don't get the GGG critics.... The guy has scored like 22 KO's in a row, looks to take guys out first and the other champs at his weight have been ducking him... After this fight vs. the very capable Kell Brook team GGG has plans and hand shake agreements for fight(s) at 168 vs. guys like WBC Silver super middleweight champ Callum Smith 20-0 (15 KO) & IBF Super Middleweight champ James DeGale 23-1 (14 KO)..... I think if GGG has no hiccups vs. Brook then takes on and soundly beats one of the two 168 guys mentioned above then that should finally quiet his critics.... Forever....
He's like a well oiled punching machine.
Fought decent opponents but would get DECAPITATED by Froch, Ward, Hopkins, Hagler, and oirslicked by Calzaghe.
Plus His face is ridiculous and BOY DOES HIS ENGLISH REALLY SUCK!!!!
People disliked Hagler why because he was so dame good,! he was a cut above everyone else.Quote:

He is one of the best Middleweights I have seen in years.
I fear for Brook I can see him smashed in a few rounds I can see why Brook took the fight money.
GGG is a super fighter hat's off to anybody facing him I'm the ring.
Thurman isnt considered a pound 4 pound king so isnt under the same scrutiny as GGG. Put Thurman in the P4P list at 2 or 3 on his record and the hate would come.Quote:

I'll say that paired with the attitude (tears down fighters before a fight then bigs them up afterwards...what the fuck is that about you just said "the guy is a bum" you can't do an about face on that remark after a fight unless you lose or the fight is close) of Floyd Mayweather Jr is why I dislike Floyd....fucking amazing boxer I just wanted to see him tested or see him make the big fights and not cherry pick, what he did was cherry pick it was best for him and that's fine, but as a fan I'd rather a few losses be on the record rather than see him skate through a career unscathed and I reckon that is exactly why GGG has his detractors.
Don't be sillyQuote:

As the Floyd fans tend to say, "This half breed is a bum. Any good black fighter would wipe him out."
Not hate for GGG. But I don't think he done anything to say he is an outstanding boxer. Now that's not his fault because the middle weight is pretty barren.Quote:

They were all floating around the light middle, middle, super middle divisions.
Everyone in that list would beat Triple G.
If Triple G is open to "everybody" then please call out Ward or Lara and see if they want that action. No more bums and no more smaller fighters moving up to 160.
Pussie G gets exposed the MOMENT he fights a legit fighter. His team are are spooked of Ward and Lara. Man I would LOVE to see this pussie fight Ward.
But he is too bytch made to move up in weight. At 168 DeGale, Callum Smith and Ramirez all kick his ass. His power is still there, but his reflexes are shot.
Callum Smith gets nowhere near GGG at the moment, give it a while and yeah maybe, right here and now, no fucking chance, DeGale is quite happy living with his belt and doing fuck all, I can't see him doing it eitherQuote:

IMO, it's mostly Canelo fans, bitter that GGG has exposed the raw fear in Canelo, and they blame him for it.
Also Floyd fans, mainly because they are wankers.Quote:

He beat a welterweight last night just like canelo beat Khan.
Would we all praise Andre ward if he beat a smaller canelo in 5 rounds?
GGG is a great fighter but floyd would humiliate him if they were in the same weight class..easy work..all up and down..no flashy effects..lol
GGG fans are preying ward gets destroyed by kovalev..lets hope after ward beats Sergey he won't loose anything dropping weight meeting GGG at 168 for a superfight.
Such a shame Billy joe has jumped on the same scared shitless bandwagon of GGG as I find him a good boxer that has all the skills to cause an upset..if he believes in himself.
Floyd's last great flashy effects fight was years ago.Quote:

GGG would stop Floyd at middleweight within 6. ;)

Floyd beats GGG like canelo in every round at floyds weight..watch the canelo fight in slow motion and you will see why boxing can be called beautiful..and old floyd was years out of his prime.Quote:

Watch a Floyd fight at normal speed is boring, trying to watch it in slow motion would kill me.Quote:

I have to admit Floyd was brilliant that night but Canelo was slow as a snail and did not use his advantages. I wonder if having to take off the extra pounds made a difference?
I was really disappointed in Canelo and he has subsequently been a pussy since.
GGG can never make welterweight or light middle. He stays at middleweight.
