Gennady Son Of Gennady versus Monroe plus Chocolatito thread

[Spicoli]

If anything..Cotto will apparently always speak better English than Golovkin

[Gandalf]

I don't think Ward is active enough to be part of the conversation. Cotto has no interest in a challenge anymore, so maybe Canelo is the only one who would have the guts and preparedness to give GGG a fight. I don't know. SMW can wait, but just get some names on the resume. It is a very busy resume, but a bit hollow for a 33 year old. Monroe fought well, but who is he?

[IamInuit]

Alvarez and Cotto aren't going near this guy no matter how easy he is to hit. He's going to stay on the west coast fighting Monroe-level guys for a while yet.

Cotto has no choice. The Kazak is his mandatory. Its interesting that those two names came up and yet neither are middleweights or done anything to suggest they are at the top in that division.

Also interesting is that he has already been contacted to step aside to allow Alvarez/Cotto. If I were him given his age and struggle to get noticed I would not step aside. Not even for 7 figures and a right to immediately fight the winner.

Andre Ward was booed heartily when his name was mentioned.

A Kazakh who has only been fighting in the US for like two and a half years or something is not only selling more tickets than Ward in his home country, but he's doing it in Ward's home state and the locals are booing Ward.

That IS amazing when you think about it. What that tells you is that people are generally fed up with Ward's inactivity. They'll warm up to an action, busy fighter instead..... any day of the week. If I were Ward I'd pull a David Haye or a Shannon Briggs on Wlad. I'd be calling out GGG so bad the fight would HAVE to happen.

Monroe doing some nice work. Guys got metal. The Kazak is looking for the right hand highlight reel a little to much

That short left uppercut was GGGs money punch tonight.

Yeah he's usually a little left hook happy but he went a little right hand centric tonight. Maybe his first southpaw in awhile.

[Spicoli]

Monroe made a very early decision for survivals sake, he sat in and tried to punch him off. He accepted there to knock him out or vice versa I believe. Prob one of the most effective inside rounds Golo has faced in 4th.

Howdy, Kirk. <br />

Gonzalez looked ridiculous in that first round. <b><u>He has one of those Canelo type built up records, but he looks decent.</u></b>

<br />
You'd think so, but NO comparison.<br />
<br />



As opposed to Canelo, Chocolatito was venturing outside Nicaragua, fighting in Japan by his 15th fight. He's been brought along normally,
increasing his level of opposition
along the way, the way it's <b><i>supposed</i></b> to be done.

After this long and you're still a hater

[TitoFan]

Consistency.



Hey... it's only reserved for two fighters.
No hate for any others.

[beenKOed]

I like how Golovkin just ignores Max's question and says what he wants

Me too! Sometimes Kellerman's questions are irritating.

[beenKOed]

GGG basically just said he wants a big money fight against anyone smaller than him.

Way to go chump!

Sounds like Floyd when he was talking about fighting Manny. Of course Floyd was talking about real money.😱😺

Alvarez and Cotto will fight for the middleweight belt at probably 155 and then both return to 154. I don't think either of them go near Golovkin. Maybe Alvarez down the line when he absolutely can't make 154 but definitely not Cotto.

[IamInuit]

Told ya....WBC President to allow Canelo-Cotto fight if they sign contract to defend against Golovkin

And if they don't abide by the contract then they get the belt taken off them. But whoever wins will just vacate the belt anyway and go back to 154.

Didn't the WBC pull this exact stroke a few years ago to convince some other high risk low reward guy that he was guaranteed a massive payday, only for the two potential paydays to head off in other directions after they fought?

I forget who it was exactly but this same thing happened a few years ago.
