Comments Thread For: WBA: Golovkin's Request For Super Champion Denied

[Box-Office]

Bowe only did that because he had to defend the belt against his #1 Lennox Lewis though, and Big Daddy wanted absolutely NONE of Lewis. Man ran like a Kenyan Olympian. Did the belt like Brenda's baby. Smh

Yeh i know the Bowe reason but i was in this case implying that a guy like Golovkin is above this lame belt and get rid of it he deserves better.

I want him to after Felix Sturm who ran for years like a as u said Kenyan Olympian and since hes IBF champ who enforce mandatories better i have hopes

...that's £121k. Then 40% tax, trainer fees, manager fees...Murray's not left with a great deal, I can see why they tried to negotiate albeit they should have asked Murray himself, it seems they never tell him anything until after they make the decision on his behalf.

Golovkin could have forced the purse bid at any time. It's not the WBA's fault. Golovkin has been the one asking for special permission to fight the guys he has been fighting lately. If K2 makes arrangements with Hatton, that's not something the WBA can interfere with.

That's pretty crap money... even with a Golovkin fight, he'd be making that much after everything is taken away.
So shouldn't they be happy they didn't force a purse bid?
Even Doktor said Golovkin should force a purse bid and criticized him for it. Then he says Martin Murray is all about the money...
?!?!?!?!
WHAT?!

Like Gabe said, forcing a purse bid isn't going to fix anything because you deal with less money. What is it... a 75/25 split in favor of the champion? WTF, less money going around for everyone because whoever wins the purse bid is going to win while bidding as low as they can.

Purse bid don't fix nothing, Murray just gonna drop the belt.

Murray might as well chance getting Sturm, who has limitless options if he doesn't like the risk/reward with Golovkin.
He sure as hell ain't getting Sergio again and Quillin don't offer as much as Golovkin

Sturm can throw money at another beltholder and unify, like he did with Geale to defer GGG's mando. Then when mando due again, drop the IBF belt

Only belt holder he's getting is Quillin since he's scared shitless of Golovkin.
How many voluntaries he have while Golovkin was his mando?

I'm sure Sergio/Cotto would love to unify vs Sturm, who'd probably risk it with broken down Serg or small Cotto even in the US.

Not really sure when the mando kicked in. Once he got super champ status he's free from mandos for a while. Seemed like when ggg signed with K2, they started putting pressure on Sturm

Serg/Cotto winner will want canelo next...if Cotto wins, it'd be faster than Sergio who has 1 HBO fight left.

Yeah I suppose the winner will have options better than Sturm, especially if Cotto won. Though the winner is probably an HBO fighter, so maybe no Canelo. Sturm is certainly appealing for Sergio, a pretty low risk unification for good money, against a name champ. Battle of the prettyboys, could cross over maybe, get teen girls and gays into boxing

Sergio didn't have a decent win till like 35. Froch had nothing till 31, same for Rigo.

How many fighters doing **** at 35 either 38?

Why u decided lowskilled can crusher Golovkin with terrible defensive game is one of them?

Have u seen last time him fighting another ultimate can... when champion been taking all the punches on his face?

i bet, u even haven't ever heard of Curtis Stevens before the greatest Golovkin picked on that one.
Same **** to Osumana Madama.

that's how "great" he is and his champion opposition.

Cotto doesn't have an exclusive contract, so free reign for him.
Sergio on the other hand would need to bring Sturm to the States because HBO aren't going to Germany.

Even then, I think HBO will try and make Golovkin the last HBO fight on their contract
