    REED and Sly are both darkskin cats and I'm lightskin.

    What are the odds that THEY the super sensitive ones?

    That's posed to be a lightskin trait.

    Nah, that’s how it usually is. Dark skin people carry a lot of baggage, just like their granddaddy.

    That takes it to a level I wasnt trying to go to.

    I was half joking, and obviously i have love for dark skin cats.

    But REED is notoriously sensitive.

    He takes anyone disagreeing with him as a personal slight, whereas I just dont give a shit enough to take it personal.

    But I'll never hesitate to retaliate when someone gets unnecessarily huffy and moist.

    That's where I see that you're not a boxing fan but a HBO groupy.

    Jack and Degale were mediocre fighters no one cared about and no boxing fan was calling on GGG to fight them. At all.

    It was purely an internet message board tactic from people who had decided they were anti GGG and it was petty, bitch ass, transparent shit.

    Again, if you weren't interested in these fights, and thought that Jack and Degale were/are mediocre and easy fights for GGG, it simply show that you don't know much about the sport, and are more interested in seeing networks and promoters building superheroes than seeing compelling matchup

    GGG and Canelo were two p4p level fighters and big names fighting in the same division. There was no logic for GGG to move up a division and fight guys no one cared about. This “boxing fan” bullshit doesn’t work because boxing fans didn’t care.

    I saw them fight Medina and Bute live in front of a tiny half empty arena that was 3/4 empty by the time the fights were over. They looked like shit, they couldn’t draw a crowd and the people that showed up walked out on them.

    Maybe if they had unified but they were so average they fucked that up.

    “If you think James Degale is mediocre you just don’t know the sport!”

    Frenchy’s on a roll again.

    No way that people were leaving early on the Bute fights. These were exciting fights

    mediocre is dominic wade or willie monroe jr and pretty much all the other flotsam GGG faced through his career. Degale is not elite but he's far from mediocre

    Lmao. I’ve never seen it recorded but watching it live it looked like two tepid points fighters counter tapping each other. People literally left to beat the traffic.

    People have pointed to the crowd booing as proof Degale struggled or even lost to Medina. He dominated Medina and everyone there knew it, but it was boring and Medina looked like the one trying to entertain us with big swings that never landed. There didn’t seem to be any bad intentions in what Jack and Bute were doing.

    If not for the MGM that card May have killed televised boxing in the area.

    You Didn't "Disagree" w/REED, You Called Him a Golovkin HATER...For the 337th Time...For the Better Part of 4 Fucking Years Now...And Not 1nce Have You EVER Backed it Up w/ANYTHING of Merit...The Next Time You Do Will Be the 1st Time You Did...When You Continue to Regurgitate a Point You're CLEARLY INCAPABLE of Defending, Shit Gets Old...

    REED is CONSISTENT In his Criticism of GGG; His RESUME and the FACT he's Perfectly Content Biding his Time, Feasting on BUMS, Until a Money Fight Comes Along...

    Not 1nce Has REED EVER Talked Shit About Him as a PERSON or as a MAN...Not 1nce Has REED EVER Said the Dude WASN'T a Talented Fighter...Not 1nce Has REED Spoken Negatively of Golovkin IN the Ring...REED has Consistently Criticized Him in a PARTICULAR Area...

    Even You CAN'T Justify his Resume, Yet EVERYfuckingTIME REED References it, You Whip Out that "Hater" Bullshit, Like an Overprotective, Sack Slurping Kazakh Lover...Did Golovkin Make YOUR Bitchass "Good Boy" or Something, Because You RUN to his Fucking Defense at Every GOTdamn Turn...

    You're NOT "Retaliating" Motherfucker, You INSTIGATED This Bullshit...REED's the One "Retaliating"...

    So Either EXPLAIN How Criticizing GGG's Resume Makes REED a "Hater" OR Grow the Fuck Up and Find Some NEW Material...

    Have You Parroted the Same TIRED, UNFOUNDED, JUVENILE Theme to the Aforementioned for Nearly Half a Fucking Decade? No, You Haven't...

    There's a Difference in Being "Sensitive" and Being TIRED of a Bullshit Premise that You Have YET to Prove...

    So Fuck You in your High Yella, Octoroon Ass Motherfucker...Sooooo Light Skinned You're SEE THRU...Go Get Some RAYS Bitch...

    "Rage" is Typically Accompanied by Anger, an Emotion REED has NEVER 1nce Directed Towards GGG...

    No Boxing Fan was Intrigued by GGG vs. Monroe or Wade Either...A DeGale Fight Would've @ Least Garnered Triple G a Title in a Different Weight Class...

    As REED Explained to Neil, @ NO Point Did he Say or Suggest GGG Should Disregard Facing Canelo...Not Sure When You and Neil Got that Thought in Your Heads or WHY You Continue to Accuse REED of Saying That...He Didn't...

    In the INTERIM, ie., as he was WAITING for Canelo, REED Suggested a Move to '68, @ a Catchweight of GGG's Choosing, for Something MORE Meaningful than Monroe/Wade...And 1nce Canelo Stopped Ducking, GGG Could've Always Moved BACK DOWN...Shit Happens All the Time in Boxing, Yet Motherfuckers Like YOU Act Like it's Unheard Of...

    There's NATHAN More Bitchass and Girly Than PROJECTING YOUR Bullshit to What a Another Motherfucker Actually Said...And Please SPARE REED that "Negro" Shit Dude...Not That YOU'D Know, But ACTUAL Black People Don't Say That Shit Anymore...What's Next, "Colored"???...

    Right. As someone in the boxing game, you would seriously deem it wise to have a fighter in his mid 30s move up 8 pounds and then drop back down?

    Golovkins lack of ambition is over stated. He was scheduled to face pirog, who had just KOd Jacobs, in his hbo debut. Then pirog broke his back. Martinez was the champ and flat out ducked him. Cotto became champ and wanted no part of him.

    Are You PURPOSELY NOT Paying Attention Neil???...

    8 Pounds???...Golovin Could've DEMANDED a Catchweight of '64 JUST AS HE DID TO FACE ANDRE WARD!!!...You Motherfuckers Have These CONVENIENT Ass Memories, Accusing Others of HATE, w/Out REEDing or KNOWING All the Information...

    Ward-GGG Didn't Happen Because Golovkin DEMANDED a Catchweight of '64...Not Only is this Documented, Not Only is REED NOT Blaming GGG for Demanding It, REED POSTED a Fucking Link PROVING This, a Couple Years Ago, the LAST Time You Went This Route in a GGG "Moving Up" Discussion...This Rinse-Repeat Shit is Getting VERY Old Bruh...

    REAL TALK, if You and X WON'T REED and ABSORB Information and Posts as They're PRESENTED to You, Please STOP Coming @ REED w/This Type of Bullshit...This Ain't SENSITIVITY, it's Some SICK AND TIRED Type of Shit...Period...

    There's a GIVE and TAKE to Boxing Debates...Regarding GGG, REED's Been Saying the SAME Fucking Shit to YOU and X for Nearly 5 Fucking Years Now...

    8 pounds bro. That's unheard of. You're asking way too much from GGG

    Yes, Prominent Fighters DUCKED Him Early, But ALL REED's Saying is There were BEATABLE Guys @ a Higher Weight Class, That Golovkin COULD Have Manipulated into Favorable Catchweights, During the Time Canelo SHAMELESSLY Ducked Him as Well...

    Though Lacking Lineage, GGG was the Recognized "Middleweight Champion of the World" Already...So Even If he Moved Up and LOST to a Super Middle, That Designation WOULDN'T Have Changed...And Had He WON a Super Middle Title, He Could've Relinquished @ ANY Time OR, Who Knows, Team Canelo May Have Tried to Recreate Some Dual Title Leonard-Lalonde Type of Scenario...

    Regardless, @ NO Point Was REED Saying or Insinuating GGG Eschew a Canelo Fight Altogether...Not Sure HOW, WHEN or WHY You and Terp Made and Continue to Make that ASSumption...REED Was Only Speaking on What GGG Could Do AS he Waited on Canelo, Not INSTEAD of Facing Canelo...

    GGG Demanded a Catchweight of '64 for Ward...Jack or DeGale Would've DEFINITELY Acquiesced to that Back Then...They had NO Money Fights Back Then, NO Leverage Whatsoever...

    What's Sad is, REED Pointed This Out Probably 3-5 DIFFERENT Times Over the Last 4-5 Years, Yet Neil and Terp Act as if They DON'T Know This EVERYfuckingTIME REED Brings it Up...

    If REED's "Sensitive", he's Sensitive to OVERT Ignorance and a Lack of BASIC Acknowledgement...

    froch is another guy who didnt want it with golovkin. that wouldve been a fight worth going to 168 for.

    i agree, we been over this. and the time line of things shows that badou jack was only* a possible foe instead of shitty wade, i guess. thats the only time it was even feasible. after jack had won a title via split decision against groves.

    you can keep talkin about this as if winning a title (at a catchweight, no less) vs badou jack is some legacy enhancer. its pretty amusing.

    Im sure the historians would look back at that moment as some sort of important feat in golovkins career. ive also pointed out that jack was a guy who could barely make 168, so i dont buy the catchweight thing.

    You're SELECTIVELY Amused Neil...

    In MOST Instances (Excluding Heavyweights), Fighters Who've Won Titles in 2 Weight Classes are Thought MORE Highly of Than Those Who Won Just 1 Title...And Those Who've Won Titles in 3 Weight Classes are Typically Thought MORE Highly of Than Those Who Won 2 Titles...Rinse-Repeat Likewise for 4, 5, 6, etc., Weight World Champions...

    It's Not as if You DON'T Know This Already, You Just CONVENIENTLY ACT as if You Don't, to Suit This Particular Argument...

    As for Jack, Triple G was THE ONLY Money Option for Him Back Then...If You REALLY Think He Wouldn't Have @ Least TRIED to Cut to '64 to Get a Career High Payday Against a SMALLER Man, You're LYING to Yourself...

    Again...

    Jack got like three quarters of a mill vs degale around that time. How much more was he gonna get for golovkin?

    He was tight at the weight too. Its pretty flimsy if this is the best example of golovkin cherry picking opponents. HBO should've vetoed and found a more credible middleweight than scrubby wade and this woulda been a non issue

    Golovkin looks like a career middleweight

    If I ever run into jack I'll ask him if he'd have jumped at a catch weight at that time

    First off REED, I never defended Golov's resume on this thread. I took exception to the statement you made that Golov's entire career has been based around "What would Canelo do?" Which was an IDIOTIC, hating statement considering prior to 2015, the idea of the two even facing eachother wasn't even considered.

    Golov's had a middleweight belt 1-2 years before Canelo was ever shown on US television!

    So explain how in the FUCK his career has been based around Canelo?

    I think Golovkin has far-and-away the weakest resume of the long-reigning middleweight champs, and I don't consider him in the same class as Monzon, Hagler, and Hopkins.

    I'm not even particularly a Golovkin fan, I simply come to defend him when you post because you're hating of him is far from objective.

    As for STAFFORD, I'm not gonna flatter myself to think I'm important enough to make him disappear.

    Don't act NEW to the forum, Sly has ALWAAAAAAYYYSSSSSS gone on long posting hiatuses, even going back to the days that he and I were cool.

    That's his "thing" - he posts non-stop for months, or even a few years, then disappears for months, or even years.

    If that's always been his M-O, then how am I to blame?

    Let's not get started on childish accusations, you're the one who's been in petty, bitch arguments at some point with virtually everyone on the forum.

    In almost 20 years, I've hardly ever beefed with anyone on Fightbeat.

    You're the one who seems to crave drama, and confrontation. And why? Because you're fuckin SENSITIVE and take every "call out" as a personal slight against you as a human being. Now THAT'S weak shit.
