Gennady Golovkin vs. Brandon Adams - June 8, 2019?

[Perseus]

Wondering if making 160 lbs limit is harder for GGG at age of 37 than before. I think it is

He’s always been a natural MW. Usually walks around 170..

My understanding is GGG lives the life of an athlete.
He stays in shape 365 days a year not just when he is in training camp which means he always near his fighting weight.

Most Olympians do. It’s a very good thing. Like Wlad.

[lazboy]

Very disappointed as a golovkin fan. I’ve never heard of this person. It seems they are trying to prolong Golovkins career but I would prefer quality over quantity.

[apollo creed]

Yeah 37 y/o GGG should fight Godzilla after 7-8 months of layoff. Last fight with Canelo was very tough. GGG needs to have at least one soft fight to get in that top shape.

There's plenty of names they could have picked, Should have just foughtKamil Szeremeta

the problem is that just week later, Głowacki will face Briedis in Riga, Szeremeta and Głowacki have the same trainer. Also, trainer Fiodor Łapin wants Szeremeta to fight 1-2 times more vs B level opponents rather than moving from C level to A level fights. Szeremeta was also offered to fight Charlo.

He has no time for the soft fights.

Nobody knows better than GGG how much time he has left.

[SenorPipino]

Golovkin will continue to take only soft fights so as not to jeopardize a cash out third fight against Canelo.

It could happen. Andrade for the wbo is one of them.

DAZN aren't going to take stupid risks on their major investments, nor should they. They only need to start recouping and they will - soon enough.

GGG having been stripped of his belts is also under no obligation apart from satisfying his contract with his paymasters, DAZN. You can bet he feels he owes the sport nothing after the way it treated him. Controversial decisions and moral victories don't pay bills.

Besides it's sure to sell out as GGG remains one of the most exciting boxers in the sport. He could probably fight anyone right now and still sell out.

Some may say they won't watch, but we fans know we will. There's no such thing as a boring GGG fight, at least not for me. Not yet, or for the near future I hope. Who knows?

Corrupt judges broke his dreams of becoming an undisputed champ and breaking Bernard's record. So now it is just about making money for him. If DAZN allows soft opponents, he will fight them.

No, Andrade is Canelo's opponent in September to unify the middleweight title.

I don't consider Andrade a soft touch. Not the best but capable.

[closer]

What a crap fight, but expected this from this version of GGG

[Paci]

Adams got some draw with winning the latest contender and well, I do give him cred for fight a guy how smack around a game Will Monroe how did beat Adams back on Espn.

But GGG got this, then a gain I give cred to Adams for taking the fight, but he got like 100-1 to win it. Also it fells like a safebet before moving on to a rematch against Canelo or maybe Andrade how holds the WBO-strap. Or is Andrade with PBC or something? Have no clue.

[brilo33]

disappointing fight adams is of the back off fighting Brunson, i see dennis hogan do a job on brunson

[bmilligan]

The last time I heard or watched Brandon Adams was when he was in ESPN;s Boxcino tourney. He fought in both the JMW and MW tourneys and lost both.

Club level fighter with alot of TV time...

No discredit to him, good competitor.. just not ANYWHERE close to MW contender.

NO ONE will bother watch this.

[apollo creed]

The problem is I see no schedule on boxrec about this fight. Maybe it's just a rumour.

They’reprobably Just finalising a few bits.

[caldo2025]

Typically when these dual main events consisting of same weight division are scheduled, it’s an attempt to Juice the prospects of the winners fighting each other. GGG vs Andrade would be a great fight but all wrong for GGG. I hope this doesn’t happen as a GGG fan because Andrade is nasty slick and primed. Could be an embarrassing proposal.

Andrade would have the same faith of Monroe Jr if he fights GGG. Maybe BJS in a tip top shape would pose problems to GGG.

[ValMar]

I am tired of Canelo vs. GGG endless story.
I would like to see these opponents for GGG : Charlo, Dervi, Andrade, BJS (and all LMW champions if they decide to move up, all of them are the same size or bigger than GGG).

It doesn't matter whether we want to see it or not - barring a miracle it's going to happen. Far, far too much money riding on it.

GGG is expected to walk through his opponent without too much trouble and Canelo is fighting in his back yard once more.

To win at the T Mobile, Las Vegas, Danny will need to stop Canelo or win by an even bigger margin than GGG did first fight. A huge ask for Jacobs who will need the performance of his career to take Alvarez apart on May 5th.

You can bet the Canelo cartel have the odds calculated down to the hundredth percentile point. This includes the opponent, the date, the venue, the referee, the judges and plenty more we will never know.

Business as usual in Sin City.

Or Canelo might just pound out Jacobs because he's better.

He usually is, with or without the help of some fantasy cartel.

I think that Canelo is really better than Jacobs. I think that Canelo will have help by "cartel" too. It will be very difficult for Jacobs to win, very, very difficult..............
