Breadman on this fight:
I don’t get the hate of GGG’s opponent either. The fans and media somehow forget that Canelo tested positive and was suspended. GGG fought Kell Brook after and opponent pulled out. I thought it was great for boxing that a top 10 p4p type of guy moved up and challenged the middleweight monster. Brook filled in when another opponent pulled out if I’m not mistaken it was Chris Eubank. Then GGG fights his biggest perceived threat in Daniel Jacobs. In his very next fight he fights his other biggest threat in Canelo Alvarez. So he’s getting ready for the rematch and Alvarez is not available because of a testing issue…
The fans now claim he’s ducking Sergiy Derevyanchenko and Demetrius Andrade because he doesn’t fill them in on short notice. It’s insane. No one in boxing’s last 3 opponents have been top 20 p4p type of guys. Andrade and Deverenchenko are really tough fights, no A list fighter would re gear and fight someone of that caliber on short notice. It’s counter productive. Spike O Sullivan was a solid pick. He just had a good victory vs Antione Douglas. The Mungai kid is not as bad as he was made out to be. They couldn’t make those fights. So Team GGG put their promoter’s hat to work and picked a California based fighter, of Armenian descent. There happens to be a large Armenian population in southern California and everyone gets mad. GGG has been asking to face Billy Joe Saunders for over a year now, and Saunders wasn’t ready. Now that GGG has slipped, I hear he’s ducking Saunders too. I get accused of being a racist because Canelo test positive for PEDs. So I guess what I will be called a GGG lover because I have no problem with his pick. It’s a business and the finances of this fight had to be redirected because of Canelo’s screw up. GGG needed to stay active. There may be a direct correlation with his last performances and inactivity. He was indestructible when he was fighting 3 and 4 times a year. So he didn’t want to be off 8 months.
Tell me the difference in Liam Smith fighting Canelo and Vanes Martirosyan fighting GGG. I actually think Vanes would beat Liam Smith. Now mark this down. Vanes will win some rounds and land some nice right hands vs GGG. And the world will say wow, GGG is no good anymore. That’s just how the new critic works. This fight is a suitable replacement given the circumstances. I’ve seen much worse. This situation is not GGG’s fault, he’s been fighting the best “available” opponent for his last 3 fights.
