First it was pac, and then Matthysse, and now it's Gennady Golovkin's turn

Pac, Matthysse, GGG... You are comparing oranges with apples... The train is derailed for every fighter who fights consistently tough opponents: Ali, Joe Louis, Leonard, Duran, Hearns...These guys that you've mentioned...their trains were never derailed. The merely had bumps in the road.

Mate. Golovkin got Steven in a body bag already. I know Golovkin has this and it is the hype that is getting to you. I think you're jealous of Golovkin because how fast he is becoming a star. Don't worry man, one by one, Golovkin will reach to the top that will turn your little grapes sour.I've heard the same thing from thousands of fans like you...thinking that you're sounding confident and not one of you have turned out to be right, not one. I always hope that guys like GG pan out. I don't like it when fans, and fans like you say, "GG got Steven in a body bag", lmao. Foh. When it happens, it happens. He's 31 and ain't fought nobody yet, and he's getting big time props from bandwagon fans at that.

It will remain only a wishful thinking (for some)... GGG is a real deal. Noone at 160lbs beats him.

We cant forget GGG is like 30 yrs old too, he doesnt have a whole lot of time but i think hes more legit than lucas. GGG needs to step up his opponents tho, who the fuk is curtis stevens really

We have to separate the adulation of the fanboys from the fighter. I think GGG has tremendous potential. I became a "believer" in his potential (not hype) in his KO of Macklin. GGG still has much to do to prove himself to be the real deal and we will learn a lot in the Stevens fight. Does GGG have a top shelf chin? Can he slip punches if he wants to / needs to? Is he able to land and impose himself on Stevens. If he takes care of Stevens the way he took care of Macklin then ... we may very well have the NEXT BIG THING. But, until then we don't know.This is a good post. The man is receiving superman props, and he's done nothing. All he has to do is prove himself against a tough guy, and I'm sold. His punching power has bandwagon fans overrating him to no end, and when you look at who he has beaten, his bandwagon fans try to justify his wins.

What does this even mean? I'll tell you what. When you find out what "THIS" means, let me know, and we can move on.

Nah, they along with you are saying that he is going to beat Stevens ass just like they said that Matthysse would beat Danny's ass and look what happened. I'm rooting for Stevens to beat your boys ass! We have to separate the adulation of the fanboys from the fighter. I think GGG has tremendous potential.

Yeah, and you are ranked lower than me...even in your world. What does this even mean? Who should GGG fight? And consider whether the names you come up with even will fight him. Probably not. I'm not even sure what you're accusing me of - I don't think GGG is P4P #1 or anything, but I recognize his talent and am waiting for it to be showcased against the big names. Let me ask you a question: what's your opinion of Broner?

Wow this is the dumbest quote in the world. You are one of the most genuinely terrible posters on here.Yeah, and you are ranked lower than me...even in your world. Now you can stay pissed that Matthysse lost, and jump on GG's bandwagon, but his turn is coming next.

These kids will never learn. They hate the guy so much that they dont even realize that they are are witnessing. Floyd fighting live. My grandkids are going to wish they could see him live in the ring. He is the best fighter of our time and its not even close. Not Hopkins, Manny, Oscar. None of them are on Floyds level.

i guess i didn't even read your full thread title, ducketts. manny pacquiao is a hype job? manny pacquiao? you have reached new levels, man. manny pacquiao is one of the greatest fighters ever. you've heard the term "all time great?" manny will be considered an all time great by any expert on boxing.Look, I'm talking about Pac's bandwagon, and Matthysse being a hpe job. Cut it out. That amateurish outlook that you're used to giving won't work here. No, Pac won't be considered an atg. He's clearly not an atg. Pac is a great fighter, but they have a class for him. Great. Floyd is an atg, and Duran is a legend. Floyd is closer to legend than Manny will ever be to atg status.

Garcia/Matts was two top guys fighting for the 140lb throne, while GGG/Stevens is more like a showcase. I think calling GGG a hype job if he loses to Stevens would be deserved.

You're not very bright. You're saying GGG simply needs to show you he's the real deal, and that he could prove you wrong, but you want him to get knocked out? I'd imagine you probably also wanted Macklin to knock him out or beat him? It's funny, he'll keep beating the opponents you want to expose him and you'll still say he's hype. GGG needs to fight better competition but he's already called out everyone from 154-168. The big fights hopefully will start to come, but it's only a matter of time. Macklin was a solid fighter and has been in with good competition, and he found out the hard way that GGG is the real deal.When GG fights someone with a pulse, you make sure that you let me know. Time is not on GG's side patna. I'm tired of hearing guys like you who aren't bright at all continually ride this guys bandwagon as if he's great, and he hasn't even faced a B level guy his size and in his own division. What's funny is that you say "he'll keep beating", when he hasn't been beating opponents that I want to see him fight. GG isn't the real deal until he proves that he's the real deal.

I picked everyone to beat Matthysse, and yes Matthysse turned out to be a hype job. No boxing skills at all. Wow this is the dumbest quote in the world. You are one of the most genuinely terrible posters on here.

Pac did prove himself, but he was never on Floyd's level. Floyd is a clear level above everyone today, and many don't think, and still don't think that he is because they don't like him. Now they know. Hard work and dedication. GG has never even been in a fight with a top guy who will hit him back. That's all we want to see. I just don't see it in GG. He could prove me wrong, but I don't see it. I agree about Floyd. He's a once in a lifetime fighter and, at least for me, rates above anyone else of his era clearly, including Pac. I'm not sure about Golovkin though. I think GGG could surpass Floyd, especially if Floyd moves up and dares to face him. He's the one guy I think has the skills and power to dominate Floyd and surpass him as an ATG.

You all literally gave Danny no chance, and you all are giving Stevens no chance. I hope Stevens knocks Golovkins head off. Maidana is next. Broner is going to beat his ass too.

pac is not hype and will probably be ranked higher in the end then floyd because of his resume losses dont mean anything

He fought Marquez at the same weight Manny did and Floyd was a pound less than Manny . He fought Hatton both weighing 152 on the night of the fight . Cotto was 154 for Floyd and 145 for Manny . Oscar was 154 for Floyd and 147 for Manny . Guerrero was mandatory , unbeaten for 7 years and had beat a WW world champion . Ortiz was 160 fight night . Hatton Oscar and Mosley were all more worn fighting Manny than they were for Floyd . I think you need to learn what boxing is all about and how to read the fine print . nice job at twisting it stan marquez was in piss poor condition vs floyd, had no fitness trainer or anything hatton was a good 140 fighter, he had almost been k0d at 147 before, his shoe lace saved him, pac fought hatton at his best weight while hatton had the best trainer in the world (said so himself by hatton) cotto was at his prime and best vs manny, he said he was in his best condition ever, vs floyd, cotto was worn and did not have the right discipline anymore, hence him fighting at 154 manny came up from 135 to fight oscar, everyone had oscar as winning, oscar tried to cherry pick manny and it backfired, mayweather sneaked a split decision while manny retired his ss mosley, 2 year lay off vs floyd, fully 100 percent vs manny, floyd almost got knocked out, while manny had mosley begging to quit guerrero, not even you believe that, a b class fighter who was a cherry pick, he has defeated nobody decent at 147, ortiz is the same, blatant cherry picks to duck manny I will embarrass you again some other day, sorry, I know when you begged me via pm to not humiliate you anymore, I said I would not, but this was too easy, I do not like lairs like you take it easy kid, or I will be back to tax your ass tomorrow
