How may of those top tenners were considered elite ?
The lineal champ isn't a true MW his best bet is to vacate but outside of that who's he really fought?
Froch was done GGG would have bitten off more than he can chew has he even competed against a SMW ? Beating the likes of Murray ,Macklin,Stevenson,Lemiuex ,or even Rubio is not Froch ..
Elite guys duck him, like Froch, Canelos, Cotto, Martinez. So Froch was done despite being runaway #1 at SMW and p4p ranked everywhere (unlike when he fought Ward) yet more than he can chew despite Frochs "swerve him if we can, punches like a mule, dangerous fight"
Agree with Atlas, their just tailoring GGG to become the next big thing in boxing, lining him up with these ok fighters so he looks impressive.. Not sold on this GGG hype job just yet.
He's fought 7 ring top tenners in 3 years, and has lineal champ petrified. They all look like stiffs with Ggg. Froch didn't wanna risk looking like a stiff lol

No, he was better than the IBF champ, and the WBA and WBC champs knew he was better and would rather not get hurt
spin it however you want. doesn't change the facts
Golovkin was handed the WBA belt, will be handed the WBC belt, and was basically handed the IBF belt.
If you're impressed by that, you must not be much of a fight fan

I think the real problem Atlas has it that GGG isn't American and he can't see any faults in his style.
Atlas likes breaking fighters down and analyzing their strengths and weaknesses. But he can't see any in GGG, he can't tell you what it's going to take to beat him. He just waiting for one fighter to show a ***** in the armor so he can rant and say I told you so.
Being kingpin by default is nowhere near as impressive as you want to make it out to be. When he gets handed another vacant belt, let's see you trumpet that as some major accomplishment.
lol you are one dumb bast@rd
He's not just handed them, he's got champs forfeiting. Hey I know he's not technically The Champ. Some 155er is. That needs fixing, whether they vacate in disgrace, or get peeled off the canvas

And who the fck is Ward facing! lmao!
2 journeymen back to back! When's the last time he beat anyone relevant? 4 years?
:lol1: Ward has more relevant wins than Little G...he's also far more accomplished!!....he'd also most likely shut Little G out H2H....so I can see why you're hurting
All that makes him is a beltholder. Until he beats someone worth anything, he's the definition of what it is to be a paper champion. If his fans are fine with him simply being handed every belt, so be it.

1. He has 2 belts, soon 3
2. 7 Ring top 10 wins, others 2 max
3. Huge favorite over anyone at MW

How can Golovkin be the 160 kingpin without ever actually fighting anyone?
No one becomes a weight class kingpin by default; you actually have to fight. ...
When the opposition would rather vacate belts than fight you, yo DO became a kingpin by default.

No one becomes a weight class kingpin by default; you actually have to fight. Coming from a wannabe promoter, I'd figure you to be sharper than so foolish a statement.
