GGG has the best resume of all top fighters since his US debut. Proof inside.

Very interesting article from boxing247 about GGG and other top fighters in current boxers and their opposition: https://www.boxing247.com/boxing-news/believe-since-golovkin-american Since making his American debut on 1st September 2012 GGG has beaten more top 10 contenders than any other active professional boxer in the sport. More impressively still, Golovkin has barely been tested in any of these fights and none of these foes have heard the final bell. Clearly, Gennady has “earned his shot.” However, a convincing victory over pay per view TV star and Lineal champion, “Canelo”, would undoubtedly go some way to further silencing his detractors. Below is a list of ten of the most talented fighters in boxing today, ranked by the number of different top 10 opponents (as rated by the Transnational Boxing Rankings at the time that each particular fight happened) they have beaten since September 2012. (1) Gennady Golovkin – 6 160lbs: Lemieux #4, Murray #4, Geale #5, Macklin #6, Proksa #9. 154lbs: Rosado #10 (2) Saul Alvarez – 5 147lbs: Khan #3, Lopez #8. 154lbs: Lara #1, Trout #2. 160lbs: Cotto – Lineal Champion (3) Sergey Kovalev – 4 175lbs: Pascal #3 (x2), Hopkins #1, Cleverly #5, Campillo #3 (4) Roman Gonzalez – 4 112lbs: Arroyo #7, Viloria #4, Sosa #5, Yaegashi – Lineal champion (5) Terence Crawford – 4 135lbs: Burns #3, Gamboa #7, Beltran #2. 140lbs: Dulorme #9 (6) Timothy Bradley – 3 140lbs: Vargas #7. 147lbs: Rios #10, Marquez #2 (7) Juan Francisco Estrada – 3 112lbs: Viloria #1, Melindo #8, Segura #6 (8) Guillermo Rigondeaux – 2 118lbs: Agbeko # 6. 122lbs: Donaire – Lineal Champion (9) Andre Ward – 1 168lbs: Rodriguez #6 (10) Kell Brook – 1 147lbs: Porter #6 *The world rankings of the four major organisations (IBF, WBO, WBC, WBA) do not accurately reflect who the best boxers in each weight division are. Case in point: arguably the five best heavyweights in the world – Klitschko, Wilder, Ortiz, Fury and Povetkin – do not feature in the IBF heavyweight top 10. Therefore the Transnational Boxing Rankings have been referred to in this article. Some weird haters (and Canelo) keep claiming that GGG has a bad resume and there you have it. He actually has the best resume of all active fighters. Now dont even start arguing that Canelo knocking out old and small Cotto or chinny Khan is more impressive than GGG stopping Lemieux and Murray. Also you can check out the latest Fight Game with Jim Lampley, he has GGG on #1 P4P now.

Yeah, except EVERYONE ELSE ON THE LIST HAS MANAGED TO FIGHT AT LEAST ONE GUY WHO IS SURE TO BE IN THE HOF. Everyone except Golovkin. You're welcome. Which list are you talking about? Not the p4p list, many guys have no Hof wins. And as you saw, Froch who's Hof for his quality resume has zero Hof wins

He fought Garcia on 3/15. The rankings were released on 3/11. Why are you in such denial? It's not that serious bruh. :lol1: Besides, Dierry Jean and Zab Judah shouldn't have been ranked above him in the first place. Whoa my bad, was seeing 3/18. It's understandable, the guy was unranked a month earlier, and was 2-2 lately, convincing losses and wins over noncontenders.

Cut all the fancy, dishonest, sideways means of looking at it and just look at the value of the opponents. You're creating smoke and mirrors to hide what is a simple, honest truth. This is NOT an argument GGG fans should be pursuing, it makes you guys look like you're intentionally dumbing yourselves down. There's such better ways to argue the GGG vs Canelo angle, why pick this loser of an argument?? Man, you totally lost your mind. I don't think GGG has the best resume. But as we said thousands times, and even Ward said, it's not his fault. MW's ran away from him since he became a pro. People vacated in order not to fight him. Even now when he's popular. BJS -> Not ready, need 12-18 months and right money. Tells Eubank jr that GGG would beat both in the same night. Jacobs -> Need 5 millions. Canelo -> Vacated MW belt. Cotto -> Vacated MW belt. Let's not forget all the guys that ducked him prior to 2015. So what's the ****ing point? If Sergio Martinez himself tells you: GGG is off the charts. What does it mean for you? Everyone can see it... but no, let's pretend he's being ducked because... because crap. THEY MW'S ARE SCARED.

Lol Canastota. How many active fighters from 154-200 are Hof bound right now? Froch has a great resume, how many of his wins are Hof bound, dumbfcuk? who has GGG beat that would be considered elite, regardless of weight division...not necessarily p4p top ten.....but elite.....top 3 in the division he is in or above or below...you know the answer. but they ducking doe...translation: he has work to do before he is a hall of famer or legitmately considered top 3 p4p....worst resume of all time i've ever seen for that kinda praise

Too easy. Sanctioning bodies rank who they rank and even the Transnational boards which have earned some respect, are affected somewhat by how the sanctioning bodies do things. The easiest way to debunk this theory- because that's what it is, a theory- is to ask yourself one question. Out of that list of "ranked" fighters Golovkin has fought, which of them are considered "elite". Which of 5 or 6 in that list are headed to Canastota? Answer THOSE questions and you will understand what kind of resume Golovkin has. the answer....none..all you have to do his watch his opponents and who they fought and their skills. some are decent fighters. IMO lemmie is the best he has fought so far but he is no world beater and lost to two 2nd/3rd tier guys. the can man is the only fighter in history to have never beat an elite opponent and be considered top 3 p4p this man is making history "any can, can get it!!!!" ameriCANS, afriCANS, MexiCANS....any can, can get it!!!"

It's hard for GGG haters to bad mouth his undefeated record or his incredible percentage of wins by KO. That only leaves them one thing to trash him with and that's to say he never fights anybody but bums. This article clearly shows that his opposition is very good. yea GGG is the only fighter to have a high ko ratio bwahahahahahaha....half of the people he knocked out were knocked out before he fought them every fighters ko % drops when they regularly fight good competition happened to hearns, julian jackson, pacquaio, etc. he doesnt fight all bums...he fights 2 bums for every decent opponent. example...he fought lemieux in october but he just fought no name Dominic Wade right after and no name Monroe before...these dudes are prospects not contenders.

lol at all of the childish responses loling at an objective article. golovkin has fought more top 10 comp than any active fighter in that time period. that's an objective reality. posting a little emoji with zero content is the donald trump equivalent of an argument. he thinks it's great, and so do the lowest common denominator :lol1: if he had the best resume there wouldnt be so many people laughing about it.....KMSL The can man having the best resume since his US DEBUT....

There's no way Lemiux, Macklin, and Murray are in the top 5 what bs they were all in the top 5. martin murray could have easily been champion when he fought golovkin. most ringsiders thought he beat martinez pretty handily. you're more than welcome to watch the fight for us and score it, and talk about why you scored each round. pretty sure dan geale was in the top 5 as well. i don't think golovkin has the "best resume since '10," but you should be able to be objective and say that, yes, he's foguht more top 10 competition than any active fighter since 2010. golovkin has either beaten or been blatantly ducked virtually every top MW of the last 3-4 years. he's arguably the most dominant fighter in boxing. he's in the top 5 of any decent p4p list.
