He's older, finished growing a few years ago. He had a late start in pro boxing and then his career was delayed by the despicable Universum.
If he was a pro when he won the world amateur championship at light welterweight, he would have then moved from 140 through 147 to 154 up to 160.
Its funny how context is always lost on people. But he won the world championships at 152 not 141. 141 he won the junior world championships.
2000, GGG is fighting at 141lb
2002, GGG is fight at 152lb
2004, GGG is fighting in the olympics at 165lb
That puts him on par with most young fighter who move up through divisions, age wise.
Fighters rarely move up divisions in their mid 30's.
Floyd maxed out at 154 when he was 29 vs Oscar.
GGG is also not a big middleweight, he has already filled out, any higher divisions he is going to start being at a serious size and reach disadvantage.
Most fighters that move up, only move up to the point where all of that evens out. Floyd was about average height and build for a WW, GGG is about average height and build for a MW.
Sounds just like Floyd haters vs fans right? Twilight Zone in this mother****er.
Yea, it's exactly like the Floyd haters except if I had to guess the guys that defended Floyd all those years are now the ones all over Golovkins nuts. It's fuking hilarious.
Come on Golovtards,

Idiot.. ever heard of hopekins defence record.. that's right ... GGG wants to break that
"Please, please, please move up so maybe you will lose Golovkin" - NSB haters
The thing that these guys that make endless threads disparaging Golovkin dont realize is they are his biggest fans. They cant stop talking about him. Its much like all the Cowboy haters out there. The Cowboys havent really been relevant in 20 years yet there is a large base out there that cant stop talking about them. This shiet is funny as hell to me.
Fear not though, he will lose soon. Father time is undefeated and he will catch up to Golovkin sooner rather than later. Provided he gets the right fights I dont see him making it to 40-0. He will get the unification I think but it will take a while. He may be all over 36-37 by the time he has 4 more fights.

I always thought GGG delayed turning pro until the likes of Martinez got old.
