Yeah but I'm trying. I got top 10 at least.
I don't know man, top twenty. Theirs always next year dude, that's what they keep telling me in regards to poster of the year. Try to shadow Kigali's work, I think you could take tips from TheNotoriousOne, Lou Cipher and Daggum too. That would be my advice to you.
If I had the patience I would put a .gif here of Cottos older brother rocking canelo and almost taking him out. He passed that test, but barely. Granted it was earlier in his career, but that Cotto was a bloated out of shape 135 pounder fighting at 147. Still the cleanest Ive seen canelo hit so far though.
Damn, I'm not fan of Canelo but in that fight he was like 19 years old.
Salvador Sanchez down in a fight vs a bum when he was like 20 years old and then he had a granite chin, one of the best in boxing history.
As much as I hate to say it, probably Mayweather. He has/had the perfect style to defeat somebody the caliber of Golovkin - too quick, too much footwork, doesn't remain stationary (which GGG isn't used to encountering), is the best/smartest counterpuncher in the game, etc. I could see him managing to easily outpoint GGG while surviving any major damage, even at the age of 40.
This tells me two things:
1. You haven't watched a lot of Canelo's fights
2. You voted Trump
Nearly got KOed by the bum Cotto lol.
Trump >>>>>>>>>>>>>>
It would have to be someone who is durable and tough someone who can dig through the trenches and give as good as they can take can a Charlo brother or Andrade like the first few comments really, realistically do that?
You're not going to outbox GGG, you're not going to avoid him for 12 rounds so the sooner people accept that the better If he was going to be outclassed and chasing a fighter for several rounds It would have already happened by now!
There is a reason why slickster like Martinez in his prime didn't want to fight him, he understood that this guy knew how to deal with a runner he had the tools and ability to give that runner as little distance as possible to always put him in the way of a punch and to force him to expend so much stamina to maintain that type of fight.
Eubank Jr would have a shot If his chin is as good as I think it is, James DeGale would have a shot because I believe he has a great chin but maybe lacking a bit of quality work to struggle someone like Golovkin.
The person who has the real best chance of beating him is father time and maybe a bit of luck.
At 160 I think either Jacobs or Canelo would have the best chance. I would favor GGG by a large amount. Ward, Stevenson and Kovalev from the light heavyweights would have the best chance to beat him. From 154 I'd only give Andrade a small chance to beat him.
When you talk 154-168, no one would be the favorite to beat GGG, but a few fighters have a chance:
Decent chance (10-20%): Zurdo Ramirez, James DeGale
Small Chance (5-10%): Demetrius Andrade, Canelo, Danny Jacobs
Are you genuinely trying to justify Canelo and Jacobs have a remote chance against ggg ?

Who can take the punishment for 12 rounds? Ward, Kovalev, Stevenson.... I don't see anyone at 154,160, or even 168 except maybe Zurdo because he's huge
This. I don't see Zurdo standing up to GGG for 12 rounds, I'd prefer to see Canelo Vs Jr. Winner against Zurdo Mexican super fight I've no desire for mismatches, I genuinely don't see anyone at 168 beating GGG.
A Ward vs GGG catchweight around 170-172 I feel is the logical option to offset the natural attributes of Ward to create an even fair fight between the two which would provide GGG with a legitimate challenge.
Ain't no one south of 175 beating him.
