    Lists are usually filled with names a person is/was a fan off.
    People rate Joe Louis very high even though his resume is shlt.

      Not much to hate on with GGG as an all-time MW, but people can try I suppose.

        This guy was gifted belts and has a bunch of title defenses of a baby belt like Erislandy Lara so why aren't we talking about how great Lara was with his 9 defenses ?. People need to stop this nonsense. The core of his career was to ride Clenelo jock to paydays and hustle Mexicans and Unable Suckerchez. That's his career in a bottle.

          His resume is weak. He didn't beat anyone who the next guy couldn't beat.
          He waited too long to become a pro
          He then didn't keep his ''anyone from 154-168'' promise.
          H2H, Hopkins would mindfck GGG.

          Not a fan of either guy (I absolutely hated Hops ''style'')
          GGG is a tough guy, can take a good shot, has an ATG jab, but his resume.....not at all impressive.

              - - Now is this Poopsy flying out the ring to end up bawlin'/squallin' like a baby vs the first Allen fight, or flying out the ring to end up bawlin'/squallin' like a baby in his last fight vs Just Another Joe Smith Jr?

              And what of the in between fights with Calzaghe, Roy rematch, and Dawson with similar bawlin'/squallin' results?

              Man, they just don't bawlin'/squallin' babies like that any more

                OK I disagree with you.

                  Me too i think GGG walks right through Hopkins. Hopkins was hurt by Segundo Mercado and Robert Allen. Hopkins actually fought better at 168 and 175.

                    I'm not the biggest B-Hop fan only cause of a few particular fights he did were to dirty and boring, but I'll give this to B-Hop, I'd also give B-Hop and edge to school him a bit, very interesting match up

                      Who was ducked more? GGG. Why? He’s the better of the two. Case closed.
