Did GGG Have 1 of the Greatest Careers a Fighter Can Wish For?

Maybe not of the greatest careers, but great enough. I don't get why some criticize him so much, he did enough fights, enough good fights, and behaved with dignity even when Canelo I and II were at the top of the corruption. He practically had one real loss when he was old.Comment

He was the best fighter in his generation. There was a reason Cotto wanted no part of him at 160, he wanted a catchweight, lol.
Imagine 30 old GGG fighting 35 old Canelo. It wouldn`t be competitive, lol.

He made out pretty well considering his career didn't effectively get any wheels til he was 30. His late start in the pro ranks due to his long ammy career then all the bullchit with Universum could easily have meant his career sank like a stone, but a combination of HBOs last ditch effort to build themselves a star on a shoestring budget and Gennadys formidable abilities and KO power resulted in an enviable if not superstellar careerComment

if i had a dream of a fighter's career. i would rather have GGG's career over almost anybody's.
dude struggled a bit to get fights but kept grinding against guys who never hurt him. He KOed 9/10 guys.
Then at the absolute end of his career, he got to fight the draw of boxing 3 times. netting 100 million dollars for the Canelo trilogy alone. He signed a very lucrative deal with DAZN where they even let him fight complete bums on DAZN for 15 million lol.
In his entire career he prob banked around $200 Million. He was also sponsored by Jordan and APPLE.
He has only lost to 1 guy when he was already over 40 to Canelo. The other 2 fights, most people saw him win.
There is 0 film of being knocked off his feet in his entire career. He has never been stopped.
Walked away with hundreds of millions, middleweight title defense legacy, all his faculties in tact and a national hero. His legacy will be a part of Kazak history.
his career started very bleak and disregarded and ended as one of the greatest successes in boxing history.
GGG is a first ballot hall of fame enshrine. He was great.Comment

Financially it was definitely a successful career. People like to shlt on his resume but it was (and still is kind of a weak division at this time). He didn't get the big fights cause he didn't have the right promoter or money behind him but he fought who he could. Once on HBO his career took off.
He collected belts and almost unified but Saunders knew he had no chance so he couldnt be undisputed. Carnela ducked him til he looked like old against brook and jacobs.
Andre ward blatantly ducked him.
And cashed out in the two rematches with carnela and got monies from dazn burying themselves.
So start CRYING and show me those tears!Comment
