    100% agree
    No one ducked GGG
    1st Nelo was ''close''. If a person was to analyze the fight objectively, they will see GGG never throwing combos or body shots and his right hand rendered useless.
    Jabjabjabjabjab occasional left hook.
    When Nelo had his back on the ropes, GGG couldn't land anything.......



    2 and 3 were clear W's for Nelo.


    By this time, GGGroupies were crying about GGG's ''advanced age'' .........

    Remove Nelo's name and there's nothing.
    People would rightfully shlt on Nelo if he had GGG's resume
    And no would want to hear ''he was ducked''.

      ggg was good but not amazing against high level opposition

      A borderline great

      while Alvarez is in the shallow end of great

        Besides his fights with Nelo, his MW ''run'' will be mentioned.
        If anyone needs to piss themselves laughing, just look at those names !
        JCC jr could have had the same run
        Not one legit W.

            the 2nd Alvarez fight changed ggg

            he would lose to a Ukrainian shortly thereafter

            I think the fire was gone

            He was out of the big leagues after two attempts against Alvarez without a W

              1 eyed Shortychenko got robbed

              I think GGG's handlers kept him at MW for a very good reason
              There was danger north of MW and TeamGGG were unsure.

                  Prime GGG was about 3 years before the Canelo fight. His physical peak was around 2013-2014

                  Canelo had to rob a faded version to get a draw and then feared him so much he got caught juicing for the rescheduled rematch.

                  That's all you need to know

                      ggg the next best student from the Soviet School of Boxing

                      but ggg is educated pressure while Bivol is master jabber

                      I always thought ggg could have been greater given all of his education and physical gifts

                      what he lacked was quickness and blazing speed


                      GGG got hit a lot more. bivol had really good distance control and defense. canelo couldnt hit him. canelo also slowed down and bivol was quick.
