ggg just didnt have the guys to fight when he was on top seems to me anyway, he seemed about even with canelo but he was older when he fought him so idk, he was good but not on usyk level i dont think, usyk has more tricks i think

Is Usyk a more advanced fighter than GGG ever was?
Also he beat Canelo in that first first pretty clean for me.

Golovkin hasn't really got the resume of Usyk.
However, we know Golovkin's record is a false one. He beat Canelo those first two fights, he shouldn't have a draw and a loss from those. They should be wins.
Being realistic, against Usyk, Briedis and Fury in the first fight did pretty much about as well as Canelo did in the first two GGG fights (Actually both did better than Canelo in the first). The only difference is the judges scored it it correctly for Usyk.
GGG's record doesn't really tell the whole truth.
Usyk can and should be considered greater because he dominated two divisions. Could GGG have dominated more top fighters and a couple of divisions if he wasn't well avoided for a good few years before he was even fighting on HBO? Probably but we'll never know.
So we have to give the edge to Usyk based on accomplishments, I think prime GGG was just as good a fighter though.

My guy, AJ and Fury are far better victories than anyone that Golovkin has defeated. Who is the best guy that GGG beat, Daniel Jacobs, Willie Monroe lol? Even Dubois is a better victory than any of GGG W's.

AJ overrated, and the version of fury that usyk fought and beat is a washed fury... that's like pac fans hyping up the oscar win. it's a good name but not the best version.
