    He's the "Middleweight Champion of the World"!!!!

    where are the top ten contenders?? Who are their managers and who are their promoters?? Thats where some pressure needs to be. Since when does a middleweight champion have to step down to 54 to fight??? Ridiculous! Ray

        He gets talked about by fans now. Martinez can't say that GGG is not well known anymore. Pirog and GGG should fight since they both seem to be avoided by the other middleweights.I guess he should just keep fighting the best guys that will get in the ring with him and knocking them out. The big fights will come I think. He does not look like a big middleweight and he should not go to 168 to fight guys much bigger than himself. Maybe Quillin or Geale will fight him. It is hard to know who the real middleweight champ is when the best middleweights won't fight each other. I think GGG might be the best of all of them including Martinez.

          Yeah he's a solid middleweight, people say he should move down because he's not 6ft tall but he's stocky, you can see he has heavy bone mass, it ain't all about the height.

            He came into camp weighing 168 for Rosada. Thats a weight most 154 rehydrate to. Im not sure why he doesnt fight at 154, other then he likes fighting closer to his natural weight. He is certainly on the smaller scale for middleweights, just look at Quillin or JCC jr

                GGG vs JCC Jr. (would be a fight Jr. could actually participate in)
                GGG vs Martinez
                GGG unify division

                  It doesn't mean anything, Martinez was like 175 lbs 30 days before his fight with Chavez Jr and he's smaller than GGG, some guys just stay in shape all year long. Also I think the reason why GGG gets sick before his fights is because he has to drain himself to make 160 which affects his immune system.

                  Quillin and Chavez Jr are exceptions, Quillin fought at 168 most of his career and recently moved down, Chavez Jr we all know he's a natural cruiserweight who uses products (legal and illegal) to make 160.

                  If you look at most top middleweights (Geale, Macklin, Pirog, Sturm, Barker) GGG is just as big as them.

                    Marinez is pretty much the same size as Golovkin. How does GGG Drain himself? He weighed 168 coming into camp and 168 i think during fight night. Thats a very moderate rehydration. Even Rosado is bigger then him

                    Quillin and JCC arent exceptions, they're what huge MWs are
