    On topic, I don't think there is a clear standing in the MW division. We'll know more at the end of the year.

    Does beating Macklin put Golovkin No.2? possibly in the eyes of some but not everyone. The good thing is Triple G is going to continue fighting the best so if it now, it won't be long.

      If im ranking them now

      champ serg but his days are numbered
      2Quillen I think he has the most upside and has improved every fight
      3Geale- beaten top guys in their own backyard
      4 GGG- Devastating power-but really hasnt a top middleweight yet

        The issue I have with putting Quillin so high is that he's clearly ducking Golovkin after getting worked over in sparring, he was fortunate to get past N'Dam, and unlike Geale, Barker, Murray etc he's not prepared to travel to fight.

        If there's benefit of the doubt with any of the rankings, then Quillin doesn't deserve it.

          Good points... You got me changing my mind!!

          I just think that kid chocolate has improved every fight...At some point in the next year he will put it all together.. I think..

It's easy to say a fighter looks better cuz they fight a bunch of nobodies and when they step their game up they get praised by beating washed up fighters like Ishida and Rosado GTFO...Yeah Winky Wright was kinda washed too but at least he was a FORMER world champion...
            That "euro bum" Proksa was and still is Top 10 MW wheter you like or not, Quillin is really lucky he has some pop in his hands beacuse N'Jikam was easy outpointing him. Guy has power and that's it, GGG will be number 2 deal with it.
            And tell your boy to finally grow a pair and fight the man who made him his ***** when they sparred.

              Does it matter who is number 2 now? Absolutely no. We boxing fans need spectacular fights, and GGG gives us that.
              And you all know very good, that those [...] promoters don't want to take a risk until they milked their fighters completely out. So just stop to compare fighters on paper, this is simply ridiculous.

                We need to judge boxers based on what they have done, those are facts. You can't go around predicting what will happen or what fighters feel or think based on your own bias! That my friend is Fantasy, only you believe it.

                  Oh, I know that. But names mean nothing, only styles Personally I think nobody at MW can stop GGG.

                      It's a **** division anyway but like I said Golovkin is getting nothing but hype for beating guys he should easily beat. Some washed up contenders...
