    Can Golovkin get as high as 175?

      Doubt it. He seems to be more a Junior Middleweight Middleweight rather than a Super Middleweight Middlweight, if that makes any sense.

        I get you but I don't agree with you.

        Golovkin's what? 170 on fight night?

        That's more of a Super Middleweight Middleweight, to me.

          What weight are super middleweights and light heavyweights on fight night?

          Canelo and Trout were over 170 when they fought and they are junior middleweights.

            And they're both very big Jr MW's.

            Golovkin would be a solid SMW. He would be what Mayweather is at WW. A guy who walks around and fights at the actual weight being fought at.

              Yes the point is that at 175 Golovkin would presumably be at a pretty large size disadvantage. His team said anyone from 154-168, they did not stretch it as far as 175.

                I would absolutely LOVE to see Froch matched against either GGG or Frankenstein

                  The ideal fights for these two are:

                  Golovkin-Martinez and Kovalev-Ward


                  IMO

                    I didn't say 175, hence why I questioned it.

                      If he is a Super Middleweight Middleweight then he would be able to make 175, you suggested he is, I am maintaining he isn't.
