GGG could be considered the GOAT if....

[bojangles1987]

consider this....

lets say.... ward loses that one fight.... and goes on to dominate 168 and 175 goes down as an atg and never loses again....

floyd's already an atg.... and ggg inflicts his solitary loss....

that's goatness.... and lets say its a given he stays undefeated and dominates 160, breaks a bunch of records etc.

it's like sal sanchez.... azumah nelson/ wilfredo gomez are what solidify his legacy

He'd be an ATG if he did that. Not GOAT though. The accomplishments needed to enter that conversation are immense and Golovkin likely won't have enough time left to do it, even if he is good enough to beat everyone at middleweight and light heavyweight. Which, of course, is far from proven.

Peter Quillin is a mediocre boxer at best. Golovkin is more skilled, more powerful and is smarter. GGG would knock him out after five rounds of brutal beating.

Golovkin is a guy who picks on 154 pounders, he looks good cause he's not fighting anyone.

You can't come up with a worthy MW that's willing to fight him. He can only fight who's willing, even extremely undeserving Stevens

[Sugar Adam Ali]

I like GGG

but to be the goat he would have to beat

floyd
serg
ward
stevenson
klitchko

then he would be up there with the SRR, and Ali true GOATs

[Tay Roc]

He'd have to finish his career undefeated to be an ATG.

He'd have to beat Ward (twice), Martinez, Stevenson, and maybe even Mayweather @ 154/152.

quillins long and strong.....

he's not feather fisted.... you cant just walk through him.

he can box if he wants to.

Oh yeah, N'Jikam fight showed how good he can box

Golovkin is a guy who picks on 154 pounders, he looks good cause he's not fighting anyone.

He just ****d a legimate middleweight who beat Strum and gave hell to Sergio Martinez. Quillin on the other hand, is fighting Golovkin's leftover

[Ogecca MaMa]

if he beats everyone at 154, 160 and 168. i'd consider him in top 5 goat. but #1? I would have to see how he deals with all of the fighters he faced.

so far, I don't see anyone taking Sugar Robinson's place

[Simurgh]

Unfortunately too many things worked against Genady in his early career. For a long time he wasn't promoted well and now when he is finally there not many fighters want to fight him.

Most of the guys who sparred him are very reluctant to step in.

I would be happy if he gets his chance in fighting Martinez, then Froch/Ward.
Floyd is quite unrealistic IMO.

[BadStoppage]

You can't come up with a worthy MW that's willing to fight him. He can only fight who's willing, even extremely undeserving Stevens

Because you and him so he should dictate all the terms of the fights.

he didn't respect him... so he didn't have to box....

he'd show a lot more respect for the midget.
