    How would GGG do at Super Middleweight

    Since it is more than likely he will move up there at some point in his career, this is more of a projection. How would Gennady Golovkin do if he were to move up to the super middleweight division and fought guys more his size? Gennady looked very big compared to Curtis Stevens in his last bout.

    Hopefully we seee this soon. So many saying hes avoided and this and that but im sure the 168's would be inviting to a match. He does have unfinished business at 160 though.

      He goes to Germany and gets TKO's by Stieglitz.

          Hopefully he KO's Ward. But his power would probably decrease at the weight.

            See the problem that I see with him at 160 is there aren't a lot of people, especially the titleholders, who are looking to fight him. So although he still has fighters to prove himself against, I don't see him being able to at this weight, no one wants it from GGG

            Haha! GGG has an iron chin man if anyone's getting TKOed its Stieglitz.

            True

            Y'know, I can't really call it with Ward's chin. A flush shot from Golovkin will hurt the best of em, but in my opinion the jury is still out on Ward's chin so I wouldn't be surprised to see GGG put him out

                I'd worry he'd suffer the same fate as Abraham.

                    Obviously because of Stieglitz, the most avoided 168lber in boxing.
