Triple G vs Tito, Pavlik, and Abraham

[DLT]

how do you think those fights wouldve played out at their best? Do you think G walks through them or do you think they give him problems or beat him?

GGG vs a prime and undefeated Arthur Abraham at 160 would be an interesting fight. IMO Abraham had more 1 punch KO power than GGG at that weight and we know Golovkin can be hit. Would be a good fight.............

I honestly think Abraham was very overrated, even at 160. He technically lost to Edinson Miranda (and robbed him), and didn't legitimately beat him until Pavlik ruined him. I think a 160 Abraham v. GGG would be FOTY candidate although I would put my money on GGG on the basis of him being the better technical fighter.

Abraham's 160 resume was a lot like GGG's (currently), his resume mostly contained either little known fighters or shot formerly average opponents. The one decent guy he fought at 160 Miranda (a heavy-handed but one-dimensional fighter) actually beat him but got robbed in Germany. He also had wins over Khoren Gevor and a rematch against Miranda. He went 12 rounds with Lajuan Simon, who Golovkin KO'd in 1.

I think GGG's greatest weakness (defense aside) could be his lack of 12 round stamina (most of his fights end early). It's possible that a big strong middleweight like Pavlik could keep him away and take GGG's power; take him in deep and finish him late or batter him enough to earn a solid UD.

I would worry about Trinidad's chin if he fought GGG, but maybe he could catch Golovkin with a good left hook (GGG was hit by this punch several times against Curtis) and change the fight although Golovkin's chin has looked sturdy so far. I honestly think Trinidad's best work was at 147-154, but again, considering GGG is untested over 12 rounds he could also have a chance of landing a decision.

Prime v Prime, I think GGG may not be able to beat any of them. Why do I say this? Because I have no idea what GGG's prime is like, he hasn't fought good enough names for me to make a judgement on him yet. Macklin was his best win and he looked comfortable throughout, having said that, Tito probably stops him worse and Pavlik/AA stop Macklin late, much like a lackadaisical Martinez.

There just isn't enough to go on in terms of what I've seen to start putting GGG into fantasy match ups with a guy who is a p4p great, one who was the lineal middleweight champion and another guy who is one of the hardest hitting mw in a long while.

Triple G decisions Abraham, KO's Pavlik, and goes life and death with Wrapidad but knocks him out in the 12th.

Tito vs Golovkin??? Sheesh! Talk about brutal.
