    Well Broner has fought the better competition. You can't argue that. I do believe that Golovkin will go down as the greater P4P fighter though. Of course I could be wrong. We'll just have to wait and see. I have never really been sold Broner, even in the lower weight classes. GGG just seems to be on a different level to me. It's always tough trying to predict how great a fighter will be though.

      Let me be real here. Broner has a much better resume and it's not close. However this isn't GGG's fault, I like what I see in Golovkin but no one wants a piece of him. How can you stack a great record when you're a fighter who's risk is higher than the reward?

Losing to maidana is no embarrassment, maidana is a good fighter who has been competitive in 99% of his fights against competition that GGG hasn't even sniffed yet. GGG doesn't compare to broner.....at all!

        i'm not contesting that broner has a better resume but it's not that much like you claimed. what he has over golovkin was his wins against demarco and malignaggi that's it. losing to maidana diminished his resume whether you like it or not.

            broner.

            maidana did pretty decent against floyd mayweather. demarco was the top lightweight in the world IIRC, or at the very least in the top 3.

            macklin was a pretty good win. he did well against martinez, and was ranked top 5 at middleweight when golovkin took his soul. stevens was a decent win, but he's nothing to write home about.

              Not one mother***er is reluctant to fight Broner.
              Who cares? Thats on GGG's team for not making him marketable, GGG is high risk low reward, he has beat nobody and expects fighters to be lining up to fight him.....No fighter is afraid of any fighter and GGG has had many opportunities to go up in weight and face top fighters, broner did it, how come GGG hasn't?

                Yes but GGG's resume is so trash that even with a maidana loss broner is Still way ahead of GGG.

                  Not true.Is it better? Maybe, really only bc of Maidana, but is it really much better. I'm neither a ggg-tard or pacf@g and I disagree. Who has Broner fought that makes his resume much better? The best guy he fought was Maidana and he kicked his ass. Other than him who is so good? Malinaggi is on par with guys Golovkin has beat (and that was an extremely close fight), and who else is there? Antonio Demarco? Eloy Perez?
                  Maybe the Broner-tard is the one with the clouded judgement

                    ggg's last fight was against an african taxi driver....lmao. malinaggi, demarco and add to the fact that he has moved up in weight facing TOP guys ****s on anything GGG has done......GGG hasn't even done that in his natural weight division. GGG is the most overrated fighter in the last 5 years.....all the crap that broner and canelo get when they're facing top 10 opposition, with that logic you'd think that GGG would be ****ted on.

                      Broner has but he's struggled and lost when he did.
