Time to see a doctor Shaw it probably Alzheimer.

Along with anyone else who has the idiocy to compare GGG with all the greats.

[alembic]

It's far too early to be placed in that group although he's definitely more exciting to watch than Bhop or Ward.

none of them have ever took someones defense out, GGG hits you in the fists and sends them flying sideways opening your face for a train impact

wow you must be on some serious hallucinogens to think GGG is a better middle weight then B hop and james toney and on super drugs to even put Roy in the same sentence right now when GGG just finished fighting Geale a guy roy would of fought in his 16th pro fight ( and embarised not just KOed him) back when he was fighting at 160. GGG would get embarised by Roy ya'll must of forgot)

now lets all remember

I honestly think GGG only has power, he is like Matthysse. He will soon meet his match. The thing is the 160 division is weak.

lol wow. Massive overstatement.

Only power? That three punch combo to take out Macklin was not "only power."

GGG has power and a chin. But he puts tremendous pressure on his opponents as well. I think he is a great talent. Is GGG in the same class as Nunn, McCallum, Benn, let alone Toney, Hopkins or RJJ? No. But that doesn't make him a bum does it?

I think he can get much,much better very quickly as he fights better and better quality opposition. Everyone is mocking Gaele - but that's because we're raising the bar. He's no longer an overhyped bum and is now being compared to far higher class of fighter.

I think GGG is light-years ahead of Pavlik and would take out Jermain Tayler. He is probably the best middleweight since Hopkins. A fight with Martinez (who I was a big fan of) would have been great match-up. A year ago I thought the advantage was all Martinez - now I think it would be a toss-up.

[HeroBando]

He's says that so he can keep Geale marketable.

He was calling him a beast even before Proksa. Said hed tried to sign him, Top Rank, everyone. TR matchmaker Brad Goodman rated GGG #1 ar MW before their guy Pavlik lost to Sergio. So its nothing new

[therealpugilist]

I guess he missed James Toney,Mike McCallum, Marvelous Marvin Hagler, Carlos Monzon, Michael Nunn, and Bernard Hopkins since 1970


Or he simply hasnt watched any middleweights since last night

I'am not even sure golvkin would of beat a prime "PANTERA" at 160.
