After seeing this picture I realized GGG is a small middleweight

Golovkin is 5' 11" not 5' 8" and he's not a small Middleweight at all. In which fight exactly was he noticeably smaller than his opponent? Show me a tale of the tape where he is 160-165 pounds on fight night.
I also wonder how can anyone know for sure that he can make 154 given that he has never fought at that weight. If he moves up to 168, then he would be fighting bigger men.
They used to say Canelo was 5 foot 10 before, but his real height is 5 foot 7, they also used to list Keith Thurman as 5 foot 11, but he is closer to 5 foot 7 or 8.Comment

GGG is about the same height as canelo and rehydrates to only around 170. he really isn't a big middleweight, but it's incredible that he hits so hard.
meanwhile you have cowards who drain themselves down and rehydrate 20+ lbs on fight night to have that size and power advantage (ie. canelo, donaire, chavez jr, salido, etc.).Comment

Threads like this confuse me..the same posters claim he is small and can easily make 154...now all the sudden he would be drained at 155.....should he have to make 155 for Canelo???NO!!!!! but damn look at the posts hereComment

GGG said making 154 is no problem. He would KO any 154 pounder with ease I think. His combination of speed, skill and power and his iron jaw make him too much for Cotto, Mayweather, Canelo or Lara. The 154 pounders would probably avoid him just like most middleweights do.Comment

I don't know if he's "small" per se, but he isn't a HUGE middleweight like Canelo is a HUGE junior middleweight or Margarito used to be a HUGE welterweightComment
