    Who is the closest to "elite" that GGG has faced?

    Is it Geale? Because even then he is a C class fighter who got beat by Barker who was probably a D+ fighter.

      the guy in your avi refuses to fight him which prevents him from getting good names on his resume so it's a catch 22.

        GGG has not faced one opponent that had a chance to defeat him. The best opponent he faced was Gaele-and he had as much chance as Salka did against Danny or Caparello had against Kovalev.

        That said, he is IMO a slight notch below Floyd, rigo, ward and JMM in terms of being a complete boxer. He is tremendously skilled and I hope he fights someone on his level so we can see those skills.

          If GGG was in this position 3 years ago then Froch would have faced him.

                3 years ago or not. What's the difference? Is it about confidence? Hopkin, being 50, who is facing Kovalev, has more confidence than Froch.

                  Froch wants his last fight to be against Chavez Jr in Vegas or he'll retire. He doesn't want anything else and after that he's done.

                    Unfortunately this sums up when Sergio was king:
