Can a non american be the mega face of boxing?? (AKA GGG)

[////]

He needs a rivalry.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Manny did it. No reason GGG won't be able to do the same. His English is getting better, that's really the only obstacle I see in his way

This^^^^^

Could also throw in canelo..



Darkhorse being Anthony Joshua, he def has the looks, if he can dominate, he could be the biggest star in boxing by 2020

Fighters done it in the past, and will continue to do it boxing is a global sport. Canelo and GGG is all goes well they gonna be like the new era version of Mayweather and Pacquaio (popularity wise)

[-Kev-]

Canelo Alvarez.

I just realized that GGG is 32

Pac was the face of boxing for a long time. Even Hollywood lined up to see him. He was a positive force at a time boxing was being touted as a dying sport. He single handedly kept boxing in the news.

Canelo will never achieve it because he already lost convincingly to Floyd. GGG? He's really boring. He has a mechanical style not really appealing to the casual fan. Hopkins may well be the next face of boxing if he wins against Kovalev and if he wins after that against a really credible name.

This needs to stop. The man (GGG), is 31 years old and hasn't fought at an elite level. He's being treated as if he's in his early 20's coming up. People can say everyone is ducking him and what not but Golovkin hasn't made an effort to find matches above his division. Other fighters have moved up one weight class to create opportunity for a big fight. Golovkin is supposed to be this big puncher, but I'm starting to doubt how well he would carry his power at super middle weight when his people won't even fight a contender in the 168 pound division.

I think he can as long as his team gets him the fights he wants. I don't think he should fight anybody at 168, I think I would like to see him fight Murray first then maybe Quillin after that he can also fight the winner of Canelo vs Cotto at 160 also.

He has the style to carry the torch like many others have, like Tyson, Chavez, Jones Jr, Hoya, Trinidad, Pac & Mayweather.

[Cinci Champ]

Once May and Pac are gone (can't wait for that to happen) who do we really have left to carry on the sport?? enter GGG....dude seems to have the package except one thing....he is not from the US and A....and his English (although hilarious good boy) is poor at best...I think Manny almost did it but not quite...but if he keeps demolishing even the top kats in the sport...he will be the guy....

what does that mean for the future of boxing??

Wachugot?

no because eventually he would have to fight ward
