Ruddock/Morrison/Golota all looked as good as GGG does now prior to their downfall.

Basically you think Golovkin is lucky to be in a weak MW division, he is a power puncher who will get found out, or would be found out if there was an elite level fighter in his division.
You're not saying anything we haven't heard already from Golovkin detractors.
Anyhow, I don't get into the old fights much but I have watched Monzon and while Golovkin will possibly never have the record of the Argentine, imo he would beat him H2H.Comment

You should've made this statement your thread, there was no need to confuse it with heavyweights.

golota was a lumbering idiot who doesnt have GGG's athleticism, versatility, and overall offensive game.
morrison had potential early on but never lived up to it. he was more white hype than actual great boxer.
razor ruddock had that corkscrew uppercut but he is not on the same level as GGG when it comes to offense.
GGG's upside/potential is far greater than all of those fighters.Comment

I think Monson and Hagler are TOP3 / TOP 5 Middleweights. I have a hard time putting either LL or Tyson in the TOP 10. Both are in the 11-20 range for me. Of course that depends on the day. On some days I would have each at around number 10.
Secondly the middleweight has, historically, been much deeper than the heavyweight division.
What happens after the Ali/Louis/Frazier/Foreman tier?
You going to say the likes of Dempsey or Liston are greater than Lewis or Tyson? On what grounds?
Like I said........impossible to list 10.Comment
