    If GGG retired today, how would he be remembered 20 years from now?

    Would anybody even remember who he was? A lot of fighters careers are not appreciated until their careers are a done. I know GGG hasnt been around for a long time but for all the hype he has and being a unified champ, how would he be remembered?

          No offense to GGG, but he isn't Monzon or Hagler or Bhop or Robinson yet. He retires today he doesn't even make the HOF. would he even be remembered by anyone but the true die hards?

                  He will be remembered by no more than 5,000 people OUTSIDE OF BOXING in 20 years. The man hasn't done **** worth remembering.

                      He will be remembered as a fighter who looked good, but never actually fought a true good opponent.

                          He retires today, he will be remebered as the most feared guy in boxing and was force to retire for the safety of the other boxers.

                                  He has an incredible amateur record an has beaten everyone in front of him as a pro and is the Middlewight Champion of the World!!!!
                                  Not bad for a kid from no where!
                                  Who's a better fighter at middleweight?
                                  Man I'm sick of the kids on this forum just using the space to trol and hate!
                                  The guys lost 8 or 9 times in over 275 bouts whats not to like about that?

                                      He'd be remebered as a good fighter with a terrible resume.
