    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 as a fighter who looked good, but never actually fought a true good opponent.

                  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!

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