Comments Thread For: Lemieux "Would Love" To Fight Gennady Golovkin Next

I agree. N'Dam is a very talented boxer who is slick enough to make Lemieux miss.

Quillin couldn't stop him and Stevens could not even hit him. I would not put it past him to come out on top.

If you took any of the greats... Leonard, Hagler, Duran, etc... and moved them into today, they would be hyped as much as anyone else in the world is today if not more. People really have to get a handle on this comparing today's fighters with those of the past, There is no possible way to know how the fights would turn out and those kind of comparisons are foolish. Would we still be looking at Ali as the Greatest if Teo Stevenson had defected and turned pro?

Spoken like a true boxing novice. You sound boxing clueless, cluless about boxing which it's obvious you are. If anything today those greats would be consider boxing legends because their skill level, determination and toughness would be superior to those fighting today. You cant hype the truth and all the boxing greats you mentioned were the truth. And had proved it over and over again with their displays of skill, dominance and determination against many opponents who would have been long reigning champions in this era for sure. That statement simply shows your boxing ignorance.

Your post shows your total lack or reading comprehension. If the greats of the past were fighting today, no one would know who they were, they would be fighters on the same level of any other, fighting their way through their opponents. You seem to be thinking that I mean take the greats with their existing status and records and move them into the present. That is not the idea at all. I am talking about them starting their careers TODAY. NO past history. NO past ATG status. Just fighters like everyone else, getting the same kind of hype that everyone gets today.
