    Stop trying to rewrite history, GGG was up on the points and would have won a decision anyway.

      The problem with your statement is that GGG is already fighting bigger guys, Geale and Murray were both bigger than GGG. For GGG to move to Super Middle would be like Mayweather moving up to Middleweight.

        Totally disagree with you Larry. Lacy had nowhere near the skillset of GGG. I watched him and always thought he was over rated. With GGG, I question his resume and his hypocricy, but his talent IMO is unquestionable.

        Lacy is more like Gary Russell to me.

          LOOOOL this is such a bad comparison. Lacey isn't half the boxer Gennady is, nor can he cut the ring off like GGG. GGG hits harder, and it way better all around.

              Such a dumb comparison.

              How can people watch GGG and not think he's elite?

              You think fighters are ducking him by accident?

                The more interesting question is:

                Could LarryXXX end up like Jermain Taylor?

                It seems like he is getting there.

                  Easy tiger.

                  I actually thought Golovkin was mid-20s or something up until recently but the man is 33 ***in years old. Lacy was 27 I believe when he went over to England to fight Calzaghe.

                  I thought ok, cool, they don't want to throw him in with Ward yet cos he's young and there's time but what the hell are they waiting for?

                  You're saying I'm ****** but I'm just quoting what Tom Loeffler said when asked if they would fight Ward shortly after Ward beat Rodriguez. "Gennady would need a huge chunk of the money, it doesn't make financial sense" - I just don't understand what he had ever done to deserve that lofty status and why they think they will only consider PPV for some fights. Who do they think they are?

                    Ward will make GGG peel and suck his banana before pushing his sh/t in. Hype exposed.
