    Then he loses.

    Wont be the first "monster" to lose after being hyped or the last.

    I give Lemiuex a punchers chance and nothing more.

      Regardless, it wouldn't change my opinion on GGG. He is an entertaining fighter, and I think Lemieux is a good fighter as well who gets no credit. This generation is a joke, they've come to idolize that "0" that Mayweather has so much that they think a loss instantly tarnishes a fighters legacy.
      What do you want to give Lemiuex credit for? He ****ing got stopped by Rubio and outboxed by Alcine back when he was getting hype. What do you mean by no credit? There are many other fighters that get no credit but deserve it way more than Lemiuex.

          Yes he is one of the most talked about if not the most talked about fighter, doesn't mean you need to voice the same ishhh every time dude. That's my point. He's beaten who has manned up to fight him...Dibella electing to with Cotto for Martinez has some of ya'll fooled that this dude should technically be the lineal champion at 160 right now.

            Like with any dazzling attraction that loses its appeal, it kinda stands around and collects moss. That's what would happen if he lost. Golovkin can't afford to lose at this point because his monster invincibility is what is driving his hype machine, it's different for every fighter.

            I think a loss sets him back quite a bit, but he isn't going to lose...

              All I did was respond to someone about him getting labeled a hype job. Which he would be if he loses to David ***ing lemeuix

I thought they should have had a few seconds of KO highlights interspersed into the commercial, to give non-fans some context. Maybe they couldnt get the footage rights from HBO or something, who knows........
                Usually a commercial with an atlete in it there is a narrator who says the name of the athlete, or, the name of tbe athlete is somehow onscreen. Apple failed to do this if they wanted to associate a rising boxer with their watch, they should have said his name somehow talk about how Gennady Golovkin uses Apple Watch for his big championship fights to help him train. The shots were clear, you could see it's him.

                    I agree with that, the way his image was built up by his fans, HBO and Abel Sanchez, they put a ton of pressure on this guy. If he can live up to it he will be a star, if not then yeah he will be labeled a "Hype Job"

                      GGG is not hype and neither is Lemioux !

                      Either can be KO'd in a flash!! The adrenalin is flowing!!! Big time boxing is back with the best KO artist facing each other!!

                      The feeling out process is done!! I expect a KO by GGG in 1to3
