    Someone rangy with one shot power in their dominant hand and a decent enough hook t9 keep him honest. You never know though, he could be like Rigo or Floyd where as soon as someone has him thinking and catches them with something you see a whole new level.

      Easy carrying out a plan for a couple of rounds like Cleverly showed but down the stretch is where it will tell so absolutely that heart and amazing conditioning would need to be all included with a perfect gameplan.
      Huh?

      But I agree with the rest of your statement but like I said, good chin, huge heart. These guys will have to go through hell to beat GGG but it's not impossible. He is there to be hit and possibly...possibly, there to be tired down the stretch. I don't think anyone at middleweight can do that. SMW? Possibly Ward, who is big and strong and can really bully on the inside, heck he bullied Froch at times. DeGale? He always falters in the middle rounds so I'm not sure/

      At lhw, there are more guys, but largely due to the size differential. If at some stage in his career, GGG does go up, like many middleweight champs before him and beats a legit name at LHW, it would be a terrific achievement.

        No man born from his mother can beat Golovkin.

          Golovkin is basically this era's tito trinidad,, he is gonna crush everyone til he faces a top notch p4p guy like hopkins...

          I don't see too many guys around currently that can deal with golovkin besides ward..
          Maybe 2 years from now j-rock williams may be a threat
          The Jr MWs are really the best middleweights when you think about it, Golovkin could go on to have a great career but that's dependent on so many 'ifs'.

            You're finally making some sense. I'd love to see the Charlos and Andrade up at middleweight. Tall, rangy fighters with good handspeed and great footwork. I like that. Sadly they're all lazy, don't fight much and are Haymon managed.

                Somebody like Beterbiev... or someone like Lara (but with much more heart in the fight)... No joking here.

                  Yep but too many ifs, we'll see.

                      Andre Ward because of size advantage. Honestly if Ward was a middleweight, I think Golovkin would overpower him and end the fight late rounds. Goes to say who should be higher on P4P list.
