Beat Duran in a great fight, beat Hearns in a great great great fight, almost beat Leonard, undefeated Mugabi. His story in general and his persona.

      How is he not a legend?
      A guy that is considered one of the best 135 pounders ever was in a great fight with a MW? Damn! Legend!

            Don't try to pass off Golovkin's garbage ass resume by slipping in Oscar's. Just Oscars ******* and hookers resume alone pisses all over Golovkin's entire career.

                And can you tell me what this "legend" did his first 10 years as a pro? Besides accounting 2 losses in the process.

                  Bennie Briscoe would be the best name on GGG's resume.

                    You would benefit greatly from some boxing history lessons. You have no idea what you are talking about.
                    I came to say this.

                    Scott beat me to it. Word for word.

                      How is this even possible to call a guy like this legendary? In his 45th fight, he fought a guy with 38 losses. In his 39th fight he fought a guy with 11 wins and 26 losses. In his 38th fight, he fought a guy with just 11 fights. In his 35th fight, he fought a guy with one single fight, a loss.
                      Boxrec is a hell of a website, huh?
