    Doesn't matter at the End of the day GGG will be considered great. I bet many threads like this was made about Calzaghe but at the end of the day he still HOF, still Top 100 fighter of all time, still consider the best SMW ever, and still consider an ATG.

    But the fight with Canelo will be made and it will not be at 155lbs. Canelo disagrees he loses his belts and GGG becomes undisputed.

    Than after GGG defends his undisputed belts for however long, Canelo will have reality and know he'll have to face the best fighter of their era to get recognition.

    He can't just fight at 155lbs for 3 years and still be considered great.

        As I said, you've confused the two.

        You can become the face of boxing without being great. Canelo is arguably there right now post May-Pac, he's probably the biggest draw out there.

        Can Golovkin become great? To answer that, you'd have to ask is Klitschko great?

        because he's perceived by a section of begrudging Americans to be in a weak division, lost 3 times, but still holds all the belts and will enter the HOF.

          How on God's green earth is GGG the best of any era?

            Calzaghe top 100 of all time? I bet more people would disagree with that than agree.

                Loeffler said, that if they want the CW they would have to give a good portion of the money to GGG. So lets say today is 80/20 this could be 65/35, so we all know GGG will have to agree to have a good PPV this time.

                  Canelo will probably demand 155 and 90/10 split just to try and claim the fight didn't get made because of GGG's team.
