    Golovkin is the new watered down Tyson.

        Tyson made his fans based on how he fought and people are rarely interested in who he fought because his knockouts were spectacular. But he reigned over a terrible era of the HW division.

But fans love his style so they backup his resume. Writers even rank him highly at top 3 P4P with not one win against an elite. Best win is Martin Murray.
          No GGG has already beaten more quality guys. Tyson sadly lost to all of the near prime or prime quality guys he fought less Ruddock(who fought like an idiot). Tyson is easily the most overrated all time heavyweight. I will say this he did usher in the super sized heavyweight era as girth wise he was larger than most of the opponents he fought. Today he would struggle with his size against a Fury or a non frightened Wlad.

                  Tyrrell Biggs was a common opponent of Lennox and Tyson and said Tyson was better so it kind of puts his abilities in perspective.
                  Also Tyson beat Bruno so well and Bruno wads a decent fighter so I'd never belittle Tyson at his peak
