GGG fought at 4 weight classes

[HeroBando]

How do you think amateur sports work? What an asinine statement.

That's how they work, there's no draining down since you weigh in and fight every couple of days. 152 fight night is LW or jww in the pros

[bklynboy]

139, 147, 156 & 165?

I don't think this sorta thing is uncommon. What is uncommon is GGG being within 3 or 4lbs or so in all his pro fights over a decade plus.

Well Monzon is missing a lot of weights so who knows with him, but yea its a rare thing.

... "gg was getting outboxed by direll"...

it was an amateur friendly fight which was scored at 21-20 ... at the Olympics, GGG beat Dirrell...

I'm just wondering since GGG and I are the same age why in da fawk is his middle school picture black and white. That's not him, *****s trying to trick me. Nobodies elementary school picture should look like a collectable and worth money.

It looks like it's from a yearbook.

Whenever I hear people bragging about Rigo's, Loma's, and GGG's long successful amateur career, all I can think of is grown ass men beating up teenagers.

It's a Kazakhstan right after USSR collapsed, no market economy no capitalism, nothing, what do you want? People barely had money to eat. Can you imagine an inflation of 2000%?

95% of boxers move up to a new division because they get too fat. Golovkin gets criticized for having self-discipline.

[OnePunch]

the nerve of GGG, not drying himself out to 154 or 147 earlier in his career in order to take advantage of smaller opponents..........
