So Golovkin beat Saunders

[HeroBando]

So just to make sure, please answer simple yes or no, you are saying Macklin, proksa, rosado and Stevens are TOP middleweights? Because that's what you said. (Btw you didn't fool me, you mixed and matched from 6 ranking organizations to try and fit your narrative)

Ishida ranked 11 by ring??!! They only rank through ten! Now you are making things up completely

Look at all those tkos. Golovkin can't get beautiful flush kos like Mayweather, Jacobs or Canelo

Lololol these guys are too much

[Jsmooth9876]

What defense record?? the ones where we count his "regular" title defenses?? even Hopkins record title run is not real..Monzon had 13 LINEAL TITLE DEFENSES and thats the real record

Yeah and Canelo will have 2 after he beats Liam Smith in September lol...

Doesnt make the racord **** they are trying to push with GGG any less watered down man

Bull****. The WBC rules put Golovkin in a position to get more than he's worth, 45% of the purses, the purse bids were going to take place next week. Canelo did the right thing by dropping the belt. Now they can negotiate a fair deal.

The WBC rules don't do that, at all.

Go read the rules if you're going to make a ****** claim.

The only record people are gonna hear about, just like everyone considers Hopkins the record holder.

How can you even count his regular title defenses and keep a straight face?

Champ vs Interim is a 55/45 split, the purse bids were scheduled for next week. What part of that is wrong?

I couldn't care less about the record, if it's official to the sanctioning body then fk it...

when the lineal champ ducks his toughest opposition which the last 3 did at MW then what does that "title" value actually hold anyway?

[HeroBando]

How do those Pbc announcers call Jacobs Mw champ and keep a straight face? Besides everyone knows who The Man was in the Wba rankings then

[OnePunch]

But vacant nonetheless. I wonder why you went through this whole process to arrive at the same conclusion.

the problem with your thinking (or lack thereof) is that in order for a title to be considered "vacant", there can be no Champion. When Canelo decided to pass on the GGG fight, the title did not become "vacant", it simply passed to GGG

Its not that complicated

If we're talking records, it should be where Golovkin was clearly the best middleweight in the world, which in my view was proven by beating Murray. Lineal titles can mean even less than ABC titles so its a bit silly to overrate them,

But using the Hopkins formula, we should start the 'record' from when Golovkin was the sole WBA champion, which was after Rosado... so he has 11 'title defences' in the same vein as Hopkins
