    Not really. Froch, Kessler and Dirrell never moved up. Ward has beat no one of note at 175 where he drags up supermiddleweights. According to all the GGG detractors, GGG isn't great because he doesn't move up.

    So what makes all the bolded so much better than Murray, Macklin or Geale?

    nah, GGG isn't great because he doesn't sack up

    But, SPOT QUIZ: who said this..... " anyone from 154-168 doe "

            1.
            a person chosen or appointed to act or speak for another or others, in particular:



            You can't seriously be trying to insinuate that Gennady should not be held 100% responsible for the "anyone from 154-168" line that has been the foundation of his marketing/PR strategy..... surely?

              That's quite an extrapolation from that short reply to your short question.

              No, not insinuating anything. Just answered your question which is not factually incorrect. Thank you for the links though.

                Thanks for clearing that up for me, bud...I must be getting forgetful in my old age.

                also, DeGale...

                  Lara would shut no one up, because there is no reason to see it as competitive... GGG will outbox and outpower him... I shouldn't say that because I have no faith in any super boxer super fighter but he's (GGG) head and shoulders above everyone right now as a boxer... I don't like that he gets anxious for the KO after hurting the guy one time, in a way he's like Frazier with his chin and willingness to take one to deliver a big one, but Frazier had to contend with guys way bigger... I wish Pirog would have happened, in a way we are all still waiting for something similar.
                  I like the Eubank fight just because it is a fight... against somebody, anybody... fights don't fall out of the air... GGG was fighting 4 times a year and nobody wanted and nobody wants to fight him with 2 months to train... as usual the Eubank talk, like most "GGG I will fight" talk, is coming when he has a fight to promote, we will see how serious things are soon...
                  You are preaching to the choir. Everything, everything you said was spot on. GGG gets hate while Canelo gets a pass for making a fight nobody wanted. Keep up the good work.
