Let's be honest here, GGG is the greatest MW of all time

"Isn't that how it goes"?.....................

I think your point has some validity but with GGG I need to see more!
I actually think he fights to his competitions level and I don't like that!
His proving ground is Canelo because the kid is a good boxer! However it's time for Canelo to be tested also. Hopefully the promotion teams let them fight in 2017 and they pray it's a good close fight so the money triples up! $$$ GGG

I like what I see but I see decline coming sooner than not! He has flaws but no opponents as yet to try and capitalize on them. I think he is a tough guy and would go out on his shield if need be, most punchers are like that.

I hope he stays at middleweight because that is who he is. The people who cry for fighters to "move up" don't know squat. They see all these midgets from 140 to 154 move around and think it's a normal progression.

Fighters move up when they mature and simply can't make weight anymore.
Guys like Armstrong took on other weight class champs because they could hold the weight well and brought their power with them.

GGG at 175 could never be effective at 180 but his opponents would be 190 fight night!
He might have two good years left but at his size and weight and all the amateur bouts I think he peters out pretty soon.

Bingo and this is coming from one of the more experienced members who is in the know yet people treat the body maturing and a fighter moving up 7lbs as a marvelous achievement lol.

[just the facts]

Given the fact that all the best don't want to have anything to do with him If you can't realize that he is clearly gifted and probably the biggest puncher the MW division has ever had that's your own fault.

If Marvin Haglers had a huge money fight at 155, do you think he would have passed? If Marvin Hagler had a huge legacy fight at 168, do you think he would have passed?

Post and discuss.

he has the greatest hype for any middleweight I have seen thats for sure.

[CaneloMaidana]

Harry Greb, Carlos Monzon and Marvin Hagler are the top three.

Golovkin in ability is up there with them, but he needs a couple of good wins to move into the top ten.

If Alvarez and Jacobs fight him, then Eubank and Saunders, it will improve his resume.

Tiger Flowers beat Greb and its accepted many of his losses were robberies.

Julian Jackson puts him to sleep.

You think Hagler would drop down to 155lbs at his weight?
Lol you're pretty daft.

Lol you're pretty daft.

News flash skippy, Hagler was itching for a money fight, if Leonard/Hearns would have insisted upon 155, Hagler would have jumped on it.

The daft one is YOU! **** breathe

Lmfao how idiotic are you!
A life-time 160lbs only fighter would just jump down 5lbs and kill his body just to get a cash cheque you really think that low of Hagler?
Then again maybe he would have since he had lost previous to SRL he had nothing to lose everything to gain.

just ignore him mate, hes a hardcore golovkin hater who cant be reasoned with, not even sure hes a fan of any fighters thinking about it.

Obviously not today but in Hagler's era the Middleweight Crown was only matched by the Heavyweight Title!
If you wanted the Middleweight Champ the weight limit was long established at 160!!!! No questions about catch weight BS there is NO WAY Hearns or Leonard approach Hagler with a 155 proposal! First it's an insult and second how do you challenge and also bring demands?

What Canelo did with the middleweight title is disgraceful but thats the landscape in todays boxing. I do believe he will fight GGG in 2017 and when it happens everyone will just move on.
Boxing has always been a business first "sport" it's just that today theres to much business with all the federations and weight classes there's more champs than there is contenders.
