    P4P top 5, ATG? Yes he's an hype job because he's neither of those things the media have lead the gullible fans to think he is.

      Roy started at MW, tbh... he "moved up" at SMW when he was 21... a.s.o.

        Yes, because unifying a division is so unambitious

          Yes it is. Even the media that have created the hype job are bored of the c/b- level fighters at MW and more and more are wanting him to move up. What does BJS do for Golovkins resume? Nothing, he's no better than the guys already on there.

            K2 needs to find their money; and if they can't, K2 needs to sit down and let someone else put up the money.

            $1.5m, plus some unattainable upside, is an offer than can be easily refused.

                Who said an ATG except some ****** nuthuggers?

                I never heard somebody saying ATG stuff, even Freedom and all his alts lol.

                There are levels between ATG TOP 5 and bum hype job.

                Calling an amateur world champion, silver medalist and unified IBF, WBC, WBA champion an hype job is far too excessive.

                I rank GGG maybe at the 8th spot of my P4P list, just like Froch did.

                GGG in his whole boxing career (ams+pros) beat the likes of Bute, Direll, Korobov, Lee, Ouma, Brook, Murray, Lemieux.

                So I rank him higher than the Porter or Spence of the world, guys who haven't done **** in boxing compared to GGG when you dig the subject.

                  GGG started to win international ams title at 140 when he was 18.

                  Roy by the age of 21 was a 168 pro pounders while GGG was a 152 am fighter.

                    Just to say, GGG is a smaller framed guy than Roy even if they started as pros in the same division.

                    Same division but different ages.

                      Golovkin won't do that, he's a coward just as much as the people he calls cowards.
