Can we say that Golovkin is this era's Mike Tyson?

[Kigali]

GGG's resume is just as good as Tyson's imo.

Tyson's best win is Spinks. GGG's Kell win erases that. both coming up in weight. Spinks was over the hill and Kell is in his prime. Still can achieve greatness.

How many title defenses did Mike have?

the only difference is GGG didn't get bullied and KTFO by a bum like Mike was. In his prime too. GGG is no longer in prime yet STILL....

So Brook is just as good as Spinks.....

Cool story.......

Dude, wtf are you talking about? Spinks is an ATG Light heavy and he was lineal at Heavy when Tyson fought him. Stop. Never go full ******.

Brook is prime.

Spinks was over the hill. He retired, didn't he? kinda like Hatton catching Tszyu.



Brook can very well become great. He still has potential.

You are fooking kidding me, right?

Do you guys it's just huge punching power that gets the job done?

Golovkin is without a shadow of a doubt of the most skilled fighters in the game, if not THE most skilled fighter.

Offensive isn't skills? Footwork isn't skills? Fluid combinations? Creating openings? Great punching power off either hand, of different punches? Fantastic body punches? Perfect balance? A jab that nullifies and also breaks eye sockets?

What the fooking hell do you consider skills?

Oh, I forgot. Skills is speed and being able to fight off the back foot and being defensively savvy.

Golovkin doesn't have skills

Only on NSB

Never said he had NO SKILLS...just not all these GREAT SKILLS some posters claim he has..He is a decent fighter with good balance and power..but he is no super talent in my opinion

Also at the end of the his career.

NOT PRIME.

GGG is the most exciting fighter right now like mike tyson was in his days, that is the truth

differece is fighters in tysons time had balls unlike this era so full of pampered babies like canelita

If Canelo is pampered then GGG must be something 10x's worse.


There is nothing exciting about watching total mismatches where the outcome is already known.

he has more skills than Tyson.


he can fight backing up like vs Lemiueux. Show me a fight Tyson won backing up. Holyfield pushed him back and he was clueless.

GGG had a much better amature career than Tyson. Amatuer is skills

GGG conserves energy. He has KO power late and does not fade.


GGG has a longer reign than Tyson.


GGG has better mental faculty than Tyson.

GGG never got dominated in his prime and KTFO by a bum like Tyson was.


All facts.

[Kagami Taiga]

Also at the end of the his career.

NOT PRIME.

Even that not prime Spinks is greater than beating a unproven Welterweight at middleweight. No matter how you slice it. There is no comparison.

Brook is prime.

Spinks was over the hill. He retired, didn't he? kinda like Hatton catching Tszyu.



Brook can very well become great. He still has potential.

A shot Spinks is still better than Kell Brook.

Stop trying to build up Brook because he's on GGG's comical resume.

Brook can't beat enough people to become great.
He stands a snowball's chance in hell at 154.

Let's say I give you that one.


Tyson was also bullied and KTFO by a d level bum. Since GGG does not have such an atrocity on his resume in his prime. He is already greater imo.

He's also had a longer title run than Tyson.
