    Golovkin's next 10 fights? How would you rank him then?

    With all the love and hate that GGG gets on here, what would all of you say if he was to fight these guys and win in his next 10 fights.
    1. Jacobs
    2. BJS
    3. Eubank
    4.Canelo
    5.Canelo 2
    6 Ramirez
    7. Chavez Jr.
    8. Ward
    9. Kovalev
    10. Beterbiev

    If he were to win all of these fights. Now how would you rank his resume? Be honest. There are some Floyd nutt huggers who will never give him credit and there are some Golovkin fans who will swear he is better than Sugar Ray Robinson. Be objective here.

    i remember there were threads back in the day saying if Pac beat Cotto/DLH, he would be considered top 3 ATG.

    Paulie Malinaggi came out himself and said if Pac beats Cotto, he would consider him the best ever. this is on video.




    Then what happened when Pac won? LMAO. The point is, haters are manginas. they are women scorned. they have more emotional turmoil than logic.

      It depends on where those men are at the time of the fights after Canelo dude. If Kov, Ward and Beterbiev have all been beaten badly and/or lost multiple times then those wins will be judged far different then if they happened today while they are all close to prime and undefeated. Chavez is a bum and that will not elevate him at all.

          If he did all that he would be climbing up those great rankings but I don't think GGG will go anywhere near Ward, Kovalev or Beterbiev. Remember all that Roy Jones Jr achieved so he certainly shouldn't be higher than him unless he earns it.

            That ain't happening. I suspect if he unifies 160 he will immediately vacate & go to 168 & challenge the unified champion (it's likely there will be one by that stage, not a fully unified 168 but partially!) & then retire. Legacy cemented at 160.

              I think he atleast tries to fight Ward and or Kovalev. He had success against Kovalev in sparring and it will help him there. Plus Ward is not a big puncher either.

                Chavez may not be great but if he is motivated it would earn GGG laot of money.

                  I honestly don't see him going up to 175 to face the bigger guys, but he should win all of the top 7 in your list:

                  :

                  1. Jacobs
                  2. BJS
                  3. Eubank
                  4. Canelo
                  5. Canelo 2
                  6 Ramirez
                  7. Chavez Jr.

                  Except i don't see Golovkin fighting Canelo twice is getting him any credit other than $$, rest all are MW & above so they are all a good victory, Canelo - people will still cry he was not a MW

                    Canelo has been a middleweight for about 3 years now. Plus Canelo has the counterpunching style and some power to make the fight intersting and to make some excuse after he loses to get a rematch for big money.
