100% serious. today's talent pool is bigger than ever before.
the game has progressed just like with every other sport. records are made to be broken. athletes get better. it's as simple as that.
GGG is the most excellent champion in MW history. He never lost to and drew with bums unlike other MW champions of the past. and he's only fighting top 10 contenders with less than 10 losses.
There were great fighters then, they are great fighters now and they will be great fighters from the future. I love triple G but he has to show me more before a place him with the great onesComment

very long time.
here i'll logically break things down for you. The Olympics, old records do not stand. Because athletes get better, nutrition get better, talent pool becomes bigger. this is a simple fact.
back in the 70's, boxing was only an american sport(north and south). now it's a global sport with much more amateur prospects from Europe, Asia etc. This is a fact.
American boxing prospects has grown as well because the same demographics like blacks and latinos have grown in #'s. They are still broke too, so it's not like they are the ***s or Italians who are going to school to work now. Blacks are still pursuing athletics and fighting in the streets) except with better nutrition now and better skills due to better film footage to study.
the MW greats.
Hagler lost to Willie Monroe caliber of fighters in his prime. this is a fact. GGG plays with that level of talent.
Monzon lost to and drew with absolute bums. GGG doesn't do that.
2 established facts of history.
worse athletes. smaller talent pool to draw from.
all those MW greats lost to bums in their primes.
GGG is the result of the largest talent pool without any losses. Period. He is the heads on favorite against anybody in MW history.Comment
