This one is hard to call tbh because all I can really go off of with Golovkin is him wrecking everything he gets in the ring with and none of them have been Geralds caliber. McClellan was a bona fide bad mfer and if I was forced to pick I would go with Golovkin just because he has the skill set to box Gerald. Its been years since I watched a McClellan fight but if memory served he was just a really skilled destroyer and fckn mean. Its a one of those fights that could go either way really. If Golovkin has anything less than a granite chin he might get taken out early. I dont see McClellan going down early though just because of the way I think Golovkin would try and deal with him. It would be a fantastic fight though.
G-Man on this one, he hit harder and was a big MW with a steel chin, Golovkin would not win a fire fight and outboxing him would be hard with McClellan having a great jab to go along with his height and reach advantages.
It's a shame what happened in the Benn fight, should really have been a first round KO victory but no amount of toughness can stop a brain injury.
