Could GGG at this point ever become a 2 division unified champ?

[Rock&Roll]

well, maybe he would just make everyone fight him at 161.

A-side bidness doe

lol

Snuck that one in handily

There's quantity, but no quality. All B-level guys. Gotta wait and see for Zurdo. Fighting cans won't help him.

LHW by comparison has two A-level fighters, arguably four, and a crazy amount of contenders.

LHW is better certainly but I don't think GGGs frame can take him that high.

Depends if the champs duck him then no.

Correct....otherwise he could clean out 154...finish up 160...blow thru 168...and still have time for a title at 175

[SplitSecond]

Depends on whether he could walk down a Callum Smith, De Gale/Groves or Dirrel brother. Barring Callum, (who I'm not overly sold on) they've all tasted defeat. Would he carry the same power up from 160?. Eubank Jr seemed to lose power but then you look at Crawford & Loma who seem to have gained 'pop' climbing the ranks.

There's potential for him to do so but he's getting old!.

Because those guys were big for previous weight classes. Golovkin will for sure lose power at 168. He'll lose a lot and be at a disadvantage vs everyone. Abraham was massive at 160 and would kill himself, Roy Jones is a juicer and would show up at 180lbs on fight night at middleweight. Golovkin shows up around 168. At super-middleweight he'll be shorter, slower, lighter and not the have same punch but can compete just on skills. 168 is his limit.

Can he move up to 168 and unify titles?

I don't think so. I don't think he has enough time. He's ****ing around trying to get the Canelo fight and fooling around with 154 lbers. Boxing is all about money now and lining up fights when you aren't that much of a draw makes it harder. And he's not that young. I also don't think his team is interested despite what they say, they're looking to cash him out and it's not easy given his lack of drawing power.

[BoxingFan85]

He can & has the skills.. When seems to be the bigger question..

[Chrismart]

I feel he could. Looking at the champions there, possible future champs, guys taking part in eliminators..i'd give GGG the nod over some of them.

I don't think we will see it pan out though. I've got a feeling GGG vs Canelo will happen, but down the line. I see GGG sticking around 160 waiting for that fight which would limit the time factor for a run at SMW.

degale is too slick for him
