    how would you rank GGG if ...

    he beats the following guys in 2017

    March: Jacobs
    June: Saunders
    September: Jacobs II
    December: Charlo

    where would these wins put him on your p4p list? would he finally get props and silence doubters?

    I might criticize GGG from time to time but I respect his level of activity. that's real old school sht. these guys nowadays only fight twice a year which is lame as hell.

    would becoming undisputed and breaking Hopkins record help him surpass Hagler, who's considered by many the GOAT of 160?

    That would be a pretty incredible year. In contention for #1 p4p, depending what happenes with Ward/Kovalev.
    Lets face it though, he's only fought 4 times in a year once in the past 7 years or so. The stars would have to align for this to happen.

      Probably the likely scenario in December would be a Jacobs Rematch. if he beats Jacobs in the rematch then its p4p no.1 for him, unless Ward or Kovalev beat each other decisively or Pacquiao either bearts a Vasyl Lomachenko or Terrence Crawford.

        He has to beat Charlo, BJS (just because of the belt) and Canelo to cement his shot at getting in Hall of Fame. I'd say Eubank Jr. and Lara too, but he ain't got enough time for that being 35

        You either fight 4 times with bums every year or you can get only 2 fights with boxers of a good caliber, that's how it works. There's nothing much to respect about it if the opposition is horrible

            It doesn't matter, since some people say Charlo is great, Golovkin has to beat him just to silence them

            For me, he's not achieved anything at 160 but if some people say he's good, then Golovkin needs that win

              A little higher than he is now. I have never rated any of those guys highly. Jacobs impressed me and did much better than I expected, but a rematch win won't move the needle significantly for me.

                  ...and he hasn't even fought at mw. It could end up being the toughest opponent out of the 3 tho.
