    Broner and Matthysse were each insanely hyped at the peak of their powers. Neither lived up to it

      It doesn't matter if he beats "everyone put in front of him" if the guys put in front of him are of lesser quality than other fighters have beat.

        Lesser quality how so? Like i said...including all middleweight beltholders. That would suggest he beat fighters considered no.1 by each sanctioning body in his division. Thats how you become number 1. Who is daniel jacobs lesser quality than other than ggg? Same with lemeiux....or geale

          He beat all MW beltholders? He was given the WBA and WBC titles. He won the IBF off a fighter that won the vacant title in his previous fight. Saunders has the WBO title.

          Lots of fighters have much better wins than Golovkin has, he doesn't deserve to be top 5 P4P.

              Since you seem to like stats take some more from
              Marvin Haglers resume.
              His 31st fight was against the legend DC Walker with the amazing record of 2-11-1
              His 33rd fight was against the one and only George Davis with the impressive record of 11-17-1
              His 35th fight was against the ATG Reggie Ford with the distinguished record of 0-1-0
              His 39th fight was against the HOFamer Jim Henry with the monumental record of 11 26 3
              And last but not least his 45th fight was against the monster and world beater Willie Warren with the unreal record of 44 38 3....
              IT SEEMS BROOK AT LEAST FOUGHT MUCH LESS BUMS AND AT MUCH EARLIER STAGE IN HIS CAREER THAN THE MARVELOUS HUH???
              Hagler what a bum im sure you agree according to your logic

              A lot of people were calling him the best welter in the world including me and the Ring magazine and he probably was.

                Only Ward has better wins than Golovkin and most of them are stinky.
                Except for Canelo and Kovalev who have resumes nearly equal to GGGs nobody else is anywhere near him right now in boxing.
