Comparing Golovkin and Spence... Math

[satiev1]

Comparing the career paths of the two is insane and ******ed. Spence is an american bred fighter who had the right promoters and managers from the start. He was groomed to be a star in america. NOT GGG.

the ultimate fantasy post! pick some arbitrary starting point in order to prove a guy much less proven is actually better or going to be better than a guy who is currently way more accomplished. lets compare loma to everyone in boxing history...well hes on pace to be best ever!

He is 35, and going to 36 this April.

Golovkin was the ''boogieman'' ever since he beat Tapia in 2010, yet he wasn't the Super WBA Champ. How come it took the WBA 4 years to enforce a mando with Geale? Or rather, how come K2 didn't push for the mando after a year or two? That all dates to 2010-2011. It's 2018. Golovkin was 28 in 2010...

Saul Alvarez will be 28 after Charlo this year.

Is Nelo prime now?

Camelot is still improving so no

If Spence was born in Kazakhstan like GGG where do you think he would stand right now? He would be lucky to have a regular job since he was pretty average as an amateur fighter and would have never gotten the chance to turn pro.

Interesting comparison. Question. Why compare a WW and a MW who have no connection to each other whatsoever? Spence is fortunate to be in a division that has been red hot for several years including now, while MW has just started to get interesting within the past year or so. There's more quality wins to be had as a WW than a MW.

Anyway I like the pace Spence is going and I hope to see more of him soon and hope he becomes big.

You really need to read a post properly before you answer to it.

I said that those are the 4 best guys Golovkin had beat through his first 23 fights, not through his entire career.

My point is that Spence is making progress at a much faster rate, which no one would be able to rationally deny.

Golovkin left his old management team Universum for that very reason. His career wasn't progressing. He couldn't get fights against the top guys. So he left them joined K2 and moved to the States.

Seriosly, people in here whine too much...

[Robbie Barrett]

Golovkin was being crowned an ATG and P4P top 3 when his best win was Martin Murray. Golovkin was way more hyped. Spence already has better wins than Golovkin.


WW Brook >>>>> Jacobs
Peterson >>>>>> Lemieux

You're gonna get some teenage wrists cutted by writing such harsh truths...

Danny Jacobs and Canelo are better than anyone on Spence's resume
