you may be right, thank you - depends on whether he fought Geale for the vacant title OR was handed it before the fight.

take your pick, gifted title or vacant.

GGG is on 20

It’s silly to say Geale was the Super, he was running from GGG. Only to come back later. No one but GGG haters at the time thought Geale was the better true Champ. To me that **** matters, because Bixing is a game of keep always.

To make it even more complicated Golovkin on saturday will be defending the exact same belt that Monzon and Hopkins won which is the original WBA World Middleweight Champion belt. The WBA Super belt is the newest that didnt exist back then. If Golovkins WBA belt is not legitimate you can argue that Monzons and Hopkins belt is not legitimate neither or you can say that Golovkins WBA Super belt is superior to Monzons and Hopkins WBA and therefor even with less defenses hes achieved more by simply winning superior belts.

the WBA belt has always been legit. THE belt,. not invented secondary WBA ones.

prime Geale would be a handful for GGG, tough call.

I am one of those.....

and the reason why is because the following statement is wrong



" something " is not good enough

the IBO intercontinental champ is defending " something " lol

Why is Cliff Rold scared to cite real facts? Is he afraid of Loeffler or Pugmire to retaliate? Sure its Gennady’s “WBA defense” but why do they casually include the regular WBA defenses when there were already Super Champs? It’s to say “Thurman was really the champ but so was Floyd?”

The invented is the Super not the one Golovkin won.

nono theres only one, golovkin didnt win it until geale.

theres only one world, thus one world title from any body. unless you live in 2, if you do let us know how you do.

Kind of amused how all these Golovkin threads seem to trigger some people.

Bottom line, it seems the haters (of whoever) are the only ones who really give a toss about all these mythical comparisons of the alphabet variety.
