Is GGG now the most accomplished, one-division fighter?

[Beercules]

Rod Salka at 135 was pretty accomplished.

Golovkin doesn't want it with the Lighting Rod.

Yeah I agree with you right now Gennady is probably the only hands down king of a division since Crawford moved up

You might. Be able to throw In Rungsai for what he’s done in the last year and maybe that Thai guy who’s 50-0 ( I wouldn’t know I don’t follow that division )

But yeah right now there isn’t many clear cut #1s holding down their division

Yeah, I think the Thai guy holds one of the belts and has made some defenses but hasn't tried to unify or anything.

And I agree. Rungsai could very well be the man in his class. He's earned it without question.

... like everybody else, GGG was after big money fights...

... back in 2013 when he said "anybody at 154-168" he only meant Floyd (at 154), Chavez Jr. and Froch (at 168)... back then, neither Canelo nor Ward were "big money" fights... (please note: Ward never provided a big money fight, except for himself)...

No boxer fighting today has been a champion for as long as he has. No boxer fighting today has made as many successful title defenses as he has. He is the man at middleweight. He will stay at 160 and continue to kick ass and his cry baby haters will call him names for not moving up in weight. They hope naturally bigger men might beat him.

[DreamFighter]

a king is someone who you would say dominates the division. In this case thats the one who has the most titles - which means GGG since he unified with Lemieux (2015).

So hes been king at MW since 2015. Good going

Well, it seems like to me that this has had a positive effect on the division. With only two recognized champions in GGG and Saunders, we have Danny Jacobs, Jermall Charlo, Derevyanchenko, Canelo, and Andrade among other known guys looking for a shot. The division's talent is swelling and well, sooner or later, these guys will have to fight each other. I think the impact of having one champion in a division heats it up. I'm glad he has stayed around and often, I wish other fighters would do the same.

Let’s not talk crazy

Is he the King currently at MW , yes

Was the division weak as f.uck for years , yes

Is his resume relatively thin , f.uck yeah

You can’t say he’s the most accomplished when he’s fought a limited amount of past / current / future world champions and has only 1 future HOf on his resume

Absolutely 100% this!

[HanzGruber]

His best win is kell brook and Danny Jacobs. I’m gonna go out on a limb and say no

[Make U Cry]

Couldn't get a win vs a guy moving up (Canelo), got a gift vs Jacobs, now he's the GOAT? Shelovekin fans make me laugh.
