How would you honestly rate Golovkin?

[KingHippo]

Charlo vacated and moved up to face your lord and saviour, don't you ever forget that.

There was nothing noble about it. Its money and weight. Canelo moved up because he couldn't make weight. The prospect of fighting some one like Charlo after he struggles to cut weight was a big problem for him. Ironically at Middleweight he doesn't have as much concern about weight cutting. So take off his halo and give him a good kick in the ass for daring to be irresponsible and screwing up the rematch..

Didn't know fanatic rage robbed people of their ability to read.

Ok then, GGG haters (you, for example) dispute that. there's plenty of those. Success breeds hate. There's nothing to not like about GGG but his skin tone.

quote me saying i hate ggg.


he ran through every bum with ease and fought even with the 2 good fighters he fought. thats not hate. thats a fact

you dudes get gayer and gayer by the day. since when does the truth equal dislike.

you dudes are actually in love with men and its ridiculous. this is a boxing forum. everybody has different opinions on fighters. but the truth cannot be disputed.

[Graz]

We can all agree that Golovkin, Jacobs and Charlo (Jermall) are great fighters. If either of the latter two had Golovkin’s record not one criticism would be rendered by many on this forum. Crickets.....The reason?

heres some facts about mr golovkins resume dip**** before the jacobs and canelo fights

He has faced only three undefeated opponents in his career
the caliber of undefeated opponents is pretty tame. In 2009, Golovkin defeated Mikhail Makarov who was 10-0 at the time. Makarov retired 12-1 with a non-descript career.

The third unblemished opponent he faced was Kell Brook a welterweight

He acquired his titles from the likes of Milton Nunez (interim WBA title), Lajuan Simon (IBO), Marco Antonio Rubio (interim WBC) and David Lemieux (IBF)

Macklin beaten by jaime moore long before golovkin what an ATG

Rubio lost to goddam Julio Cesar Chavez Jr who was likely stoned out of his mind before facing golovkin

you know what im not even gonna waste anymore time trying to talk to you you are a casual fan take that username down trying to legitamize his resume before he fought jacobs and canelo lol gtfo of here

Oh no, he put the ole' spin on it lol!

I already said what needed to be said about his competition. 6 out of his last ten fights was against top 5 fighters and he beat the 2nd and 3rd best in the division behind him. Who else should he fight you garbage a55 twit?

GTFOH! Hating fkn idiot!

Jealousy is the reason. The root cause of the jealousy is up for speculation.

There are a lot of legitimate reasons to hate Golovkin. What I hate the most about him is his unwillingness to fight outside of his division. Most of the people I rooted for in my life are multiple division champs, unless they're heavyweights. I also hate how risk averse he is and how he's always looking for an advantage, like when he tried to drain Ward to 164 instead of directly ducking him and would't even give Kell Brook a catch weight when they fought.

I hate how overrated he is as well. Only looked dominant because of the trash opposition he's faced. He was barely able to sc**** by a non p4p fighter in Jacobs and a smaller fighter facing his first actual middleweight in Canelo. And then there's the fans, easily the most biased, hypocritical, insecure and ignorant fanbase to ever curse the sport.

White fighters like Usyk who completely picked apart elite competition and Lomachenko who are always up for a challenge are the types I respect. Golovkin is, and will always be, an overrated two faced camping b1tch in my book.

Thanks for letting everyone here know that you're a complete joke. Go get a life and some perspective. Two faced?!?! Hating a boxer who's trying to break a division record?!?!?! lol!!!!!! You big fkn twit!

[Irony123]

So there is this fighter, who has one of the longest knockouts streaks, undefeated, controlled 3 out of 4 major belts, fought the best fighters in his division over the better part of the decade. only on NSB a fighter with such a description could fall under the B+ category... imagine how hard it is to be A or A+, I would suspect that in the history of the sport only 2-3 fighters made the A or A+ rating.

You don't have to come out and say it to be a hater......fkn duh!

And GG hasn't lost IDK what the fck you're talking about. A win is a fkn win.

[DreamFighter]

He still fighting, many think He won against canelo and if he wins against canelo(on record) you will still say is because canelo is no longer on peds..

you have no idea what I would say, dont presuppose me, that just shows your argument is floundering if you need to put word in my mouth.

I agree that hes not finished yet, he can as yet underline his elite status or more.

[DreamFighter]

What is your definition of elite? What is your definition of world class?

an elite is notch above world, who can beat all but other elite.

world class means you can contend, from failed contenders at the fringe to fulfilled ones with the titles at the top, who are often elites themselves.

My examples would be: Trinidad's victory over DLH (as controversial as that may be). Hopkins defeat of Tito. RJJ victory over Toney and probably Hopkins too (though Hops was still early in his career).

no theyw ere more than elite, those were victories over HoF/ATG.

You can throw in Buster beating Tyson and probably Rahman's W over Lennox.

again thats a notch above elite. Thats the next tier. Lennox and tyson were ATG/HOF
