Is Gennady Golovkin an all time great?

[THEFRESHBRAWLER]

His fans will say he’s an atg because he had x amount of title defenses lol

[Redsox]

not even close

[siablo14]

He beat Canelo

[boliodogs]

I think he will be remembered as an all time great. 20 successful title defenses and 22 KO wins in a row should do that for him. His best wins would be Jacobs and Canelo twice although he didn't officially get the Canelo wins.

HOF'er yes, ATG...probably not in the eyes of most. Had that 2nd Canelo fight been scored for Golovkin as I thought it should have, that may have changed a lot of the general opinion

Yes they will and what's wrong with that? Do you prefer boxers who don't have many successful title defenses? He has tons of fans worldwide even if he is so hated on this board. They will remember him as great. He certainly has done much more at middleweight than any other middleweight in many years.

Yes, an atg fighting bums

Your favorite Ginger only managed to score 1 single point over GGG in 24 rounds with biased paid off judges...

In 2 fights a bug majority of the public and media had GGG winning.

[Pigeons]

The only thing Golovkin cares about is fighting Canelo. Wasted his entire career chasing a junior middleweight who he hasn't beaten through two tries.

[TonyGe]

An ATG no. A great fighter in the middleweight division.. Absolutely. To be an ATG he needs to beat Canelo definitively and beat Jacobs again by KO. Then possibly move up and beat a credible SM champ at 168 not a catch weight. I've never been a fan of Championship matches at catchweights. Is that going to happen? Probably not.

[Vlad_]

Absolutely not, his most notable win is Jacobs and IMO he should’ve lost that fight and he’s refused to give Jacobs a rematch! Smh

Canelo exposed him as a basic up and down fighter with no special effects!

GGG whopped Jacobs, dropped him and turned him into an allergic looking Hitch. Jacobs fell unto the ropes in exhaustion at the final bell. And then he looked like garbage in his two post GGG fights.

Canelo only managed to score 1 single point over GGG in 24 rounds with biased paid off judges.

Very basic though...
