    Now that the dust has settled it should be clear like i said all a long....

    GGG is/ was the most overrated p4p entrant in recent years

    some had him as high as 3, others had him as #1 and they were clearly basing it on kos


    the same people who say " this fighter or that fighter has ko's over who?" should apply this logic to GGG

    Of all his fights competing with top middleweights he has not looked impressive.....2 fights with canelo, one with Jacobs could have gone either way and also Sergiy Derevyanchenko was a life and death struggle


    to this day he doesnt have a clear win over an elite or p4p guy


    winning trinkets and being elevated as champion doesnt warrant that type of hype


    eat crow Golov-tards....very good fighter just simply was never a great one or an all time great

    For some reason I am sure he was a bit ahead of you.

      GGG is solid and his fights with Canelo 1&2, Jacobs, and Dervychenko prove that. You have to give his some credit. Sure his resume before that was crap but when it was time to fight the best he actually did well. You are acting like he lost to a journey man and got exposed. Put it this way, GGG is probably still the betting favorite to anyone that is below Canelo.

      I think the majority of folks on here think he would win against the following:
      Charlo
      Andrade
      Ebanks
      BJS
      Munguia
      Derevy 2
      Jacobs 2

      But honestly he's already getting too old so maybe taking one last big fight and then mandos is good enough to retire.

        I don't do P4P nor did I ever consider Golovkin to be the best fighter in the world at any point in his career, but wherever you got Canelo, GGG can't be too far behind if we're talking how good a fighter they were regardless of weight, irrespective of actual achievements which are based just as much on opportunity as ability.

          Golovkin owns some serious real estate in A LOT of guys heads on here.

          There seems to be a GGG thread every couple days and he has no fight coming up lol

            I know it can be difficult, or at least I know that i personally have difficulty sometimes with this but, at the very end of the day, if a fight is entertaining enough, I try to not care about whether the fighter warrants all of the slurping on him he may be receiving from the commentators, promotional outfit behind him, or his fan base. Like I said, that isn't always as easy to do as it reads, but it is what some should try to do more of, maybe. Maybe not.

              This is facts. But this is facts with most fans, but with different actors in the roles.
