GGG is one of the best Euro’s of this generation. His defense is masterclass. With the Brook fight he was just carrying Kell. reason GGG looks declined is because of his age, but his chin is still legendary
Golovkin was a formidable fighter at his peak but we know that he was fighting barely B class fighters when he was on his 20 stoppages in a row streak. Hagler, Hearns et al benefitted from having each other around at the same time whereas Golovkin has had Canelo and er, that's about it.
3G has been a victim of a poor era, imo.

No. Not a poor era. GGG wasn’t managed correctly. Had he been with Roach and Top Rank he could’ve had some legendary fights before 2015. he would’ve had a proper strength and conditioning coach, nutritionist, rising up the ranks and in weight, most likely GGg at his peak at 175 and bigger. Realize that in order for GGG to continue campaigning at 160 he has to sacrifice a lot.
GGG is comfortable, wealthy, so it ain’t bad at all
That Hagler weighs significantly less than Lemieux, and GGG was able to move Lemieux’s weight easily. GGg probes guys that rush in. Hagler would prefer to box with GGG or go in for the kill? GGG would be ready for any offensive assault, and GGG hit harder than Hearns.
It's called mental fortitude. Hagler was a warrior, and also technically more complete than GGG.

GGG would have been wrecked if he fought John Mugabi let along Hagler and Hearns would have done him in a round. Mayweather would have been stopped by Thomas Hearns and Julian Jackson and terry Norris.
