Exactly how many defenses does TripleG have?

[Illmatic94]

this is a comment from DreamFighter I found interesting.

""it starts with Geale (or without, since they fought FOR a title that noone had won ie they werent taking the title from anyone). IBO doesnt count to anyone other than IBO.

It should read from Geale onwards -

Marco Antonio Rubio (59-6-1, 51KOs)
Martin Murray (29-1-1, 12KOs)
Willie Monroe Jr (19-1-0, 6KOs)
David Lemieux (34-2-0, 31KOs)
Dominic Wade (18-0-0, 12KOs)
Kell Brook (36-0-0, 25KOs)
Daniel Jacobs (32-1-0, 29KOs)

Also add Canelo, since a draw is a successful defence.


GGG has 8 defenses.""

8

or

20 ??

lil g is a fake....that is all.

[DreamFighter]

10 or 9 depending on if they awarded him the belt after facing gealeor before.

i think he was awarded it before,but its a bit unclear. so 10.

Defences of what?

[Mammoth]

Defences of what?

His titles......

If you count the WBA regular title defenses then 20. If you don't count those defenses then 8.

Should be 15, from when Geale was stripped of the "Super" title.

but then the debate would be opened as to when...it seems wrong that someone can just be awarded a belt without a bout.

Nevertheless this is what appears to have happened with GGG.

Neither of you have a clue what you are talking about. GGG wasn't awarded any title for beating Geale. The WBA just changed the name of the title he already held.

They can make their "super" titles appear or disappear whenever it suites them, just by changing their own rules.

Golovkin has 20 defences. Stop crying and deal with it.

Golovkin wasnt awarded anything, he was the Regular champion, Geale got stripped of the "Super", so Golovkin was just the sole WBA champion, defended it 5 times and was upgraded to Super
