GGG still has Charlo, Canelo, Saunders and Andrade to beat up. I don't see the decline maybe cuz I never held him to a high standard cuz all I ever saw was a punching bag with insane power. His power imo was his defense, you feel one punch and cover up or throw "stay away from me" punches like most of his opponents did. The key now is to not cover up or try to run but to actually duck and GGG misses alot. A slight head movement confuses him.
I also saw alot of his fights from as far back as 2008 so this "off prime" GGG is shocking to me when I hear such. Watch the Rosado fight, you will barely see a difference except for opponents' reaction when they get hit.
Moreover there is barely anything he does best that can be easily deminished with age of 36 and no wars. He still has insane stamina and power, never was an athletic jumper like Pacquiao and cutting off the ring does not really fade with age. So where does that leave us? Quality of opponents.

Golovkin lost 3-4 years of his career he'll never get back chasing Canelo sniffing his ass for a payday. He can still make up for it by focusing on being undisputed then moving up to 168-175 for bigger scalps.

1. Jacobs
2. Lemmy
3. Murray
4. Geale
5. Brook
Decent. Solid. That's the best way to describe it. A solid resume. And GGG will soon break Hopkins defense record. That will be a historical moment. He just needs to stop obsessing over Canelo that's the main thing I'm critical of.
