    The only reason this guy has a following is because he's untested and keeps fighting cans.

    Overrated.

    You may be the one overrating him if you consider the #2 contender at the weight to be "a can" in comparison.

    Geale is top 3 at 160 lbs, on anyone's rankings.

    Even GGG haters only really mention 168 lbs fighter on who beat GGG.

    MW is weak. Move up to 168. Period. MW isn't healthy right now. He needs to move up. ONE division.

    He's 32 wasting his time in a weak ass division and has been a pro over 8 years with not one signature win. He want to be king of a wasteland.

    So he should just leave one of the original show divisions for a inbetween one, instead of ruling it with 20+ defences in a row like B-Hop did?

    You are right. The reason it is so weak is because it is isolated and fragmented with none of the so-called champions wanting to unify.
    You would have thought that any of them had any greatness in them they would have at least partially unified the MW division. :yep

    but he's not a 168 lber, plus 160 is a legendary division.

    Weight classes have health cycles. in my opinion. Heavyweight and Middleweight happen to be weak right now, until a new crop of talent comes in and makes it healthy again. SMW, is pretty healthy and he can challenge himself there. BHOP's middleweight days were when the division was healthy. Keith Holmes, Felix, Taylor, theres no one like that in his division right now.

    You guys are so against him going to SMW, yet hes on record saying that he wants FMJ, Canelo at 154. Cut it out man.

    He needs to move up. BHOP wouldn't have wasted time there if there was no competition, and he moved up to LHW eventually anyway.

    GGG doesn't want to be great. simple as that.

    So what he's not a 168 pounder. Pacquiao isn't a true 147. Floyd is not a true 147. They've gone against guys that have COME IN THE RING AS SUPER MIDDLEWEIGHTS AND MIDDLEWEIGHTS. They've both fought guys who have come in the ring 165+.

    GGG doesn't even want to go up one division. But he's "great" :lol:
