    It'd be pretty shocking but not the biggest upset in history or anything like that, nowhere near, at the end of the day GGG isn't a proven product yet.

    Yeah, that's why I ask. Hard to gauge but definitely huge.

    unless Jennings beat Wlad or Mayweather were to lose to anyone not Pacquiao

    GGG may not be proven enough for all time ratings and head to head but he is proven enough in this era as far as im concerned given how easily he has dismantled fighters who have given his contemporaries much tougher goes

    he should not lose this fight

    A KO or wide UD would be huge, an SD or MD would be surprising but not a huge shocker. After all it's Murray, not a random cab driver.

    Pretty huge.

    Certainly by T/KO... the idea of that happening is pretty laughable in this fight.

    On the scale of Tyson-Douglas.

    Nah, that one is kinda unreachable... It's in the top 3 of all sports events upsets ever.

    It would be huge to me since I'm convinced that Golovkin is elite but to boxing in general it would be big but not that big since Golovkin isn't proven yet
