    That's how good he is his punching power is so much that it could really make the difference at 175

    He had kovalev out on his feet in sparring knocked him down

    He routinely drops heavyweights in sparring

    countless other heavyweights who sparred him said he hits harder then heavyweights

    He could probably beat someone like Oosthuizen,Mohammedi
    or Eleider Alvarez maybe even Ward if he lands a lucky punch but no chance vs the top guys Stevenson, Beterbiev and Kovalev they are too big and powerfull.

    He would easily get KO'd at light heavyweight. He isn't walking through power shots from Stevenson or Kovalev.

    He dropped Kovalev with a body shot, when Kovalev was out of shape and was just beginning camp for his next fight, when GGG was just finishing up his. Knock that s*** off.

    GGG could probably beat the lineal champ at LHW by KO, but no one else.

    The guy takes punches from legit heavyweights and has respect from them countless heavyweights spoke on how hard he hits and how tough he is whats a light weight compared to a heavyweight?

    Kovalev knows more then anyone how hard GGG hits he was out on his feet and also knocked out

    He'd definitely beat Braehmer but I wouldn't class him as world champion. I'd fancy his chances against Stevenson but would have to pick Kovalev to beat him.

    GGG is to skillful and hits to hard for someone like Stevenson

    GGG knocks down heavyweights and takes their shots in sparring

    kovalev would be very interesting his the only guy who could take GGG into a full war


    Kovalev really respects how good GGG is

    He said nowhere that he was out on his feet, he was a young fighter new to the sport, and inexperienced at the level, and out of shape, GGG had been a pro for 4 or 5 years at the time, Kovalev is a completely different animal right now and has accomplished more in his 5 year career than GGG has in 10. So take your trumped up by Abel Sanchez propagandistic stories and jerk off all you want to them, but doesn't change the fact that Kovalev would murder GGG in the ring if the fight happened.

    GG is overrated, and he never dropped Kovalev. The 34 year old GG will be hit one day, and on that day there will be a massive Exodus off of his bandwagon. Kostya Tszyu, Joey Gamache, Wlad and many others tried to avoid punchers until they couldn't anymore and got ktfo. We will find out what GG is all about the minute he is caught.

    It would be interesting to see him fight someone like Oosthuizen before tackling the other guys.

    GGG has poor defense. He is not a very smart fighter. Ward would embarass him. Kovalev would kill him. Literally.

    Hell Crawford would give him the beat down of his life.

    No sh*t. Stevenson holds a title there and he has an atrocious glass jaw. GGG stops him with the pawed range finder jab.

    He could probably win a title at Heavyweight too if he went after Wilder.

    Like you jumped on the Broner bandwagon the minute he beat up a woman, then off it when he lost to journeyman Maidana :lol::lol::lol:
