    If you think Golovkin would have 1 ounce of problem with anyone on Canelo's resume you are the dumb ***** and naïve to boot.

    This is true, but isn't it hard to beat that caliber of fighter convincingly?

    Regardless, this should be the last year GGG fights at 160. I was all for GGG unifying but if the Canelos of the sport are stalling him into retirement then he needs to take control himself. This is my hope for GGG: (I realize this sounds foolish but I just want GGG to take some chances and get the legacy he deserves)
    2016: Saunders, some can, Alvarez. If he can't get Alvarez, he leaves him in the dust.
    2017: Some can at 168, Ward
    2018: Some can at a catchweight of 172ish and then Kovalev at the same catchweight.

    Let me explain... GGG is 33. I'd say he has like 2-3 more years of serious prime left. If he doesn't make a move now he'll be forgotten in 10 years. I'm basically making the same post that would have annoyed me to no end about a year ago but I really think GGG can do it. I think he'd beat Ward's A$$ and I think if he can get inside, he can take out the Krusher. And I like the Krusher too!

    Lara would cause GGG serious problems. Kirkland and GGG would be a brawl for as long as it would last and I would favor GGG. Cotto would also give GGG problems.

    Angulo would have stopped him in the first as well he had him down and hurt bad, but because Angulo isn't very smart when he dropped Kirkland in the first Angulo just went wild and started throwing a barrage of punches while Kirkland covered up in the corner he threw for almost a straight minute hitting him in the arms until he gassed and had no more power after that, and was completely exhausted at that point.

    Here's some more food for thought. About the weight divisions thing.

    Here's Floyd cherry pick Berto going 12 and being KO'd by Soto-Karass.

    Here's GGG opponent Rosado (or as many on here would idiotically say "bum") easily walking through and brutally annihilating Soto-Karass in 5 before Soto-Karass ever faced Maidana, Thurman, Alexander and Berto.

    Not necessarily, Floyd consistently beat fighters of a higher caliber than that with absolute ease as does Manny Pacquiao. Andre Ward and Sergey Kovalev are good examples as well. If Canelo was elite as many seem to think he was he would have performed against Lara far better than plodding punching bag Alfredo Angulo and spoiler Carlos Molina and to be honest he didn't.
