    I cant think of a single man that beats a prime RJJR at 160 and that includes Robinson. He absolutely clowns GGG.

    RJJ. His movement and speed would give GGG fits. The angles he threw shots from would see GGG getting nailed hard.

    Ggg could literally ko rjj with any shot, including the jab. Rjj couldn't ever deal with that pressure, ggg would for absolute certainties get to rjj after a few rounds, max.

    The only thing is how much bigger rjj is, that's the only thing that could give his moronic fans some form of false hope.

    Lol, I don't know who gets more over rated each passing year, rjj or Tyson, both massively flawed in some of the most important areas to compete with truly great fighters.

    Not good fighters that had wars and exciting fights which makes people think they're great when the word great gets thrown around here on part with bum.

    90% of the fighters being labeled great and or bums on here are not close to what people label them

    GGG has a great chin and Roy has glass-even in his hay day.

    Roy might have a chance with a decision, but he goes down and out by the 8th round
    after tiring and getting hit too much. Good fight

    People don't realize GGG can protect himself. He's got excellent footwork, keeps his chin tucked, and covers up well. He was hit by Brook sure, but he didn't respect his power. Others like Monroe and Rosado hit him too, but with someone with pop he knows how to neutralize them.

    Doing that to RJJ is practically impossible. But I think it's clear that there's a much greater chance that GGG can take Roy's best shot than Roy can take Golovkin's. Roy would accumulate rounds based on his activity. But what about when GGG corners Roy and starts teeing off on his body to drop those hands. He could get through eventually.

    I can see both winning. It's not an easy fight for either guy. Roy did was he did to his opponents because he didn't respect them, and rightfully so. Don't you think he himself would be cautious of a guy who obliterates everyone just like he did? Surely Roy knew he had no chin, right?

    Roy would win by stoppage. Roy was too fast, and Golovkin was too slow, with poor defense. Probably a stoppage at that in a non-competitive fight.

    Lmao. You clearly don't know what your talking. RJJr was 5'10. Same as your guy. His chin wasn't shaky at 160. He wasn't getting busted up by WW and cab drivers with decent handspeed like Monroe. Roy had blistering speed and Jedi reflexes with power as well. G just has power. And quite frankly I only see g land big when he has guys against the ropes mostly. 160 Roy had fresh legs and didn't do that rope a dope stuff till later in his career against bigger opposition. Just stop.

    probably would be a mercy stoppage ie from golovkin being outclassed
