    He's an atg in my eyes which is all that matters. It's impossible for him to be an atg to you, you've been on a hate campaign as long as I've known of you.

    You saying he could become on means even you don't believe the **** you type, simply trolling ggg 24/7/365 it's like your career

    Look at Golovkin's resume bro. Its that simple. Marco Antonio Rubio, a career JrMW with many losses who had been KTFO, who moved up when he was too old and too past prime to make weight at 154.

    Willie Monroe and Dominic Wade. Who are they, how much experience prior to getting KTFO by GGG?

    Curtis Stevens.. LOL

    Glen Tapia.. LOL

    Daniel Geale got KTFO far easier by little Miguel Cotto.

    David Lemieux had been KTFO by Rubio, and outboxed by Alcine. LOL

    The ever so STRONG MW division... GTFO!! GGG's era at MW was weak as hell, possibly one of the weakest.

    he's already an all-time great. doesn't he have the record for mw champion consecutive ko's or defenses or something like that?

    once he pounds that little boy canelo right on his forehead he'll get the due that he already deserved anyway.

    ATG? No, his career is not over yet. But it would be a hell of a good win if GG can beat Canelo right now when he's absolutely peaking, but I highly doubt he can.

    Golovkin would have to beat more than one Canelo type fighter to be considered an ATG.

    We know he'll be an ATG with or without Canelo's scalp.

    # of defenses and length of title reign.

    He's already in the history books as one of the all-time great MW's. Canelo can add to his legacy, but in no way does GGG "need" Canelo on his resume to be an ATG. That's in the rear view mirror for him.

    No. He has a long way to go before he cracks the top 100.
