Lets not call GGG a bum, or SHOT when Nelo beats him...

So name us more active boxers at the peak of their careers over the age of 35.....Wait....Wait

 

Never disappoint!

 

Of course he's past prime, he's freaking 35.

 

Fact remains, GGG "was not looking human" cause he was fighting nondescript opposition. It happens to all fighters, you increase the level of competition and they begin to look less superhuman. And this is not a knock on GGG, he's my favorite fighter but fans need to stay grounded.

 

everyone is different. 37 for some guys and most guys is getting older, and he has been in some fights.

 

He is already under suspicion of being shot or on the verge of being shot after his questionable performance against Jacobs.

 

Klitscho was losing fights by KO when he was in his twenties. Against Corry Sanders when he was 27 and against Lamon Brewster when he was 28. In stark contrast, didn't lose a single fight until he was 39 just four months from being 40.

 

Hops is a freak of nature can't count him.

 

Well no one could call him a bum and he isn't shot but I would imagine he isn't as good as he was a couple of years ago...

He is 35 years old so best case he would be right at the end of his prime.... You gotta give the guy credit for even taking the fight, many wouldn't.

 

If the Fight was 2 or 3 Years ago it would have ended very quickly....but now it has evened up a bit....I criticised Canelo for handing over His belt...could prove to be a very smart move....

 

I agree with this, C. But what i meant was not that "Gennadi wasnt looking human," meaning he was looking superhuman. What i wrote was that he wasnt looking as human as he did in previous years because he hadnt impressed in awhile. Question: do you believe he is as good now as he was 4 years ago? I dont due to how he looks these days. Do you?

 

I dont think hes shot, but i dont think he looks as good as he did 4 years ago. Whats ur take on it?

 

GGG is an A-level fighter and 4 years ago he was fighting C(maybe B)-level fighters. He has stepped it up recently and his performances have suffered a little but most of it, IMO, have to do with the level of opponent. GGG is physically not in his prime but is still as good(at least very close to) as he was back then. He has not been in too many wars.

 

To me, quite frankly, hes looking more hittable and slower now than he did several years ago. He manhandled a good fighter in Lemieux, but a couple years later, looked good, not great against a good fighter in Jacobs that was blasted out by Pirog. In my opinion, he just doesnt look as good.

 

Everybody has a bad night. GGG did not perform well in his last fight against Jacops generates a bunch of critics and doubtful from boxing fans around the globe. If he had knocked out Jacops, Canelo would not have dared to challenge GGG to fight him.
