    I never claimed he wobbled Canelo but that shot was as clean as you could ask for.

    This overrating GGG is getting out of hand, now no one in history can stand toe to toe with him LOL. When he just went up against a welterweight and couldn't even wobble him, or even Knock him down.

    So much for the so-called GGG superpower, this is what happens when we have no other middle weight fighters that are any good at this time, but that's not his fault. So he knocks out a bunch of no chinned ok fighters and gets hyped up but has to fight against a welterweight as his biggest test LOL. OKAY

    We could name a handful of fighters that would not only go toe to toe but would destroy him.

    I could go on but that is enough , you should watch these fighters if you haven't.

    GGG is not the most feared, hardest hitting or the best middle weight in history, when he couldn't even wobble a welterweight in Canelo, we have a history of boxing people .
    This is what we call hype to sell tickets payper-view , to make money but none of these commentators believes the crap they are selling. They no the history of boxing and has seen these boxers in person.
    Now we have people asking would anyone go toe to toe with him LOL, freaking Disneyland society created by the media , or should I say sheep. Who believe anything told, don't look things up research it to prove it's right or wrong, dam the world we live in.

    Toney and Hagler.

    Nigel Benn would have. That guy went up against McClellan when nobody wanted to fight G man.

    Just thinking about that made me shudder. That would ave been savage as long as it lasted. That would have been a Hagler-Hearns showdown for sure.

    You guys who mentioned Gerald are right.
    GGG vs. McClellan would be violent. GM is one of the few mws that would try to bang with GGG and could actually be successful.

    Gerald McClellan would have pushed GGG around. We're talking about a guy that took a shot from Julian Jackson and just brushed it off. Not to mention the guy had real one punch KO in both hands, second to or even equal to Julian Jackson. I'd actually see McClellan stopping GGG with a body shot.

    But you gotta factor in Jackson was not natural mw, he moved up from 154 and he was chinny. A fight with GGG would be more of a war of attrition. Could most likely see McClellan leaving ggg a bloody mess and stopping him on cuts.
