    Jones UD-12. Possibly wins every round.

    And that doesn't mean GGG can't fight.

    RJJ wins by UD.
    If there's quality drugtesting in place it will be overturned to a NC later.

    This has already been done to death by the way.

    tight fight, but you cant rule against jones, who has so many elite scalps across several weight divisions.

    3G has a single elite draw.

    Not sure Jones can make weight anymore.

    RJJ too big too fast too accurate, but there's too little input on his punch resistance at MW since he spent so little time there. He was also young and not quite fulfilled, I think draining less helped his overall athleticism at higher classes.

    That said, he UDs prime GGG 7 fights out of 10 and prime GGG cuts him down and gets to the chin 3 times, and we know how that turns into a result. All predictions based on both fighters being cleared by random drug testing.

    GGG is really really good. Probably great. Most likely gonna be in the HOF and I'm rooting for him vs Canelo in September but RJJ UDs him.
    I wouldn't pick anyone except Spinks or Foster over 1993-1999 Jones.
    Gene Tunney and bob fitzsimmons too probably but that's going way back and based more on their rep than footage.

    Jones is the natural choice because of his skills and outrageous speed. That said, Golovkin is a technically complete fighter with a great chin and great power. I would in no way write him off and I think its possible that he might even crack Jones' chin at some point.

    RJJ by a comfy points win for me but, as others have mentioned, Golovkin is no pushover and could very well stop him.

    RJJ makes GGG quit the sport after the clinic he would put on him.

    Based on him been KO’d before (yes, no need to say anything, I know, and still...) and Golovkin always being on front foot, pushing and looking to punish his opponents. Their fight would go that much different from any other GGG fight apart from RJJ outlanding him and making him look slow.
