How far apart do you feel Golovkin and Saunders are in resume?

    This wasn't about who you think is better but about win resumes

    Look man, I’ll help you answer your thread. GGGs entire career rides on what Canelo does despite losing to him. In truth their resumes are pretty much the same but nobody wants to mention it because they’re sexually aroused by GGG.

    Lil G’s resume is superior.

    It's interesting that you find their resumes similar. I think they are fairly close
    I think if pushed I would have GGGs resume higher but was saying that win resume wise, that I felt it was fairly close.
    Saying that instantly had people jumping, thinking I had an agenda and in some cases appearing defensive

    You put their records side by side Lil G is superior. Who was the guy Billy Jane Saunders beat to win the WBO Super Middleweight title Isufi or something? Says it all really.

    It's not about putting their records aside. It's about win resumes
    I think GGG won an interim originally and was made champ. Could be wrong
    As said it's not about who you think is the better fighter


    Edit

    I misread your post slightly

    I did put 5 of their wins side by side and said change them according to what you think
    When I put what I think some would consider top 5 for each, they didn't look far apart

    Not sure who ginger is that he beat
    On his official record he has a draw and loss to Alvarez though

    Hey, look, even if you are biased towards Saunders it's still a legit question to ask. Too many posters just fall into line with accepted thinking and toe the line.

    Ryder is actually a good win but then again that was years ago, Eubank...nothing special...sullivan is nothing special. Andy lee is a good win but thats all really. GGG is miles better as ive proved and Golovkin got robbed in those last 2 fights with Clenelo we all know he won them.

    They are far apart. Don’t forget a past his prime GGG beat Canelo. It was a robbery.

    I think people fall into line as well

    Can't see why you think I'm biased to Saunders when I said I think GGGs resume is greater even if not vastly and that I think GGG is the greater fighter?
