    This is the drawer Golovkin belongs to imo, pretty good fighters both of these guys...

    Don't tell me Malinga couldn't make a harder fight than Danny Jacons did, c'mon, and win a decision...
    He could. You disagree with me you should watch his fights with Nigel Benn, if Golovkin was there, he would lose both fights...

    Malinga would outbox Golovkin IMO, Golovkin wouldn't find him at all.... and in the end, 8 to 9 rounds going to Malinga's way with him just boxing Golovkin's head off.

    Golovkin would turn him inside out.

    How ?
    He would not be able to pressure Malinga behind his jab, Malinga would make him throw even less punches than he usually did with his constant side shifts and feints, if you watch the Jacobs fight and compare Danny Jacobs with Malinga, Malinga could do what Jacobs did exactly but he would add better footwork and feints, and a better and more busy jab.
    I honestly can't see how Golovkin would win.

    :eusa_doh:Not even Canelo could handle Golovkin's jab, you think Malinga is gonna be the man? :rolleyes:

    Golovkin busts up Malinga and his two dads Benn and Eubank Snr and sends them a nice framed photo of Karaganda for Christmas so that they know where Grandpa lives.

    If you think GGG can't manage what 12 other lesser fighters managed then you are new to boxing.

    Did you at least watch Malinga fights with Eubank and Benn ?

    Malinga could very well beat Canelo too btw.

    The losses that you are talking about wa salways close decisions... except RJJ which is another level of greatness, but hey forget about you being a GGG fan and I not being one, Malinga was all wrong for Golovkin anyway. This would be a close decision on the cards always !

    I think Malinga beat Benn both times the 1st fight was a gift.

    He did. His record looks bad with 13 loses, but that's not his story as a fighter, look at how many close decisions he fought. He was a tough fight to anyone.

    Sugar Boy was a favorite of mine but GGG is too much for him.
    Lets also not forget Eubank put him down and GGG hits harder then a Eubank.
    Honestly I think the bodyshots would do Sugar Boy in- GGG was a vicious body puncher.

    I think Malinga would give GGG some issues, nobody had an easy time with Malinga except prime RJJ who was a level above Golovkin. I think Golovkin wins a UD or stops him late.

    Sugar Boy ends up the same way, as against Roy Jones.
    I'd say ko 7.

    I always liked Malinga and his series of fights with local Rival Sakkie Horn were pretty intense.
    He was a good fighter who used guile to beat most his opponents.
    Good enough to beat GGG though? That's a tall ask.
