    GGG.

    But Jackson, for my money, is the better one-hitter-quitter! He had more one shot KO power than GGG.

    Saying that, GGG within 7. He'll wear him down BUT could go down himself. I mean, if Kell Brook can land then Jackson can too.

    One of the most exciting potential matchups in history.

    I would have to pick Golovkin

    Loved Jackson's 1 shot power- I won't argue against Brixton Bomber there!- but I don't like his matchup vs GGG. I think Jackson could've turned out practically anyone's lights at 154 and though he carried much of that up to 160, GGG has shown he'll adapt to big punchers with a smarter strategy there and packs a great chin to boot.

    The Hawk's got a puncher's chance, and while that's more than just about anyone else's puncher's chance, I'd favor Golovkin to stop him. Awesome fight.

    Jackson biggest weakness is that he hates pressure, he just can't fight under pressure, but GGG tends to box against punchers, so if he tries to box Jackson, he would get caught.
    I'll pick JJ by ko.

    Yeah it would have been fun while it lasted, but personally i think the Hawk would have got GGG out of there, brook had him going slightly in i think the second round with a couple of combos, to the point GGG had to grab and hold him, and Julian hits a lot harder than Brook does.

    His punches were fast and extremely hard, something GGG hasn't really faced just yet.

    I think Golovkin was more or less trying to regain control of the pace by grabbing Brook, rather than doing it because he was hurt. But interesting point nonetheless.

    Jackson's porous defense and shaky chin would lead to an early round stoppage win for GGG. Think about the McCllelan fights.

    GGG wouldn't take the fight and then make some 'hilarious' joke about a lost pen....

    Being more serious for a second: Can't really look at this fight and say for certain. There's so much power with both fighters that one punch could decide it. The only way I can explain my take is: if they fought 10 times, GGG would win approx eight.
