    Yes he was. You wouldn't find him climbing up your drainpipe in the middle of the night wearing a balaclava either.

    He's 33 right? At 4 fights a year he'll be 44-0 by the time he's 36, assuming he wins them all...

    48-0, 37
    52-0, 38
    56-0, 39

    If he fights some good names he can make history.

    I'm one of his early supporters (since his late Germany days) but I don't think he will retire undefeated. He clearly is one of those guys that fights anyone and will take risks fighting guys in higher weightclasses before he retires. No matter how good you are, there will be losses that way

    I agree. He's not affraid of the challenge. He's different animal ( not like Mayweather, Stevenson, quillin).

    there was a time May was not afraid of a challenge either. He chased all the big names and was quite fearless.

    Its only since the Delahoya fight that he discovered he was ***** made.

    It really depends when he retires. Golovkin just turned 33 in April. I think he will still be un-defeated by 36, which means he's not losing in his next 6-10 fights.

    I do not think he can get to 49-0.

    I am Gennady's huge fan. Boxing is his whole life, and I think he will keep fighting when out of his prime and will eventually get beaten.

    If he stays at MW and retires before he declines, he will stay unbeaten. But IMHO he is like Duran ... willing to fight anyone even past the sell by date ... Father Time will get him his L.

    Who knows. At his natural weight class, he's unbeatable.

    At higher weight classes, someone bigger than him may beat him.

    I don't see anyone at MW troubling him now, so seems plausible. The only way I can see him losing now is if he moves up to SMW and takes a superfight or two. He's still got some work to do at MW, like unifying the division and having a superfight with Canelo.

    I don't see anyone beating him at Middleweight anytime soon. But if he moves up to Super Middleweight and challenges some of the tougher people there, I feel like he'll be in pretty big trouble
