    GGG is not looking fresh anymore, does anyone think the old Emperor can successfully Unify titles again???

    60/40 Brant kicks his cotton candy arse but if GGG is able to recapture a title can he unify the division again???

    No. I dont expect him to get another high high profile win again, unfortunately. We will see though. I hope he proves me wrong.

    It's probably too late for that. But he's still good enough to get a couple of top wins and pick up a world title again for sure.

    Give him a third Canelo fight on neutral territory, No Vegas & NSAC corruption, with honest unbiased officials & he will regain those stolen titles

    No, he is too old. But he may get a couple more super fight paydays before he exits.

    Not to sound like a schmuck... but you say "again," so I assume you qualify at least Danny Jacobs as such. But if you are going beyond that to your Lemieux and Geale level, I think he can and will still haul in a scalp or two on that level.

    I give Golovkin a lot of flack and he deserves it because he's a fraud.
    What I will give him credit for is giving 160 life again. It was a dead division and his hype machine brought it back to life. That cannpt be denied.

    I had him beating Canelo the first fight, so I count Jacobs and Canelo as his high level wins.

    I do not consider Lem or Geale high level wins. But they are still good ones. Im sure he can pick up a solid win like that... but for me, a high level win would be

    Jacobs rematch
    Third Canelo fight
    Callum Smith

    Top tier level opponents.

    Definitely think he can still beat the second tier guys.

    *edit

    I see I used 'high profile win' instead of 'high level win'. There can be a percieved difference between the two. So for clarification I mean high level win. Against top tier fighters.

    For me personally GGG is STILL the MAN @ 160 Until someone LEGITIMATELY beats him

    No. He's past his prime. Win another one or two fights then hang em up, move back to Kazakhstan, buy a yurt and a couple oxen, and live off the fat of the land.

    The capital of Kazakhstan is more civilized and safe than the Crap hole you come from.

    If Golovkin can't get another top win or win a title then that doesn't bode well for the guy who won by a grand total of two points in a split decision over him. Golovkin is still at the top of the division mate.

    Thank you for that bit of information. Now you may crawl back under your rock. Or die, whichever comes first.
