    If GGG gets the lineal title, beats Lee-Quillin winner and HNDNJ, then Canelo might be ready to take the fight.

    By then, Khyrtov will be ready, and my god could he be a quality challenger if he carries on as he has been.

    Golovkin's 'Mugabi' perhaps.

    Not sure how this thread has gone on this long... Toney should be the clear favorite to win

    Well Golovkin is the best middle since Hopkins held the title for most.

    So it's an interesting one, trying to unpick his status. Plus, everyone is thinking about him because he's got that fight coming up.

    Golovkin has never been down as an amateur or pro and he's been fighting world class opposition since he was 15.

    It's a shame the Leicester Olivares or Benn aren't in their prime today, now that would be a shootout to look forward to vs Golovkin, instead of the basic offensively weak Murray.

    Certainly he had a much shorter prime than GGG. But he had a five year period where he went 27-0 and made 5 title defenses which is why I made the Golovkin comparison. Also I was watching Valdez last night...

    Anyway Flea who's your favorite wrestler?
