    Nooo bro you have to all wrong. Saunders let Canelo land that shot as part of his plan to lower Canelo into a false sense of security. Then to complete the effect he threw in the towel. Canelo got complete fooled by BJS!

    GGG still has an elite skill set but he is declining and noticeably so.

    I hope he retires before some C-level upcoming fighter gets him at the right time

    None of those 3 are good enough even against this 40 year old version. Of those three Saunders would have the best chance, using his feet. That said BJS never took his career as seriously as he should have and I think GGG wears him down and out.

    I watched the Murata fight again this morning and GGG not only looks really old and even more declined than he already was but his legs have gone, his balance has gone, he's easier to hit, and he's even slower and his reaction times have dulled even more. He still has the power, experience, heart and chin but he's a shell of his former self now and it's only a matter of time before he's shot to bits. That being said, the version of GGG who fought Murata should still have just enough left in the tank to beat the likes Smith and featherfists like Plant and BJS 2.0. If Clenelo can break their bones and KO and stop them then bone breaker extraordinaire GGG certainly can too.

    Ggg is an elite boxer with phenomenal power. I think a lot of guys doesn't understand it.

    Ggg never lost a fight legitimately. Even now imo he beats canelo If everything would be fair and square, but they will rob him again.

    Ggg is an certified atg and on the level of Marvin hagler.

    Only guys of the past 30 years who could have beaten ggg legitimately are:
    Andre ward
    Calzaghe
    Rjj
    Bernard hopkins

    And all fights would still be 50/50

    I don't include lhw, because they are significantly bigger

    Andrade would get brutally beaten up by ggg as would Charlo even now.

    Andrade and Charlo are the epitome of big talk and no walk
