    GGG just destroyed Martirosyan.

    Martirosyan who has had competitive fights with the best fighters at 154 Lara, Charlo and Andrade.

    All these GGG past his prime excuses came up after GGG had competitive fights with Canelo and Jacobs. Let's just face it Canelo and Jacobs are good. GGG is good, but not the god that his fans make him out to be.

    GGG's resume is still better than any other p4p entrants at the moment.

    Vanes fought Mexican Style should've stuck with Armenian Style. I wonder how much HBO honeypotted Vanes to pull that stunt.

    Vanes has never fought Mexican Style one time in his life, something is fishy:watchout:

    he is 36 1 year younger then haye and we see how shot haye is

    Golovkin is clearly past his best but that doesn't mean he is totally shot just he is past his best

    What exactly from a boxer being past his prime don't you understand exactly? You really think that one destruction certainly wipes out years of steady decline?
    Past prime Tyson still knocked over Botha in 5, Savarese in 1 and Nielsen in 6, but he still was clearly past it.

    GGG hasn't looked as good because he started fighting better comp period end of discussion. He would have done the same thing to Vanes 5 years ago as he did to him on Saturday.

    Yes he would have always struggled against Jacobs and Canelo 5 years ago as he did when he fought them.

    how hard is it to look at saturdays fight and compare speed and reaction time to 3 years ago? the footage is readily available and slow motion if you need it. dont see what theres left to debate after doing that.

    Correction:

    GGG is 36. Of course he is past prime.

    Canelo and Jacobs are good, but they used their skills to survive, not win.

    GGG is a god.

    The guys who are saying that Golovkin is past it are the same dumbasses that were saying a shot Floyd was fighting a prime Pacquiao.

    PBF was also 37 in his 4th weight class was the smaller man and was cut early in their fight while GGG is a career MW and was the bigger man big difference dumbass.
