    154lbs is a stacked division full of future Hofers. Young studs entering their primes as well some top quality veterans.

    Andrade
    JRock
    Jermell
    Jermall
    Lubin
    Liam Smith
    Liam Williams
    Lara
    Brook
    Even Cotto, Trout and Vanes plus many more

    Not to mention a plethora of stars coming up from 140-147 that could easily be super fights namely Spence and Crawford.
    Hell 160lbers like GGG who claims to make 154 easily could always grow some balls and make weight for a super fight.

    Please discuss for 40 pages how Canelo could cement his legacy and make billions staying a lifetime 154lber

    That's highly debatable the Lara and Trout matches should've been draws, if not flat out losses. Cotto is a shell of his former self who was feasting on drained or crippled fighters.

    Still looked better than Golovkin beating Geale.

    lemme cut you off here... He had already moved up, and is now trying to move down again.
    Let's wait and see if he can still make 154, because he hasn't done that for 3 years now (to the day).

    Then too bad he already Said he'd eventually grow out of 154 and made a promise to fight at 160 and is the lineal champion of The weight that he doesn't need to move Up to.

    Actually he didn't, Cotto followed him around and outboxed him for 3 rounds, savagely headbutted the hell out of him and followed it up with a left hook dropped him and flurried dropping him again and then Geale quit in the 4th. A drained shell of a man who was on the verge of hypercalcemia. GGG faced a full strength Geale who he terrified and suffocated with his pressure and stopped in 3 rounds.

    Of course. Everyone GGG faces could KO any fighter between 154-168 except for Golovkin of course and automatically become ATGs. I get it, you have a big imagination.

    You hate Golovkin and will spin every victory or accomplishment he's ever had to look bad because you're a delusional hateful propagandist instead of a boxing fan. Who the **** said his opponents were ATG's? I wrote an article putting them into their proper perspective for all of you idiots who are basically HBO and Showtime watching casual fans, who clearly don't know anything about the MW division and GGG's opponents outside of their matches against GGG. Are they ATG's no, but they're far better than all of you haters give them credit for.

    A couple of GGGs most recent opponents barely had over 20 fights, one barely 19 wins, another opponent of GGG had like 10 losses and he KO one of GGGs best opponents. Golovkin's resume is hilarious when you consider all the hype he receives.
