    Don't get it twisted GGG is a massive 160lber , @ 30 day weigh ins he is known to come in @ the 170-173lbs mark (so he's already dieted for a month), no doubt he walks around 176-180lbs. This means he's a big 168lber or an undersized 175lber (similar to Floyd @ 154)

    He would have to cut an arm off to make 155lbs, Canelo knows this thats why he is trying to force him to come down so he at least has a chance of victory.

    GGG fought his amateur career @ 75kg or 165lbs this is a fact. 2004 Athens olympics he won a silver medal at this weight (well over a decade ago FFS!)

    Forget height and reach, in terms of frame and build GGG is huge @ 160lbs, the only guy @ 160lbs with a similar frame is Chris Eubank jr.

    I personally think Jr is the only guy in the division who would stand a chance against GGG. I have GGG as a firm 66-34 favorite, but in a years time GGG will surely be sick of draining and test the waters @ 168lbs?

    TBF I have GGG as a favourite over all the 168lbser's as well, its only until 175lbs that I would put quite a few guys ahead of him

    Will GGG ever dare to be great?

    No you're wrong, GGG walks around 300lbs, him and Dustin Nichols train at Big Bear Burger King all the time.

    Did Hatton win a medal @ 165lbs @ the olympics? Does he walk around shredded @ 176-180lbs?

    Why does GGG refuse 155 if he can make it? It would be an easy fight and easy money for him?

    He walks around more than 173? This is a fact, he weighed in against Murray @ 172 for 30 day weigh in

    He's weighed 173 before too but I can't remember who against atm, might have been Rubio

    Quillin is the current largest MW.

    GGG, Saunders and Jacobs are roughly the same. GGG isn't that big.

    Saunders is quite small, he just doesn't have the best nutrition habits, he hasn't dedicated himself to drain and blows up between fights.

    Jacobs is above average but not massive.

    Quillin is big but still smaller than the 2 titans GGG and Jr

    PQ is well known to weight 180+ on fight night.

    Btw do you think Andre Ward is a massive lbw, what with his 178.5lb olympic medal n all?

    Yes, Ward was huge @ 168 and is as big as all the top fighters @ 175

    Geale weighed 181 against Cotto doesn't mean he's big just pathetic at rehydrating. PQ is the same.

    Stand GGG next to PQ and GGG is clearly the bigger build.
