    Its been awhile can someone refresh me, who had/has the most ES Hype?:bbb

    I think GGG edges it for me, sometimes the whole 1st page is GGG threads.

    Pretty impressive I don't recall Bute being close to that.

    Read my Abraham thread that could also apply to GGG. Butt GGG is definitely better than Bute ever was.

    People are always comparing the hype TBH i don't think Bute was even nearly as popular as GGG is now.

    GGGs amateur pedigree, chin and prof performances indicate he is not hype he is the real deal

    Not the entertaining KO performances that induces "the hype", it's all the stuff that GGG has makes him not a hype job but a guy who's going to dominate 2 divisions over the next 5 years

    I just want to see him tested to see the best of him

    Firstly. GGG KTFO Bute in Amateurs
    Secondly. GGG has shown no *****s in the armour thus far, Bute should have lost to Andrade
    Thirdly. Anyone with eyes can see GGG is for real

    It's more like the hype surrounding Iron Mike Tyson

    Hype doesn't necessarily mean success or failure, it can be deserved or undeserved.

    You need a bit of hype to make the big coin and get the big fights regardless though.

    He's much better than Bute. With that said Bute has the better resume.

    Gennady is half Russian and Korean is closely related to Caucasians, the Mongoloid (official term) skull features of Asians and their epicanthic fold are not very evident in GGG, so to most people he looks Russian. I'm half Russian and Half Irish but I look Irish it happens.

    ... which includes getting KO'ed by Golovkin in amateurs.
