    Please understand there are several caveats to condsider though again he does have awesome potential.

    He has a lot to do though and he's old enough it will be yogi for him to build a top resume

    I've only recently came back to ESB to post occasionally and I gotta say, the quality of trolling has hugely dropped. You don't bait or anything, you just make posts that make you look like an absolute spastic who's been following boxing for maybe 2 months.

    Negative....

    The talent isnt fine and if he dominated the SMW division I wouldnt call it weak.

    We cant change the current climate of the division at the moment and yes GGG is in a no win situation and I don't beleive the man needs any apologists. We are discussing his ability to become the greatest MW and fact is with all the different variables needed to fill that title he just doesnt have it....not yet at least.

    The quality has gone to **** TBH....I've been on here for years and Boxing was my life and my everything thus the reason why I joined. Then all the mindless ethnocentic partial **** started to become quite real instead of your usual banter.

    I see the general boxing forum is still rife with stupidity.

    I can see GGG being remembered in a not to dissimilar way to the klitschos,

    he's clearly the best in his division, and will most likely have the record to prove it, may even be able to retire with a undefeated record, however there'll always be questions on his best win, and the quality of opponents in his division, which he can't do much about,

    think he needs to move to sMW, where there's bigger fights for him, (froch chavez jr, ward) if he can't get cotto or canelo to fight him.

    Threads like this are why people give GGG the **** he gets, I like Golovkin and he's an entertaining fighter but GGG is benefiting from a bunch of old shop worn fighters in his division and bottom 10-20 MW's. All this talk abkut ducking the only guy who is legitimately ducking GGG is Quillin, real talk GGG probably loses to Canelo next year an all the talk will unfortunately flip to him being a hypejob.

    Let this guy actually do something first because right now he's not a HOFer/ATGor even P4P nobody calls guys like Thurman/Broner ATG's and they done as much if not more.

    This is surely a joke?! I'm a big fan of his but the generation in which he is boxing in is not good enough for him to be the greatest
