I hate Thurman with a passion for all the trash and the ways he amps fights but he beat Garcia cleanly 7-5 8-4 and porter and list of others,he's pound for pound the man right now,if GGG beats billy Joe Saunders or canelo HELL YEA HES NUMBER 1
Thurman, Kovalev, Gonzalez, Ward, Loma.......I'd even put Pacquiao and Canelo above Golovkin after what I saw of him last night. Its not so much that GGG had a hard time vs Jacobs, its the fact that Jacobs is by far the best fighter he's ever climbed a ring against and I think he was just brought down to size against Jacobs. Golokin had Jacob hurt on a couple of occasions but Golovkin was made to look ordinary against a good but not great defense of Jacobs. Jacob was a big target as well and Golovkin couldn't find him.
Are you forgetting that Jacobs has fight ending power? Golovkin couldn't just bullrush him and get him out of there.
