    Does that mean the middleweight division is weak? Seeing as how Golovkin has disposed of everyone in front of him without breaking a sweat, even letting them tee off on him at times, what does it mean if Brook manages to make the fight more competitive than Golovkin's previous opponents?

    very good point it would just mean brook is better then people thought to some extent we don't now how good brook is what he know is he is very legit but he could even be better.

    Golovkin is the king at mw the only guy who would be 50-50 with GGG is ward

    No it wouldn't mean the division is weak it'll just disprove the demographic about how Brook is another bum. Granted If brook does do well they'll just say GGG couldn't even handle an untested fighter like Brook so w/e

    MW is weak division, but noone should blame Golovkin becase of that. I don't believe that Brook will last 12 rounds. Ward is LHW now, two divisions above GGG....and two divisions below Wilder and Joshua...

    Even brook has said we haven't seen the best of him and for a guy who has a record of 36-0 with 25 KO's? that's kinda scary.

    The middleweight division is a bit weak, I think even most GGG fans would admit that

    This is a lose-lose for Golovkin so I don't know why people are even bashing him. If he does anything less than KO Brook within the first 30 seconds, he failed, is overrated, a bum, hasn't fought anyone good, etc etc.

    The division is weak, I don't think that's really in question other than for a couple of guys.

    It doesn't mean the division is necessarily that weak as GGG has been feasting on the dregs.

    Murray and Lemieux aside the rest of the guys he has fought weren't the cream of the crop or they were even starting to fade like Geale and Macklin.

    Jacobs, BJS, CEJ would have the same record as GGG if they fought his resume

    A few other young fighters are coming up that I'd already pick to clean up his resume as well as stop Brook tbh

    The group of people who think GGG is a bum and only ever fought bums.
