    This is a parallel world, where all the people GGG has challenged so far since he's been in the limelight somehow accepted his challenge, and got beaten to a pulp accordingly

    so his resume before Proksa is the same, but after Proksa it'd be like this:

    Proksa
    Felix Sturm
    Sergio Martinez (pre Chavez fight)
    Daniel Geale
    Peter Quillin
    Darren Barker
    Martin Murray
    Mayweather at 154
    Chavez Jr
    Cotto

    all of them W's in great fashion:bbb

    Where would you rank GGG in a P4P sense,
    and in the ATG MW list?

    Geale is the only one who didn't duck him (not forever at least)

    I included him because he's a quite good W in this MW era

    remember, this is a parallel world where GGG has had the chance to fight everyone

    Chavez ducked a contract extension with Top Rank, not GGG. As you can see, he's not fighting anybody right now with no fight in site. Same with Mikey Garcia.

    And Sergio Martinez has been out the majority of the past 2 years with a knee injury. He came back to take a money fight against Cotto that wasn't seen as too risky.

    Mayweather doesn't know who the hell GGG is and GGG hasn't even fought at 154 since 2002 when he was an amateur.

    The rest of them, you can make a case for

    If he beat all of them convincingly, all the "Golovkin vs (Hearns, Hagler, McLellan, Hopkins, Ward, etc)" threads would make a lot more sense. As it stands, he's beaten nobody of note and doesn't warrant the attention he's being given at this stage.

    GGG never challenged Mayweather. You don't "challenge" a guy in a weight division you haven't fought at in 15 years.

    If he wants the fight he should take a fight at 154, Period.

    I agree. GGG can't make 154. I'll believe it when i see it.

    I'd take the following off the list:
    Mayweather: I know Golovkin said he'd fight at 154, but he hasn't. Awesome fight but makes no sense. Hopkins said he'd fight Floyd at 160, doesn't mean Floyd is ducking him. If Golovkin was a contender at 154, then absolutely Floyd is ducking.

    Chavez: Chavez JR didn't like the terms of the contract presented by Top Rank, he had 2 options: Sign an extension and receive big money, or don't re-sign and receive little money.

    Anyone at 160 who refuses to fight him though is flat out ducking.

    Floyd calls himself TBE and is champion at 154, GGG has said he can move down at any moment. if Floyd had an ounce of real greatness in him like other legends of the past, he'd accept GGG's challenge. dont compare GGG to Hopkins or Ward, GGG doesn't want to force Floyd to fight in a weight he's never been before. GGG's not even a big mw, his size on fight night is similar to Canelo's. ofc, GGG would be a real threat , unlike flatfooted drained no stamina having ginger, therefore Floyd will keep ducking him like the plague.

    Chavez might be ducking a contract extension, but if he truly cared about his legacy and wanted people to take him seriously again he'd take the fight with GGG. a victory over Golovkin would erase the Martinez and Vera debacles from the public's mind, he'd get more cred from beating GGG than from beating..well, anyone not named Andre ward

    I posted one post and I got quoted twice and I replied. Nothing abnormal about that. I'm not dissing GGG either

    wouldn't change a single thing in my book.
    fighters beating opponents I know are inferior to them means nothing.
    ggg is who he is and that'll never change. he already proved how great he is to me
