    Yep it’s the manner he won so much so that I’ve never seen anyone else heldto the standard he set,you know what I mean in that if he wins on points,either the other guy gets the credit for surviving or it looked like he was holding back to lure others into fighting him lol.
    Not saying that’s the case but just the very fact it was mentioned speaks about the standards he set.
    By the way I’ve always said the same about Floyd as well cause to turn up so many times and win easy is no small feat as boxing is littered with upsets.

    I have a really difficult time disagreeing with this. Im a GGG fan but this is pretty accurate.

    jake noone apart form the odd nutter would actually claim someone is ATG during their career, nor that 3G is one. Anyone doing so, just ignore, theres no special circumstances for anyone except the odd ali, mayweather, jones who went beyond beyond.

    he might go in, but we dont know yet. Hes taken the step to elite in his last fight so its clearly not beyond him.

    I'm picking Canelo! I think GGG has been slowly aging overnight.

    The only way Canelo wins is if it goes 12 & Oscar has paid the judges like last time. The NSAC are behind Clenelo too he's their new cash cow now Froid is history

    You cant have it both ways. You cant praise him for his longevity when his comp has been absolute trash. Of course hes reigned beating c class fighters. Hes a HOF. NOT an ATG.

    He’s a top MW for sure, all time.

    #1? Don’t know about that. Maybe if he scalps BJS, Murata, Charlo, SD.

    Then maybe you can make the case.

    Most Dominant Middleweight we have seen for some time and His Amature Career is Elite.....If he TKO's Canelo who is being talked up as the A Side and Is considerably Younger than Golovkin....he will be talked as one of the Greats that is for sure.!!!!
