    I think that DeGale would beat GGG. Speaking of slick, DeGale is a slick boxer.

    DeGale is real, he has beaten a few very good fighters and will shred Badu Jack if that happens.

    Would Golovkin get credit for beating DeGale?

    He would have to, you couldn't really discredit that win at the full 168 but would DeGale get credit for beating Golovkin?

    Couple of scenarios, just questions, I'm not saying DeGale beats any of these but If DeGale beat Golokin then would he have to be considered in the top 5 P4P after recent enough wins against Dirrell, Bute and Golovkin?

    Then if DeGale does what he says he wants to and moves to the 175 and fights the winner of Ward Vs Kovalev then it's possible DeGale could go from fighting Porky Medina to fighting for the right to be called P4P number 1 in less than 12 months right?

    Degale would give him some resistance, but style wise Degale has zero chance to win. Degale is very good boxer and would have his moments, but his work rate isn´t enough against Golovkin. Golovkin would win rounds easily and I can´t see Degale having a KO punch, not against Golovkin.

    Well he would certainly be the best on his resume,I like De Gale but he's hard to watch because he takes time outs in all his fights giving the opponent and the Judges reason to go against him,he's gotten away with it so far but not against GGG?
