    I think we can all agree however, that Mugabi would be the best fighter GGG ever fought. I would go with Golovkin slightly and wouldn't take my eyes off the ring for nary a second in case I missed something.

    In who's world would Lemieux be considered a big MW? He's 5'9". That said, I'd favor GGG over Mugabi.

    I actually believe Mugabi was a stronger guy than Jackson. Not better at one punch KO's. But like I stated, "Second only to Julian Jackson". Nothing to sneeze at. Also, Mugabi performed better against the big punchers than The Hawk. Besides, this isn't a thread about Mugabi and Jackson anyways.

    Me too, Mugabi was stiff -legged,Golovkin's superior mobility would allow him to pick his spots,plus Mugabi was really a Jnr middle.

    This fight would all be about Golovkin's jab and how he methodically picked Mugabi apart with it en route to victory.
