    Brook is a huge welterweight and he is bigger than Khan (Khan is still taller) but he is very much undersized @ 160, way more undersized than Khan @ 155lbs.

    Khan is much closer to Canelo in size than Brook is to GGG.

    Canelo is much smaller than GGG, that's obvious GGG is the same size as Martin Murray and would have to chop a leg off to make 155.

    I honestly think this match up is better than Canelo-Khan, not to say it's a good one. Khan made his career at 140 lbs and was chinny even there, there was no way that fight was ending in anything but a brutal KO.

    Don't kid yourself, wearing a jacket with shoulder pads makes you look far wider than wearing a t-shirt! Do you have downs syndrome?

    The pics of GGG and Murray are taken at different venues so shoes and clothes etc don't make a difference they are the same size everywhere.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Kell was wearing high heels tbh

    Murray stands much straighter so may appear taller in the ring, in his fighting stance.
    Did you see Groves vs Murray? Murray looked taller in the ring standing upright and stiff

    I supplied 4 different pics as evidence! What you got?

    I trust fighting footage more than I do pics, and Murray looked bigger to me and not just due to a narrower stance.

    I think Golovkin's bigger than Canelo but not a lot bigger, he's definitely taller but Canelo does have a big frame/bones I don't know, since his fight night weight is pretty much the same as GGG's. There's a pic of the two of them side by side (though Canelo is a bit in front of GGG), and whilst GGG has visibly more height and slightly more muscle mass, Canelo doesn't look naturally much smaller.

    Though I generally agree that Khan is probably closer in size to Canelo than Brook is to GGG, but who cares. Khan's got no chin and at WW he's not exactly been impressing as of late (see Algieri fight). If it was GGG at 155 vs Khan or 160 vs Brook, I'd choose the latter any day. Though again, they are both **** fights as far as I'm concerned.
