    Opposition. His opposition is world class! Take a look at it...

    Geale? Former world champ. He got crushed.

    Macklin? Gave Sturm the fight of his life (and was on the wrong end of a decision) and gave Martinez a great fight.

    Murray? Same as Macklin. A seriously underrated fighter, too.

    Qullin? He won't go near GGG.

    Lee? He'd face Golovkin, but you can't blame him for taking the money fights if they arise.

    Cotto? He won't go near Golovkin.

    Besides, the first three opponents that I have named have been in the upper echelons of the Middleweight division for years now.

    There's nothing wrong with Golovkin's opposition - It's been great so far, but he just makes them look ordinary.

    Froch admitted he would never fight GGG.

    Ward became inactive, instead of fighting GGG he became moderator for GGG's fights :rofl

    Geale is the only world class fighter he has faced so far...I understand he's the most ducked guy in Boxing but he still has only faced one world class boxer. You have mentioned four guys who haven't even fought GGG, why are they mentioned here? He is to fight one of those, probably two before the year is out but Andy Lee or Murray are not world class...good fighters yes, world class no.

    GOT you cornered you consider cotto a world class 160 fighter?

    ahhaha this what i wanted guys take notes cotto would get knocked out by many mw let alone golovkin

    so golovkin has to fight cotto to be legit are you honestly ok in the head?

    the only thing golovkin gets out of fighting cotto is he is gonna fight a well known fighter other then that cotto is not proven at mw

    Chill out stan, I never said GGG wasn't legit...I just remarked that his resume isn't as great as people make it out to be. And it is true....160 is a weak division but that doesn't make high ranked boxers world class...Andy Lee lost to Brian Vera...he aint world class...Taylor has a belt, he aint world class either. GGG is doing his best to fight the best, but they aren't world class by any means

    There's a reason why GGG is getting ducked.

    I like GGG, but he's 33 and he's fought nobody. holding a belt for a few months doesn't make a great fighter. Those guys were all terrified, the best fighter he's fought is an ESPN guy (Stevens).

    The only guy he's fought who wasn't terrified was a blown up welterweight and they had an even battle for 8 rounds.

    Not saying he can't fight but let's stay in the real world.

    You say 'lets stay in the real world' and then say Stevens was the best fighter he fought! :lol::lol:

    Remind me - Who has Steven fought that was relevant prior to GGG?
