    I've seen every GGG match but one, I know how good he is, in fact here the thread I made on him http://www.boxingforum24.com/showthread.php?t=518691
    But I'm just not sold that he will effortlessly walk through all the top MW and SMW fighters. Sorry.
    I thought Tyson was unstoppable when I was 10 and....... then I saw him get KTFO by Buster, and that cured me of believing the hype too much.

    GGG doesn't get blown out on coke and party before he fights.

    :yepYeah I know, but still **** happens, he wins over most, but somebody will have his number.
    What's your prediction for GGG-Rubio BTW? I think Marco will go the distance and lose on points.

    Lemieux, Rubio, Khytrov, Chudinov have a slight punchers chance, mainly SMW is what I was talking about

    I think Rubio could be a very tough fight for Golovkin. By tough I mean he goes 12 and wins 3-4 rounds. Rubio could be improving and has the toughness that may allow him to hang and power to hurt Golovkin given the way he leaves himself exposed.

    I'd like to see Leimux vs. Golovkin. Even though I think Leimux has a great chance vs. other champions no point in him stagnating not having a title shot. If he can't get Korobov he should go for Golovkin.

    Chris Eubank Jr. will take Golovkin into deep waters and drown him (right now).

    Golovkin's punching power doesn't compare to his according to his pops. :patsch:rofl

    I think GGG wins by stoppage in 8 rounds or less.
    I figured Macklin and Geale would've went at least 6 or 7 rounds though.

    yeh but hagler never moved up. think GGG is well entitled to mark his status at MW before he goes up. ward wont wanna face kovalev and stevensons either. works both ways.

    If Rubio fights trying survive like he did against Lemieux I think he goes the distance, but if he goes to war like he said he was he gets stopped late, maybe early if he really reckless.
    Geale I thought would last longer, I didn't think Macklin would do well at all.
