    no one can get him on the back foot let alone have any success , only way I can see him losing is if he fights somebody with a world class punch who can counter punch and the only man I can honestly see putting ggg's down is Andy lee! just depends how long he gets to land one

    He has a great chin, but he doesn't do much to stop getting hit. I'd like to see him in with someone world class that also has KO power.

    No one in the middleweight division beats him. The only guys in and around his divisions that could beat him in my opinion are Froch and Ward. I would just favour Ward to beat him if he hasn't lost anything, purely because GGG hasn't faced anyone like that. Froch is a 50/50 fight in my opinion, GGG is better at everything really in terms of technicalities but so have most of Froch's opponents. GGG can be hit quite easily but he appears to have a very decent chin, yet to be truly tested though as Murray was the first guy to consistently catch him clean, and he doesn't bang much at all. Froch would have the superior jab too in my opinion and could win rounds by just getting behind that and as Murray showed last night, GGG doesn't do an awful amount when he is going backwards. Still both are exceptional fights but I would love to see either.

    I think people are going overboard about him, to be honest. Yes, he's a very hard puncher but last night got me thinking would he have walked through Nigel Benn's power punches? Murray got his attention with some body shots and the odd right hand;is it just possible that someone can time him coming in?

    I know he has a great amateur record and he's never been stopped, but when people say fighters like Valdez, Briscoe and Monzon couldn't live with him(and some HAVE), I shudder. Gene Fullmer could be a dominant champion in today's Middleweight division!

    Think Froch's only advantage is size, he's surely too slow and plodding for GGG, saying that would love to see the fight over the summer.

    All I see is Frochs engine bulldozing GGG into the later rounds, then BAM..... Cobra'd. Ward on the other hand wins a shut out UD.

    Ward dropped 4 rounds to Abraham, and that many to Bika, but shuts out GGG?

    You two must be pen pals?
