    gstring ducked a 53 year old Bhop. And these gstring fans think this taxidriver is going to get in the ring with a prime RJJ let alone win. really? GTFOH rofl.

    How did GGG duck BHop?

    His team made noises a while ago hoping for the fight, and got criticized for trying to pick on an old man.

    RJJ beats GGG btw, I actually can't think of anyone I'd pick against a prime RJJ at 160 lb.

    Roy wins easily, extremely easily. Roy at MW and SMW fought coming
    forward, going backwards, moving side to side. His hand and foot
    speed caught so many people unaware and it's the shots you don't
    see that hurt. Everyone complained of the same thing against Roy,
    "he was too fast, I never saw what he threw". On top of the speed,
    he was a giant MW and a certified banger.

    And for the contingent screaming about chin, Roy showed no chin
    deficiencies until he was well past his prime, when stopped by
    Tarver in the second fight by a shot he never saw. Lest we forget,
    he took a moderate beating by Tarver in the first fight and never
    folded, shots from John Ruiz, Toney, Merqui Sosa, and quite a
    few other guys with good digs.

    Golovkin is a come forward stalker, and he'd have been lit up
    by Roy off the back foot. Can't fight Roy like that. Everyone
    that tried got decimated.

    I dread to think what would happen when Golovkin touched that glass chin.

    Jones wide UD or late TKO but Golovkin has a punchers chance definitely.

    1. You don't know if/what/when/for how long Roy was using.


    2. You could give GG every PED available.

    Let's be realistic:

    It wouldn't turn him into Superman.

    It wouldn't improve his defence.

    It wouldn't make him anywhere near as fast as Roy.


    How would it have been a given that he'd have flattened him?

    He'd have needed the perfect opportunity.

    No amount of PEDS could have guaranteed that.

    GGG would have a puncher's chance. Roided or not, that's about it.
