Sergey Kovalev is a much less skilled fighter then Gennady Golovkin

    Ward/Bika, Ward/Boone, GGG would have beat him on both those nights

    :lol::lol: are you really bringing up ward's 6th fight against Boone, when he was 21 :lol::lol:. GGG/Ouma, GGG/Monroe, GGG has so many flaws in his game.

    Quite possibly, but every fighter has an off-night. That's why boxing is unpredictable.

    It's hard to imagine GGG, as much as I like him, outclassing Froch as clearly as Ward did.

    IDK, Groves was giving Froch the onion at times, a guy that was pretty well matched with Murray. GGG owned Murray every second.

    Ggg is such a diverse fighter, he was decimating Lemieux with the jab alone. He's got a bag full of tricks and keeps surprising fans and critics alike. The age of dominance of the slick American fighter is coming to a close and more often you're seeing pressure fighters with high ring IQ's dominating the scene, like Ggg and Chocolatito are doing. Now you have slick East Euro's like Loma and Wlad and believe or not, actual EXCITING American fighters like Spence and Crawford. Don't count Kov out, yes, he beat an ancient Hopkins, but Hopkins was still thst good when Kov took him to school. Chilemba just tough as nails. He still got humbled by Kov. Kov has scary Bob Foster-like power. Fight changing one punch power.

    Jermaine Taylor gave Froch a lot of trouble in their fight too. It's quite possible that Golovkin could have beat the sh** out of Froch. Froch didn't seem too keen on fighting him either from what I remember.

    Oh dear, deluded people. Kov is actually more skilled, but it is subtle you have to really study closely.

    Maybe Kov should be G's next opponent! Think of the props he would get for skipping 168 and taking out the top dog in Kov! His popularity would go through the roof and the big pay days would start piling up! Wait.....that's right, he wants to get all the belts at 160 from belt holders that don't want to fight! If he could only figure out how to get them belts from those guys, he would be the greatest middle weight forever!

    Ithought kovalev looked alright against chilemba. A little sloppy but not bad.

    You can consider GGG a better skilled fighter than Kova without assuming that GGG beats him.

    You stupid or something:huh

    It was even going into the 12th round.

    Chilemba was poppin Sergeys head around like a double end bag.

    Ward would UD GGG aswell
    Rank him higher than Kovalev p4p? No way when GGG actually steps up and starts fighting good people he will look flawed aswell
    You cant judge GGG on an eye test until he fights a legit world class boxer
