    Monzon fought plenty of full sized middles,and Hagler fought at least 25.You were corrected on this before, just as you were when you said Monzon didn't fight any real punchers!

    Neither of them ever had a fraction of the tremendous weight advantages your hero Jim Jeffries had in his fights ,try and show some semblance of consistency!

    Without wasting my time on you again, are you saying Hagler and Monzon didn't face some name welter's moving up to meet them? They did.

    My point is GGG has not been so lucky to get these types of matches in his prime like Hagler and Monzon did.

    I never said Monzon didn't fight natural middles. He did, it's just those who started out at 160 and meet him were
    not a great group in my opinion.

    SOME They didn't build their reps on them as you suggested ! Griffith was the number 1 contender when he fought Monzon. he had won 10 fights on the trot 9 of them against full middles and 2 of them were against Tiger, and he hadn't lost a fight for 2 years!
    Golovkin opponents:
    Nunez
    Tapia
    Ishida
    Carvalho
    Gomis
    Ouma
    Are former light middles.Kakudis is a former welterweight! You don't know what you are talking about!
