Kovalev would give him loads of trouble and would hurt him a few times if not stopping him. Although, I think even Kovalev could get stopped if he's not strategic enough in the fight. I'm not 100 percent sure his chin is that good. The guys at middleweight have no chance unless Andy Lee can pull off a miracle punch being down on the scorecards and stop him. But Andy Lee's more likely to be stopped himself before he gets the chance to in the early rounds if they will ever fight. Andre Ward has no chance. He has no power and his style is perfect for Golovkin. He would get hurt and stopped earlier than Murray did imo. I think when Andre Ward comes in quickly with a jab he leaves himself open and then immediately likes to clinch. I think in that period he gets caught and hits the canvas. Carl Froch is known for his iron chin but Groves nearly stopped him early in their first fight. Froch was getting outboxed comfortably in that fight before the controversial stoppage. Golovkin is too relentless and would eventually wear Froch down to a stoppage or a UD points decision.
Not really. I don't think he would win but if he can land one of his miracle punches then maybe he can capitalize on it. Ward can't do that because he has no power. You need power clearly to beat Golovkin. Otherwise he's going to keep coming forward relentlessly.
I can't see anyone at middleweight beating but if ward was active I think he'd have a decent chance at super-middle
