    GGG stops Quillen. "Kid Chocolate" is nothing special, and he's not intelligent enough in the ring to avoid getting suckered into a shootout.

    Sergio and Pirog, I believe, are the only ones in the division with the attributes to to seriously trouble GGG (Sergio because of his offensive capabilities, Pirog because of his defensive prowerss and counterpunching ability).

    A prime sergio would of had a good chance, but not now.. i see ggg staying undefeated until he moves up.

    sounds about right he is too strong for those guys and great foot work.

    Yeah^^. The poll's a bit slippery cos it suggests that you think one of these guys would be in with a reasonable shot. I don't. The best odds I would give right now would be Murray and possibly Quillin - but both of these would be slim at best (but y'know, hey, boxing).

    A fit and tuned Pirog would be a fantastic fight, but I see Golovkins methodicity breaking him down. A 2010/1 Martinez' dazzling speed and mobility would be a fascinating matchup.

    His only real tests now are at the very top of the SMW division.

    Jr's got a great chin, let's see how he takes GGG's body shots though.

    Father time is always the favorite, and right now GGG is facing that opponent
