    Curious to see what names come up here. Monster Inoue is the closest modern fighter I can think of, but it hurts that the Narvaez just misses the cutoff as the Monster's 8th fight.

    Salido in Texas for his second fight, Russell in his third, and Walters (at 130 if Nick needs it) as his seventh, and even his filler fights would be considered tough matchmaking for a typical pro with that few fights.

    Any other mentions?

    Probably no one atleast in recent memory. His resume already is light years beyond GGG's more people need to be talking about him.

    Can't think of anyone. His short resume is deeper than alot of other guys on the world level that have 20-30 fights.

    I like Golovkin, but when you're right, you're right. :good

    He's in the right place at the right time as there's plenty of talent around his division, and many quality fights are makeable for him- particularly if Arum and Haymon can work together, and it's looking like they just might...

    Takuma Inoue (he's 6 fights in so it might be someone big next)
    Hinata Maruta (might)

    Great fight.

    But it's a shame hws yet to unify or solidify his championship claim.

    I'd like a rematch with Russell.
