    Two wins against future HOFers, one of whom is two weight classes above him. Yes. The Ward ship has sailed though.

    As a staunch gstring hater I would have to give him props for doing that. after all so far he has no atg or hof on his resume. he passed on bhop atg good name to have on resume, chumped out on ward claiming he was a small mw, chickened on lara even when mayweather said he would give him a fight if he fought lara.

    so hell yeah gstring beats clownelo and SOG those are legit wins.

    Moves up and beats Ward??

    That's not going to happen, GGG is too small to move to 175.

    I think he has a fair chance to beat Canelo,
    He can't beat Ward, that's beyond the realm of possibility.
    He's a future HOFer, he's not an ATG, he's done
    nothing to be considered as such

    GGG is probably a top 10 middleweight of all time if he beats Canelo and if he were to then beat Andre Ward in 2018 (highly unlikely the fight happens or GGG wins), I think he could be considered an ATG.

    Ward is not getting old. Silly MVC being silly as usual.

    Yeah , and there's nothing stopping him from calling out Ward if he beats Canelo.. Ward would jump at the opportunity. That fight is easily made if GGG wants it.

    Hes an atg now, him being the main man at 160 for over five years. With the Canelo fight if he wins makes him look even better. Ward is genuinely too big, he beats ggg !

    I agree, You can't consider somebody who's best win is a close split decision against Danny jacobs an ATG. Sorry but that's just ridiculous.

    Who did Hopkins beat at 160 that u would defo have over Jacobs ? Hopkins resume isn't great at 160 once you take the career 147lb fighters off it. He beat the best there was just like ggg, not prime atg's..
