    "Prime GGG" !!!!! GGG was/is shop worn, if he wasn't he burys Jacobs and Canelo v GGG is even further past prime !

    I seen someone mention this the other day, "would klitschko's deal with the current modern heavys"...Both Klits ARE modern, Martinez GGG and Canelo are all modern fighters, am I missing something BC ???

    At his peak it would have been interesting, but he was prone to being put down by lessar fighters

    Matthew Macklin shared the ring with GGG and Martinez and admitted, despite being good friends with Martinez, that GGG is “way better” than Martinez.

    Clenroid GHalvaroid loses worse than Chav Jr, GGG knocks the dancer cold.
    Hell, Big Margz took him to school.

    Yes that was my post about Klitschkos in the modern era...you missed the point of that post.... Klitschko may have just been fighting 5 years ago, but it was still a different era....look at the guys they fought, most opponents were dwarfed....compare to the current day, all the top HWs are at least as big as the Klitschkos, and thats something they didn't have to deal with during their reign

    I think stylistically he plays into both of them, myself. He might mince them for the first few rounds but then it's game over. At his very best, Sergio took at least 4 rounds completely off in every fight from being gassed. Against Canelo or Golovkin, that is the end all. They both would stalk him down and land repeatedly.

    Of course they did, Sanders, Thompson, Pulev etc..Ali was tall and fought majority of the time smaller fighters. The man that holds most the belts is 6ft tall currently. Prime Klit and there wouldn't be a domination or a 6ft 7" Wilder fighting and holding a belt, or Joshua

    GGG is all wrong for Martinez .

    He would get a worse spanking than he did aginst Tijuana Tornado.

    Vs canelo. Its a 50/50 job

    That's what im going off as well as my opinion. GGG is the kind of fighter that makes Martinez look worse than he is, hes a great fighter but GGG climbs all over him imo down to strength and styles

    The Canelo that fought GGG imo beats Martinez or the best Martinez ive seen. Theres a natural difference in core strength and Canelo in range is a skilled as any of them, might be a bit slow on his legs in comparison to his hand speed, but he can rough Martinez up imo, maybe even a beating late..Sergio is the one I would want to win though, one of the true gentlemen of the ring
