    its no good comparing a fight with two ATG,

    as long as they say 'years from now' that was a fantastic fight, that should be all people are bothered about

    Hagler/Hearns isn't one of the greatest fights ever simply because it was a great brawl between two big punchers, any pair of bums can slug it out, hell I can name a good number of fights with better action, drama, technique etc. Hagler/Hearns is great because it was the two greatest, most popular and richest active fighters in the sport at the peak of their powers putting everything on the line from the opening bell daring to be great and producing an awesome fight out of it.

    The only thing that could've come close in this day and age in terms of relevance was Pac/May, but they chose the money.

    GGG/Limeiux should be a great fight that could produce high drama, but really though, it's a fight between a guy who has shown the potential to be the best MW post-Hopkins but has yet to be tested in any real way vs an explosive puncher with not much else to back that up.

    LOL maybe GGG but Lemeiux? The guy already lost against a guy GGG destroyed. This will be another annihilation.

    All the bandwagon Golovkin fan's after this probably think he just beat a top champion in David Super Champ Lemmings and is the best middleweight of all time.

    Watch James Toney vs Iran Barkley, in that fight Toney was against a bigger puncher with more size, more skill, a real champion and for the most part he stood right in front of him and schooled him. Better chin, skill, light years ahead in defense and still yet James Toney isn't even considered the best middleweight of all time. But yet GGG fans think he is the best and wonder why so many people **** on their fans.
