It would depend on how many Pacquiao's? Golovkin can probably beat two at the same time but three might be pushing it.

This thread shows indisputably why GGG is better.

best of best

Right now there is no question that Manny is best and in a class of his own, but let's ask this question again after GGG fights and wins belts in 8 weight divisions. Heck, I'd say GGG is the best then.

You guys are trying to compare a circle to an octagon, they look similar but aren't! IMO, of course.

The hype for GGG is crazy considering he's yet to beat any genuine world class opponent yet

Well if that's the litmus test then just what were those he destroyed? And after you answer that question then answer this......why do people like Monzon, Hagler and Hopkins still get hyped as super men? Based on the criteria you have used, not one of them fought any real world class middleweight opponents? How is it those 3 routinely get top 5 on Mid all times lists? Nino and a long in the tooth Briscoe were the only 2 real middleweights with name rec Monzon fought and Hagler had Vito and Minter. Hopkins never fought a world beater at middle. Tito was not a middle.

Whats crazy is this ubiquitous double standard regarding Mr. Golovkin.

Manny at his peak was levels above Golovkin I think. Now he's coming off a career defining defeat and major surgery and has announced his intentions to retire on his next fight. Golovkins future is wide open and he's doing nothing but improving. Still lean towards Manny when it comes to mastering the English language though.

Well I've never seen a top 5 list with monzon or Hopkins on it but I would have hagler in my top 5 cause he beat genuine world class fighters and I don't care if they were smaller than him, I would love to see GGG even fight smaller fighters like cotto canelo Lara or even trout but that fact is he's faced very low level fighters so far and people are going a bit over the top with the hype and I personally just don't get it

Now GGG is a victim because people want him to fight a good fighter?

This shit has gotten out of hand. Let the man just retire now clearly he is the GOAT FFS!

First, welcome to the forum.

Stats only prove other stats exist much of the time. Manny has accomplished a hell of a lot more then the Kazak has but he's had the luxury of fighting in deep deep divisions with lots of name recognition and full of super stars that were willing to fight.

The Kazak is fighting in one division that is shy on name rec and those that have it would rather work in a factory in Bangladesh then fight him. He operates in a division loaded with posers and fake titles that is enabled by the powers at be. Manny could get people (stars) to drop weight as a challenger and pay them 20 million dollars.

They operate/operated on two completely different fields of play.

To the question its almost like asking who was better Armstrong or Burley? If you merely look at the resumes its Armstrong but if you dig deeper and look closely, Burley got frozen out just like Golovkin.
Moore was the only one to escape that crew and it took him 160 fights to do it.

I think Golovkin is a far better all around fighter then Manny based on the eye test but that does not translate into the same fame when you don't get what little star power that is around to the ring. I can also see it the other way. If you could take a Manny to middle and carry with him the exact same tool box I suppose he could win.

GGG is a very exciting fighter, bashing every one up very impressively innee?
