People are talking as though GGG is a hype job invented by the network. The Guy has garnered that attention by Knocking guys out left right and centre and looking classy while doing so. Being from Kazakhstan is not really going to attract a lot of hangers on and neutrals if he was not supplying the goods. The better the fighter you put him in with the more he ups his game. There is no better Middleweight at the moment than Martinez and that is why Golovkin would be in his element. There is little money in it for a guy like Sergio at the end of his career and so he will probably be avoided but Geale and Quillin should be next on GG's radar. They will look like an easy breakfast.
Fan's are overrating him because of his amatuer record not just HBO. He's not the wrecking ball he's being portrayed as, he's busting guys up not icing them, and it's against c/d level competition.

Sergio has beaten 7 middleweights in a row that are superior to anyone Golovkin has ever faced. You may be right that he'll perform better up in class, but that has to be proven.
I predict he will put Sergio on his back.
