    Lets keep telling porkies and stay on the happy ggg train.
    F*** that happy ggg train that is an LSD train of hallucination. His level of competition has not really been so good and therefore he is looking so stellar. Boxing nowadays does not have a Marvin Hagler who would come forward and decapitate GGG. The ring doctor would be picking up a head which was rolling on the canvas after Marvelous Marvin Hagler physically decapitated him. He cannot fight a steamroller who comes forward and doesn't take a step back he would get his head bashed in his chin has still not even been tested.
    Hmm well none of the other so-called great middleweights in the last 40 years fought anyone either. They made their grade by beating up x-welters long out of their prime. One could easily argue that the Kazak has fought stiffer middleweight competition then any of them. The guy also wants to stay and unify and there's nothing wrong with that and its admirable because its rarely done w/o the stars aligning. Even if the others cant beat him well that's their problem. The others could not beat Bernard or Hagler either but they still fought. He also does not have the luxury of having any superstar welters jumping up to fight him which was common place in other eras either because they could no longer make weight or they just wanted to challenge themselves. Today when they cant make weight and feel to small to move up they merely make another weight class. The other 160 pound paper weights find every reason in the book not to fight him save David with "business" being the lamest and the welters today would rather off themselves. No other middleweight has had to deal with that kind of avoidance ever. Fact is, he's been just as dominant a middleweight champion as any other in the modern era and one could argue more so with relative ease. He's beaten more actual middleweights then most of them and done so much more impressively and years ahead of them.

    I actually think Cotto would do better against Golovkin than Alvarez. Alvarez's feet are far too slow for him to do any damage against Golovkin but at least Cotto could box him on the back foot for a few rounds before he got flattened.
