GGG is a -3000 favorite, outrageous Rosado is not a bum.

I honestly see no chance GGG loses. Most times I'll give a guy the all-too-cliche "puncher's chance."

Nah.. laugh.gif

I feel like GGG is on top of the world right now.

I don't even think Martinez got this much hype after he knocked out Paul Williams.

Martinez wasn't 30 years old when he knocked out Paul Williams, nor was he undefeated. We all know Sergio has a questionable chin, and that's what makes him so exciting.

GGG is undefeated with 24 wins, 21 by knockout. He seems to have a solid chin, an even more solid arsenal of punches.

When I watched a ton of GGG's fights when he first hit the scene, I saw him take some pretty good shots, not really from anyone too big, but he walked RIGHT through them. He's not like your Canelo Alvarez-type where his defense is poor, either.

He knocked out Proksa, and now he's on top of the world. He's on the right path but still has a lot to prove before he deserves that distinction.

When I said on top of the world, I didn't literally mean that. I'm talking figuratively, laugh.gif . He FEELS as if he's on top of the world, because he's the best new thing about boxing in 2012.

That was actually what I gathered from all the praise he's getting. The way I perceive him is how some people thought of Canelo 1-2 years ago.

I never bought into the Canelo hype, personally. He just seems far too bland, and nothing stands out. He's not an excellent boxer, he's shown you can hit him, and there's not much that thrills me about him.

^It's mostly his age and how he's self made, you can argue at 22 his resume is better than 30 year old Golovkin

Sure, that may be true, but it's a lot easier for a guy out in Mexico to make it big than it is a no-name out of Kazakhstan.

I'm not trying to make a case that Canelo is inferior to GGG, I just see more in Golovkin. Yeah, Canelo is young and will be around for a long time to come, and he will probably have the better career, but I just don't buy into Canelo right now.

If he comes through and fights Trout in May and then Mayweather in September, he very well may have two losses on that young record.

GGG did not look impressive at all TBH. It even looked like he was starting to gas.

GGG had a great nights work. Impressive enough that casual fans will start to take notice. Looked human enough so that he won't be avoided by other fighters.
