Apparently you lack reading comprehension. I'm tired of explaining basic concepts.dberry wrote:Stevenson had arguably the power edge, Lemuix a size advantage, Geale had speed to his advantage and doesn't the GGG-Proksa fight exist in your world? Anyhow, forget that, so you're saying that we shouldn't yet consider GGG to be the best current middleweight yet, then are saying that he has all those advantages over the other middleweights!? Wow, just wow.Cygnus475 wrote:Name one boxer he fought who had the advantage in any of these categories:

-speed
-ring iq
-power

-experience
-stamina
He has advantages over almost every opponent he's fought and hasn't truly been tested or overcame adversity like all the other greats.
What I'm saying is until that day comes we wont truly l know how great he is. Anyone can have the best stats, but stats don't matter if you can't use them while under pressure to find a way to win.
Anyone can have the best stats but they can't be called the best until they've actually beaten the best competition available. Wladmir has reach, height, power, stamina, and technique advantages over many of his opponents, but I consider him great because he's proven it against the best boxers of his generation. He overcame adversity, fought people who had some x factors that neutralized his own abilities and cleared out his division. Ggg hasnt. There are plenty of highly ranked fighters he has yet to fight so no, I'm not about to put him on the same pedastol as hagler, monzon, or robinson.
