I like Geale so I don't want to talk bad about him. But, I think most boxing fans would rank Maidana above Geale p4p. At the time Floyd fought Guerrero, he would have been higher on almost every p4p list than Geale was when he fought GGG.

Whatever man, Kovalev and GGG are the greatest fighters ever. Happy?

Now you came to senses :) I don't know about Kovalev: he has a suspect chin, but Golovkin has a potential to be among greatest. Unfortunately he got only about 3 years of prime left to achieve that.

...well, he keeps fighting the best 4 times a year and your dreams might come true :)

Boxers are going on longer these days. Anyway he looks about 12 so he might have a fresher than normal body for his age lol

ggg is 32

hopkins was 43 when he beat pavlik and looked as good as ever

all i am saying is, in todays generation, with better training grounds, nutrition, doctors, medicine....you can box prime time far more longer than back than.
i think ggg can box at his top level of now until ~ 38 age. so, he got 6 years left to beat cotto, canelo, quillon, froch, direll, ward and be amongs atg.

Hopkins is a freak of nature.And until someone else accomplishes what he is doing, bringing it up is insane.
Being a top performer at 40 plus is not the norm

Golovkin grew up in a coal miner family in bad neighborhood. It couldn't have been very environmentally friendly. I would say his prime will be over at 35, 37 tops.

GGG and Sanchez have both said that he will fight for four more years, maybe five, and wants to continue fighting four times per year.
16 more fights, let's hope he can get some big names and PPV fights in there!
