I said for 2021, son! If Charlo would fight Andrade, then it's a better competitive match.

But what about :

Bottom line is GGG had a very hard road as a foreign&non english speaking fighter , yet he succeeded with hard work, being a clean athlete, humbleness and dedication to strive and become a boxing star@ MW.

Imagine if GGG was from US, Mexico, Uk or Puerto Rico, his road to become a boxing star would've been much easier.

AND: What people tend to forget or neglected is the difference in age between GGG and Canelo,Jacobs and Chenko! Canelo was/is 8 YEARS YOUNGER THAN GGG, Jacobs was/is 5 years younger than G and Chenko was/is 4 years younger than G!


G deserves even more credit bc of these things!

Quite right.

Where you started from and which route you were forced to take should always be taken into consideration.

Few who ever managed to scale the same heights would have had it much harder than GGG.

And Manny Pacquiao might be one of those few.

And before Manny, there was a certain Mike Tyson...
Yep Pac too. He had a very,very hard road.

So, it tells us a lot about how good GGG was when at 35 y/o technically beat a 27 y/o Canelo. :TU:
Quick question, how many offers did Universum or K2 make to GGG’s peers that were ultimately rejected by Gennadiy’s elite-level world-rated peers?

To help you understand context, Golovkin used to generate some of HBO’s biggest audience figures, but for a long time his paydays were much smaller than fellow HBO stablemates that attracted smaller numbers.

It’s a plot hole that GGG’s fans actively refuse to discuss.

If you need stats (i.e. Nielsen viewing or purse figures), then consider it done if you doubt my claims.
