    Unless GGG pulls a Nunn, Kalambay would out-box him 9-3

    GGG def has a puncher's chance but if he had trouble consistently landing on guys like Jacobs and Canelo, I don't like his chances of doing so on a guy Mike McCallum had trouble laying his gloves on

    Kalambay is too slick. He'd win a decision.

    Oooh. This is a really good MM to be fair. Kalambay was the shit, I think Golovkin is as well. Fuck. You know what, I lean slightly towards Kalambay but that's only because he had the luxury of having really good opponents to fight, so I guess he's more proven. I still say GGG's boxing skill is seriously underrated.

    I think it’s hard for any boxer without a flashy potent offense to clearly out point GGG because of that jab. Kalambay wouldn’t be able to move GGG but that jab scores whenever it touches. Kalambay had a good chin but he wasn’t made of iron. He was down a badly hurt other than the Nunn fight.

    I’ll take the GGG from 3 or 4 years ago by close UD or a stoppage at some point.

    I think Kalambay might get off to an early lead, but GGG increasingly finds him as the fight progresses and stops him late.
