Curtis Stevens and Gabriel Rosado were able to stay on their feet and let their corner stop the fight . I dont see this guy hurting Ward, Kessler, and especially Froch. He'll be the smaller guy with the smaller reach in those fights, he'll have trouble.
I don't see why his power wouldn't translate to 168. It's not like he's routinely OPKO'ing guys (Ishida/Macklin the exceptions)
He usually breaks his opponent down, which is what he did tonight, and it's what he did to Rosado and Proksa
His boxing skills alone would allow him to be successful at 168 IMO
kessler would beat the living crap out of golovkin. first thing (since we are talking about bums) green has one punch knock out power. (what ever else you think of him cool) but the man has one punch knock out power at 168. kessler got rid of him in 4 rounds. ouma is a c plus fighter with powder puff fist & he busted up golovkins face & even rocked him numerous of times.........(i guess you can throw the green comparison outta the door) kessler has a hard chin & is proven, he throws punches in combinations & he has a high guard. not only that but he has a high punch output behind that high guard. kessler sits in the middle of the ring & he will combination you to death all night long right in the middle of the ring. when you throw combinations at golovkin it instantly holts his offense (& we're talking about kessler who hits like a truck & has no stamina issues whats so ever. this is NOT stevens) how the hell does anyone see that fight for golovkin is beyond me....... & a lot of people have forgotten that golovkin has bad skin. once you start to tee off on him in the right way he gets cut, bruised & swelled easily. froch is notorious for having very tough skin & stiff chin. if froch comes out swinging like a wild man he'd probably break away golovkins skin and bust him up pretty early. also bika.......bika is one of those guys who gave calzaghie a go ward a go & handled himself well against bute. he's gonna take what ever golovkin dishes out and he's gonna dish it right back to him. the reason that i say that bika will have a chance to give golovkin all he can handle is because golovkin breaks down when he can't hurt you with his power (he turns into a sloppy mess) bika feeds on such fighters.
golovkin eye bruised up against rosado call 911 ... jesus people keep bringing up ouma .. every great fighter have fights like that before they hit there peak every one to many examples to name he still put ouma hospital for 2 days also he never rocked him or "buckled" him ive seen that fight twice ... also his face wasnt bad at all held up well LOL espicially for that type of fight! its not crazy swelling at all just lil also no blood or anything wrong on that ... now after curtis who was knocking out 168 pounders moved down to 160 (i know this is when you rip curtis resume) .. hit ggg flush again his face look great after... its a fight **** happens ... curtis can crack ..you make it sound like his face is like gatti's ...now to green i dont call fighters joke at all never do but allan green is one..frail mind frail everything he hit kessler like nothing kessler is a robot!! kessler is good thats it you said he's elite.. i said name one great orrrrr very good fighter he beat smh because besides froch which i didnt think he won thats it buddy he never beat anyone how can he be elite ... he looks slow mechanical no feet work jab throw jab throw blahh and like i said he's older now looks like he wanted to quit against froch last fight .... then you giving me what bika did like i didnt know thats why i said he's a great keeper but gasses out to quick doesnt have no snap to his punches slaps ... ggg body attack would wear bika down just watch all his Ls and watch his last fight .. tough dude.. but really? always off balanced this is coming from a bika fan ... please stop saying kessler just please lol ... go rewatch him and tell me... no variation in his punches same sequence 95% of the time .... froch i said it was 50-50 due to his toughness and size but like i said before if you trading with golovkin you better watch out .... Rosado Curtis Macklin Proska go corner to corner in clottey shell .. golovkin has to beat thru arms gloves body .. Proska tried open down macklin open up went flying to the ropes curtis throws a right opens ggg gets underneath left hook left hook down he goes face was like oh **** .. trading shots ggg puching thru people volleys ..now if froch wants to go open throwing craziness face first then it will be fun .... another thing not saying hes better! but peole wont talk this and people don't understand this ..stevens hand speed the fiber twitch is alot quicker than froch and kessler ... ggg enjoy seeing telegraphic punches .. stevens has solid speed his feet could be planted but throw off a 3 punch combination .. now froch kessler wont be able to do nor have great hand speed..for them is that jab jab throw thats what they do ... jesus a small broken down jermaine taylor was up on all scorecards against big ole froch until the 12 ... taylor is solid but not a 168 pounder imo ggg is better all around.. time will tell ...taylor hurt froch a few times espicially in the 3rd he hurt him dropped him with a over hand right! froch landed on his ass looked around looked at the time my friend golovkin has better power than taylor i hate comparing but froch fights one way if taylor could do that to a young froch ggg can against older worn out froch bam!!! lol i can keep ranting on .... just finishing it with froch 50-50 andre ward would give ggg hell and if adonis come down to 168 again would give ggg hell still will love to see it happpen peace damn i think i broke the record for longest post sad but Pigsfly be saying some ridiculous matter fact statements smh
If anything, Andre has gone downhill and GGG is improving. Anthony has fought nobody and had his hands full with Don Mouton. Plus, he looks a bit shook up in the eyes already.
In the Dan Mouton fight Anthony Dirrell won clearly in that fight.The reason Dan Mouton had his moments is because Anthony Dirrell chose to slug it out with him a lot,because he knew Mouton could`nt hurt him.When he chose to box him he had a much easier time.Against GGG,Anthony Dirrell would have more respect for GGG so he likely would box GGG all night.Its like in Danny Garcia`s fight with Khan,Danny Garcia chose to slug it out with Khan cause he knew Khan couldn`t hurt him.But against Kendall Holt and Walter Mathysse,Danny Garcia chose to box them from the outside cause those guys can punch.
As far as Andre Dirrell goes, he just needs to be active and he`ll be sharp. Both Dirrells would box GGG from the outside and tie them up on the inside.Plus Andre Dirrell is a south paw and both Dirrell`s got speed and power.
be quiet man .. stop saying kessler .. jesus that dude is not great at all .. and result of allan green hurting him allan green!! lol froch beat him up moving him back ..also being older there is no way you honestly believe kessler beats golovkin .. kessler is mechanical not the most fluid becomes a cradle when throwing at him .. no body movement actually never beat a very good fighter ever! i cant remember one win against a great or very good fighter am i the only one that sees this? also im a fan of froch .. but if he coming in like crazy man like he does trading shots head straight up thats a toss up ... bika great gatekeeper went to war with periban man smh periban looked like he was throwing arm puches the whole fight people had him loosing that one bika actually gassed out in the middle rounds also doesnt have no snap in his punches throws craziness head in the air .. saying nonsense .. ward is that dude thats all .. froch 50-50 and if adonis can make 168 again

I know he fought Andre Dirrell in the amateurs,but i don`t know if he ever fought Anthony Dirrell in the Amateurs.I heard the fight with Andre Dirrell was competitive.But that was the amateurs and fighters do improve.And judging from what i`m seeing in the professionals,i have no doubt that the Dirrell brothers would beat GGG.

They're good but that "destroy" talk is foolish, don't forget GGG beat Andre Dirrell in the amateurs.
Don`t forget it was the amateurs GGG beat Dirrel in.Floyd lost in the amateurs also,but i`m pretty sure the fighters he lost to in the Amateurs would get their butts handed to them by Floyd now in the pros.Floyd is the P4P number 1 now but the fighters who beat him in the Amateurs are nowhere to be found.They not even ranked in the top 100.
Explain then how GGG already beat they ass.

dude, thats a link about macklin vs golovkin (not stevens)
& in that link i said to mark my words. macklin gets ko'd (& it will be one of the easiest ko's ever witness)
so who's the real troll here.
Excuse Pigsfly ,his overhyping of triple GGG has side effects like being delusional and accusing others of saying things that they didn`t say.
OK keep sleeping on Anthony Dirrell,whose 6`2,Very skilled(way more skilled then then GGG who has very overated boxing skills)who have speed and can hit like a mule.While GGG whose 5` 10,has very flawed,and not as fast as or skilled as Dirrell.

The Dirrell brothers would destroy GGG,both of them are huge compared to GGG,they got speed(especially Andre Dirrell),got really good boxing skills,and hit like a mack truck,(especially Anthony Dirrell).

Lol... GGG already beat Andre in the amateurs, back when 'dre wasn't as scared as he now is. :boxing:
The only fighter I would heavily favor at 168 would be Ward. His style isn't good for GGG. I think GGG's power would translate to 68, but no one knows for sure until he actually moves up.

say what you will but fights are won in the ring & not by potential or anything like that............
froch ward kessler all will beat up golovkin.........
golovkin gets frustrated alone when he can't hurt you with his power (he starts to look sloppy) kessler ward froch are at the elite. he's not koing ether of these guys because they know how to take shots........when you're fighting at the elite your ko percentage goes way down.
golovkin gets beaten badly against ether of these guys...in fact bika would stand a good chance to push golovkin to his limits.
be quiet man .. stop saying kessler .. jesus that dude is not great at all .. and result of allan green hurting him allan green!! lol froch beat him up moving him back ..also being older there is no way you honestly believe kessler beats golovkin .. kessler is mechanical not the most fluid becomes a cradle when throwing at him .. no body movement actually never beat a very good fighter ever! i cant remember one win against a great or very good fighter am i the only one that sees this? also im a fan of froch .. but if he coming in like crazy man like he does trading shots head straight up thats a toss up ... bika great gatekeeper went to war with periban man smh periban looked like he was throwing arm puches the whole fight people had him loosing that one bika actually gassed out in the middle rounds also doesnt have no snap in his punches throws craziness head in the air .. saying nonsense .. ward is that dude thats all .. froch 50-50 and if adonis can make 168 again
He's the strongest fighter at Middleweight...
I'm not going out on a limb when I say that his power is going to move up with him (physical strength does play a part in punching power... when I say physical strength... it's not a good looking physique!)... One division above isn't that far to take away his strength advantage (it was enough for Ricky Hatton... not enough for a JCC Sr.).
That, his skills/talent, and ring generalship is what is going to have him winning the higher weight classes. Unless the fighter has an incredible will, Golovkin will dictate where the fight is fought and will win because of it. Except for Andre Ward, there are very few fighters that can stop Golovkin from doing what he wants to do when he wants to do it even at Super Middleweight...
I don't know if GGG should move up to 168. If he can fight at 154, he should try to get some fights there. Also, stay at 160 and unify. His power is definitely there. To make fighters quit, or get corners to stop the fight, means that the power is definitely there. He's giving his opponents beatings. Maybe he should move up to 168, I think he can hang. He's got a good chin, too.

Elite or not, anybody can get KO'd. Mares is elite and still got KO'd by Gonzalez, Dawson is elite and got KO'd by Stevenson. This is boxing.
His Power is not the question is is suppose boxing skills. GGG's defense is crap and he does know how to really box, or fight off the back foot neither. He will go as long a his power allows him. When somebody takes his punch his doomed.
Another thing is he sparred Cotto(They won't say anything do to confidiality agreement) and Cotto boxed his ears off for 6 rounds or so. Golovkin is no better than Lucas Mathysse, wich isn't bad at all, that's good, but he won't beat the real elites
That's BS, they didn't spar because of scheduling conflict, you can look it up. Golovkin is better than Matthysse, it's obvious to anybody who knows boxing. Yes GGG doesn't know how to really box, that's why he's 345-5 as an amateur with a gold medal in the amateur world championships and a silver medal in the olympics. :pat:
