Golovkin Busted Up Groves Ribs In Sparring?

it's just sparring but GGG would wreck Groves if they fought. He has the boxing and the punching power to hurt Groves.

;14798285']Groves might have knocked Golovkin down, but then when he got back to his feet, he worked him over with body shots. Golovkin is more of a body puncher than a head hunter at this point in his career; whereas Groves is kind of the reverse. He's mainly a head hunter when he fights, so it's not surprising at all that he may have put Golovkin down on the canvas. Putting Golovkin down and keeping him down are two different things. That's perhaps how Groves ended up with the rumored rib injury from the spar. GGG goes hard if you go hard. He goes slow if you go slow. That's my interpretation from watching him spar anyway.

I can confirm Groves, Linares, Murata and one of the Jackson brothers were in big bear with Golovkin. Not sure what happened but Murata sparred with Golovkin at some point.

Groves dropped him hard, saw it with my own eyes. Was there any videos?

I can believe GGG got dropped more incentive for him to break Groves Ribs in retaliation.

Yea of course everyone will believe the story about GGG WINNING

Groves dropped him hard, saw it with my own eyes.

Golovkin is a beast

Holy **** man!!! Amazing ****ing sig pic! thx, m8 :fing02:

When he decides to use it? So he "decides" to get punched in the face instead? Actually, yes. To take the opponent in 5-6 rounds rather than risking to go the distance he often forget about the defence and just chase them down.. once he goes up that will change.

I think this is one of the biggest misconceptions around here. Genady actually has a great defence once he decides to use it. You can watch a few of his amateur fights. Now as nobody really troubled him with the power he goes into all offence mode. On top of that, the stats say the percentage with which his opponents connect on him is quite low.

I am not saying GGG is Floyd, but to say that he gets hit whenever the other guy chooses to hit him is just not true. Everybody focus on those few shots he was hit in Stevens fight, but actually Stevens was swinging and missing much more often than not. You don't go 300+ amateur fights (winning >95%) with a poor defence. but we will see, maybe even tonight.. Holy **** man!!! Amazing ****ing sig pic!

That's what I was thinking. Groves is in Big Bear. Hmm Right, it's not like big Bear is a jump, skip and hop from Groves' neck of the woods.

I thought he showed terrible defense vs Adama and Stevens. When Stevens decided to punch, he landed. He also showed very poor defense vs Gardner and Ouma. If I was a Golovkin fan, defense would be the last thing I would hype up. You should just keep hyping up his power. His defense is OK, not great but not awful. Let's not act like Stevens landed everything he threw : http://abload.de/img/insta023ecjs0.gif

I wouldn't hype up any stats based on what his 'opponents' landed on him either, considering the 'opponents' he's faced so far. Either way, he's a good offensive fighter, not a good defensive fighter. You'll always get those fans that somehow manage to see a defensive, counter punching expert that rivals Floyd Mayweather in him though. Defensive, counter punching expert that baits opponents into punching him square in the face, while he waits for more counter punches to land on him before crushing them with GGG might.

So they brought in Groves to emulate the movement of Geale? That's what I was thinking. Groves is in Big Bear. Hmm
