"Sergey sparred with Golovkin 5 or 6 times...had some very good, heated sparring sessions...sparring is sparring...that stuff has to stay in the gym...I'm not going to say it happened, I'm not going to say it didn't happen...it doesn't matter if it did,"
What's the funny is, it was Abel Sanchez himself who spread this whole sparring story out to hype GGG's name.
Sanchez described the encounter to Hustleboss.com as a mismatch. He stated, “He was one of the sparring partners that we had. He was with me for about a year and a half. Really Kovalev was afraid of Golovkin when he was in the ring. I couldn’t spar him too much because he showed too much respect for Golovkin. He just fell apart in their with Golovkin.”
Abel Sanchez on Kovalev: GGG handled him easily in sparring. I would have no problem accepting that fight in the future. I kicked Kovalev out of my camp because of character, moral, & loyalty issues. - grantland.com
This guy is the most hilarious individual in this sport.
That sour faced douche has been running his mouth for years about what happened in sparring. What a massive twat.
Sadly, half the Golovkin fans think they need to defend this guy by proxy. Guys, it's OK to Love Golovkin and not like Sanchez. They're two different people. I promise!
This is true and isn't said enough.
HUGE GGG fan, but Abel Sanchez is a bit of a doofus. Can't deny he's right for GGG so far though.

At least other trainers like Roach had some humor in their trash talk and some of it was obvious trolling. And not to mention that Roach has actually trained real legends and hall of famers.
I think that's a smart statement. ^ People hate on Roach but what Freddie does is industry-standard "We're gonna knock him out in the 2nd round." kind of promotional kind of stuff. He sometimes giggles as he says it.
Abe is on some bizarre, personal trolling shyt. He doesn't just make up predictions in the way every coach does, he actually lies about things that have happened, postures (then flounders), manipulates information, and seems to denigrate others in order to bolster his favored fighter. He had Barrera ill-prepared for Ward, then threw Barrera right under the bus to save face.
It's a shame for GGG that he catches flack for so much of the stuff Abe says.
Abel is having fun trolling the crap out of you. He reads here once in a while and cant stop smiling. Meanwhile he is having the time of his life training the most exciting fighter in the sport.
Yup stankchez aftually made those comments to piss off nsb posters.
:rofl: jubei youre a dork

Golovkin is my favorite boxer, but I can't stand Abel. It's just funny how so many GGG fans have to defend him. It's like you're not allowed to criticize Sanchez or his management team or you'll be labeled a "GGG hater."
Sanchez might be a decent trainer, but he runs his mouth way too much and makes GGG look bad by association. At least other trainers like Roach had some humor in their trash talk and some of it was obvious trolling. And not to mention that Roach has actually trained real legends and hall of famers.
Abel is just legitimately full of himself. Wouldn't be surprised if he threw Golovkin under the bus when he loses one day.
The bold there is what i don't get with boxing fans, I see it all the time with fans on here, they feel they had to defend Arum because he is affiliated with Cotto, they feel they had to defend Roach because he is affiliated with Pacman, they feel they had to defend Haymon because he is affiliated with TBE. You can defend or like the fighter without puting yourself in his team.
Yea, I don't get it. It seems to affect certain fans more than others. Do you see Ward fans defending Virgil, Khan, or Angulo because they're part of Team Hunter?? Hell no.
But, it's not really just that one fanbase is better than another because we see tons of fans who jump from one "type" of fighter to another within a category, be it only black, only light-skinned, only British, only Eastern Euro, etc. If you're backing fighters only because of their geographic origin or genetic make up, you're a cheerleader for a certain color or nation, not a fan of boxing.
I think that's where the great divide lies in this forum. Not black vs white, not euro vs US, not action vs technician, it's boxing fans vs the cheerleaders.
Lol, yea, that was embarrassing. I liked Pac and I still found myself agreeing against his fans on here all the time because some were so awful. As annoying as things are now, I'd be lying if I said they weren't just as bad during the May/Pac days.
And look where we're at now, Pac has a fight coming up and you can't beg people into talking about it. There are no rowboats left on the SS Pacquiao. Everyone jumped ship and they're waving the Kazakh banner now.
Amazing isn't it?

reminds me of all the p@ct@rds who loved Ariza til he left
once he left: "Mayweather hired Ariza for his shakes"

Look at this dweeb thinking golovkins trainer reads his posts.
"Don't believe it...it's not my coach...he was very disappointed...I left his training camp...if you don't see video...in sparring, everything can happen...nothing bad if somebody like got a body shot or something,"
That's why Abel Sanchez is trying to take his words back...lol

Yea no kidding. I am a GGG fan and I am not impressed with Abel Sanchez. Never have been.
