    Andrew Golota - boxing's nearly man

    What was it with that big man that he just couldn't behave or heed the refs warnings.

    In his first fight with Bowe after 7 rounds (when he was dq'd) he was ahead on all 3 judges score cards.

    In the second fight he also lead on all 3 cards after the 9th round.

    Then there is the devasting KO against Lewis and quitting against Grant.

    The man could certainly box, but there must have been something wrong mentally, especially in this 2 Bowe fights where if he continued to box he would have won a SD at least and should have went on to win at least one alphabet strap.

    Might have been hit on the head so much. He couldn't control himself. A combination to a person's groin after warnings from ref is no excuse.

      yeah and after warnings he kept at it.

      mind blowing considering he was winning the fight.

            Go to boxrec and look up the Lewis fight. I already explained it dozens of times, won't bother to do it again.
