Gennady Golovkin vs. Ishe Smith on Nov 21

[The Hammer]

How many times have we seen Ishe Smith not do enough to win?

There was Powell, Julio and who did he fight last, ah Jacobs.

He sure was confident that he'll defeat Golovkin in the interview.

Golovkin is an intelligent fighter with world-class punching power. He figured out a way to counter punch and land on the very fast Andre Dirrell in the 2004 Olympics, by being able to predict his movements.

Yes. This is list of results from Team USA during 2003. It says Dirrell beat him 15-14 during a USA-Kazakhstan dual in May; I believe it's on the 23rd page, or around there. http://assets.teamusa.org/assets/doc...03_Results.pdf

This was an article written after Dirrell's lost to Golovkin in Athens. It mentions his prior victory over Golovkin. http://www.boston.com/sports/article...es_for_bronze/

Okay, I see it.

But yes, when it counted most, in the Olympics, Golovkin won. Sad to see his coach Bradley crying over the loss, he should have been a good sport and given Golovkin credit. Good to see that Dirrell acknowledged he hadn't done enough to deserve to win.

Glad to see him step it up he is 27 after all.... golovkin has a excellent amateur record,but he seems small for middle weight... he handles smith although.
