i like golovkin but if he cant beat this bum rosado, i dont think he can redeem himself from it at all....

As tempted as I am to question most Hype Trains, GGG definitely has more than "just power". That should be very apparent come Saturday.

That said, Rosado should stick to boxing and using his length. He might be able to pull off the upset that way, but I have a sneaking su****ion that Golovkin is the real thing.

Show me the fight that gave you the faith and I'll show you the fight that will change your religion.lol. Rosado in 11

All you guys picking Rosado - you should put your money where your mouth is - there are some good odds out there!

Oh man, that giant tattoo on rosados neck! GGG is gonna be using that as a target saturday night.

There is no denying Golovkin has decent power whilst it is somewhat unproven and I think Rosado has a bit of a shaky chin myself. I still can't help but think this kid has the tools to give Golovkin fcuking hell in there.

I hope his chin holds up, after seeing footage of him shaken badly against rather light punchers, I am just not so sure.

Rosado is going to derail the GGG train

This is what makes me favor GGG over Rosado despite being somewhat open to the idea of hype over Golovkin. Even if Golovkin turns out not to be the world beater people are making him out to be, it's quite obvious he has naturally heavy hands, and I don't think Rosado is the most durable guy on the planet.

when 1st heard about this fight I was sure Golovkin would win easy, I won't lie but after a little research I think Rosado has a real chance. and here's why

Rosado doesn't have a great record and was stopped by Angulo but in Rosado defence until 2012 Rosado was a full time construction worker. when you fight top 10 guys being a part time boxer won't cut and it showed in that fight.

if you watch his fights from 2012 Rosado has improved vastly. he must have something if Bernard Hopkins is mentoring him. his leg movement and upperbody movement have improved a lot. he's got fast hands and is a pretty good counter puncher.

what do we honestly know about Golovkin as a pro. no BS no hype.

he's got decent power, no denying that. he's destroyed a lot of C level guys, Proksa included but so did Tyrone Brunson. if Rosado can neturalize his power then what?

the only decent opponent he had was Kassim Ouma and he struggled. that was pretty close fight before GGG got the TKO in the 10th but Ouma did bust up GGG's face. Golovkin was tried after 4 rounds because he loads up on almost every shot. people want to believe he's super human but NO fighter can do that without getting tired.

all I know about GGG is he's a beast for 4 rounds and then starts to look normal. I know he get hits with everything he has no defense whatsoever.

boxing is all about styles and I think if the fight last more than 4 rounds Rosado has a good chance to take it because how many times have you seen a hard charging come foward bull get totally out classed by a boxer.
