HBO Tripleheader: Salido-Garcia, Golovkin-Rosado, Martinez-Burgos Discussion thread

Mikey is the man. Absolute domination.

I hate that people are *****ing about the ending. in 8 rounds he dominated the fight enough to win 3 times over. This is a business, he had literally nothing else to prove...Salido flings his head in there, severely breaks Mikey's nose and than it's like "dishonorable" or some ****** *****. Please.

Anyone remember Izzy vazquez/Marquez 1? Yet people don't say **** about Vazquez.

Mikey is a pro's pro. Perfect movement, not afraid to smother a pressure fighter and break his momentum, doesn't yield to the bull***** pressure to just go to war. Patient, has pop, has a great sense of distance...I don't have a negative word to say about the kid.

Burgos got robbed, that is what i hate about fights that go to the cards you never know what idiot judge is sleeping during the fight. Rosado was just to inexperienced for Golovkin even though Rosado showed a ton of heart he is just so green that is what happens when you start late and have no amateur exp. Golovkin is a very solid fighter and could hang with anybody at his weight. Salido looked old against Garcia and it looked as if Garcia could of got rid of him at any time but chose to stay back and be patient which cost him a broken nose and a ****ty way to win the title if there is a ****ty way...Can't wait for Zab vs. Garcia should be a good one the winner should fight the dad...

Did anyone score any rounds in Rosado's favor? I gave him rounds 4-5. I thought he outboxed and out landed Golovkin in those rounds even though he got hit with the harder shots.

i thought he won round 5 by a good bit. I think GGG thought so too because he seemed to pick it up the next round.

Round 4 was questionable but I thought he definitely (lennox) won round 5. That clown Harold Lederman had it for GGG though...

After the 5th GGG realized that he wasn't putting on the performance he or the HBO people expected. To his credit, he fought better the next round.

Lederman has had as many bad days as he had good days in the last year or two.

He was probably awed by Golovkin's punching power and all Rosado's blood..
