    Solid middleweight fight but Golovkin should beat him handily, probably by stoppage.

      It still bothers me how Martinez knocked Macklin out and the judges didn't even have the decency to finish scoring the rest of the fight.

        Yes, getting KO'd by Martinez is, in fact, getting "robbed." Too bad your boyfriend Chavez is afraid of Golovkin and the ass-kicking he would receive from GGG.

        But quality fight for Golovkin. KO9th would be my guess

          Agendas man. That wasn't a KO, that was an intentional head butt. Sergio should've been DQ'd, at the very least go to the scorecards, where Macklin should've been up 12 rounds to 0

            Golovkin is a no nonsense monster. He will walk through Macklin and Martinez too.

              This is great to hear. With the network split HBO should really be pushing Gennady towards great things! I expect it

                Good test for GGG, finally see how good he really is. If he wins impressively a lot more people will sit up and take note.

                Time to see what the kid's got.

                    Decent step up for GGG. Have to give Matthew credit for taking the fight even though I see Golovkin doing a job on him.
