Barker gives GGG a real go

[dan_cov]

This analysis is ******. You're picking one fight in which Golovkin was documented as being sick 2 days before and going into the fight. You also claim he has zero head movement which is a load of crap, he slips punches, especially the opponents jab very well, and he does have head movement. I have Macklin vs Golovkin HD and in the first damn 30s it starts with Golovkin moving his head slowly and constantly to figure out how Macklin will use his jab.

His defense is mostly his superb distance control and his ability to deflect punches with his forearms, he does it very often and it's part of his talent.

I could pick more examples but the facts are everytime a guys ever put up any resistance there has been the excuse he is sick

Well I'm sick as well, sick of hearing about the excuses because the guy contrary to belief actually is not invincible.

I know he has deceptively good defense, I am not saying he is bad or anything of the kind. We'll see how good his defense is when hes not fighting a guy in full survival mode pushing his shots.

Show me some video evidence putting his head movement on display. I've got 27 pro fights of his and around 50 amateur fights that say otherwise.

Is he?
Maybe we'll find out if GGG ever faces somebody anywhere near the level of Wlodarczyk.

Padded up amateur, padded up record as a pro.

Rakhim was fighting Wlodarczyk in only his 17th pro fight. 27 fights down the line and GGG has only just stopped fighting 154lb journeymen to fight barely top 10-15 not particularly durable fringe contenders in Macklin.

1) Lulz Padded amateur record. Gaydarbekov, Artayev, Dirrell, Bute, Korobov, Geale, Balanov, Prasathinpimai, Lee, Sjekloca, Mashkin, Despaigne. I honestly don't think i'v seen a more star studded amateur resume and his record is as good as anyone with 345-5. Chakhkiev's amateur resume and opponents are terrible by comparison.

2) Lulz 50 amateur fights please share them i only have 10. Lies won't help your cause. Check out the Ishida fight his defense is impressive in that one or the Dirrell amateur fight. Rosado who you said was competitive only averaged 10 punches landed a round, that would be a nice stat for Floyd forget about an aggressive stalker like GGG.

3) Rakhkim's promoter said before the fight that he didn't think he was ready for Wlodarczyk but due to him being 30 already they didn't want to wait longer. That's why his step up came earlier than Golovkin's and he would have fought Sturm, N'jikam, Mundine in 2010 around his 18th pro fight had they not all ducked him.

I'v always liked you as a poster you seriously need to stop though you're making yourself look really bad.

Hearn is clearly afraid/worried for Barker.

He has good reason to.

Lulz Forgot about that vid. Nicely played Sir.

Yeah, Hearn is pretty much saying he is going to suggest Barker to avoid Golovkin otherwise he'll lose. He says even Quilin would give a greater payday (lies) and will go for the fights that give him the biggest money with the least threat of loss... what a f@ggot, at least he's truthful I guess.

Martinez laid the blueprint out on how to beat Barker
Gennady will make him completely deaf in 4 rounds

[kiaba360]

Barker will be competitive for the first couple rounds until he gets hit flush, and that's when he'll start having problems. Nobody is gonna keep away from 3G for 12 rounds and it doesn't matter how well you can take a punch.

haven't seen much of Barker but as I recall he's the one that had the tighter winky esque defense.

Something like that couldn't hurt against GGG. But, I don't remember him winning many rounds against Sergio, just putting up his guard and weathering the storm until the storm was too much.

The same would happen against 3G. I don't remember Barker having that particularly good foot movement, he just throws his guard up and Gennady would find a way thru that, just as Sergio did.

[IronDanHamza]

Barker is certainly a lot more skilled and elusive than Macklin.

I don't see Barker getting smoked quickly like I expected for Macklin but I do expect him to get stopped.

Golovkin will hit Barker and he most definitely will hurt him.

ggg stops barker...martinez landed ONE barely clean right hook and it dropped barker easy..ggg would finish off barker MUCH quicker than martinez did..
