    People like to focus on the power,but not the footwork and ring IQ that allows that power to be delivered at the right time and angle

      I think Golovkin is extremely talented and skilled for the style he fights with.

When you watch those guys they have attributes that really catch your attention and make you go wow!! Golovkin is a nice likeable dude but he just doesn't wow me. People on this forum get too carried away with punchers I guess.
          He doesn't have huge names on his record but his fights over Bute and Dirrell in the amateurs impressed me. I know it's the amateurs but sometimes those things tell you a lot about fighters.

          He has huge power that get people to watch his fight and he has boxing ability as well. He seems to always be in position to be able to punch.

            Canelo's combinations don't impress you?
