    I think if he knocked Stevens out early without any issues like he was supposed to he wouldn't have been given much criticism.

    The only criticism he would have got would have been the choice of opponent which needs no explanation.

      Uh, thats smart fighting. If he did otherwise, clowns like you would call him a brawler.

        He really is crap when hes forced on the back foot. His accuracy is poor, I seen Stevens slip 30 consecutive punches he made Stevens look like Pernell Whitaker ffs
        Hes only really effective when he has a guy trapped on the ropes.

        He is THE most overrated fighter in boxing history.
        Actually his defence is pretty good, it looked like he was taking more punches than he was. Golovkin was wary of Stevens' power, mainly because Steven's left hook is fast as well as powerful. Stevens shortness and long arms really worked to his advantage tonight as he tucked up really nice.

        Good to very good from Golovkin, certainly the right tactics for all future opponents is to move towards him and try and push him back.

          Not seen the Ouma fight, obviously.
          I saw it. I think that had more to do with GG sleeping in an airport tbh. Looked like a completely different fighter. I wouldn't say there's a stylistic weakness, just a poor night.

            Yeah.

            Gold interview and epic knockdown face

            Ronin... >__>... Are you insinuating Sergio is or can somehow get healthy? At his age with those injuries? In GGGs words.. "you serious?"

              GREAT chin!
              This. At least we now know for sure that he isn't deficient in that department.
              Can we please get 3G vs. a top 10 guy now?


              Hopefully Quillin doesn't turn around and fight Stevens next.

                Boxing fans are crazy lol. If he KO'ed him in 1, "another bum/tomato can/cab driver etc. when is he gonna fight somebody good." He beats the **** out of him for 8 eounds and they say he was exposed. Smh.

                  Never been hurt apparently amateur or pro.

                  He's got a good chin.

                  That's one thing we can take from this fight. Golovkin can take a good shot.

                    Your bad. You need to watch more fights.

                      Dave Chappel did a great job as ref tonight. Glad to see he has employment options.
