Both Stevens and Macklin suck.

That's the truth.

[Russian Crushin]

Macklin was very easy but it should be just as easy. Macklin was a better fighter then Stevens anyway, in fact Stevens has lost to worse fighters

I'll bet you that Stevens does better than Macklin. 44 billion points....you in?

"Better" in what sense?

But I'll take it

Stevens will either last longer than Macklin did or he will win more rounds than Macklin or he will hurt/drop GGG or he just won't lose the fight. If any of those happen I win.

Should I sig it?

what Abel Sanchez is forgetting is styles

Stevens struggles with boxers who move and use angles. being defensively responsible, head movement, side stepping, keeping your guard up and all that.

Stevens struggles with boxers who make him have to think.


GGG doesn't do much of that. his head is stationary, it never moves. Golovkin is a front foot fighter, his feet need to be planted in order for him to get off and he gets hits, just look at his face after his fight with Ouma or Rosado.

Golovkin has never faced a big puncher, maybe Stevens is or maybe he isn't. if he is then Golovkin could be in some problems if he gets caught.


I think Stevens is going to shock him and KO him.

call me crazy but I think style wise a brawler usually beats a pressure fighter

[Tobi.G]

Sanchez is right. Stevens is a Mutt and Golovkin is a real Bulldog! Hehe

[Cuban Linx]

"A mutt will always be a mutt"... LOL, damn that's cold.

I think you're misjudging Golovkin. He is a front foot pressure fighter, and I guess we're used to such fighters letting it hang out a bit, but watch GGG use the ring, use the angles, watch him snatch up a tight guard or move his head just so when an opponent takes the offensive. Watch the pressure snap back on the very moment his opponent pauses - losing momentum or catching a breath.

Anyways - I'm sure you've heard it before, just watch on Saturday and if you can't see what Gennady is doing right, I bet you'll just come away thinking 'why did Stevens suddenly get so rubbish?'.
