    but Baldomir over Judah and Ishida over Kirkland were much bigger upsets.

    If he does manage to win than maybe he has a renewed dedication and the drop to 160 certainly helped him.
    Where would it rank with all the HBO push that Mr. Hayden Penittierre was receiving until Corrie Sanders walked off the Seniors golf tour and stopped him in two rounds?

    I say that if you're a long-time HBO Boxing customer like me you have to remember Winter 2003 and draw some similarities in the two as the next big thing in boxing ~ I was honestly becoming a believer with everything I had read in Ring magazine and its sister publications during the lead up to the Corrie Sanders fight . . . what happened

      It would actually be funny as hell. Even if I like GGG.

        If you get knocked out by a huge puncher, I don't think it means your chin is a serious issue.

        Murray would be the biggest threat if Golovkin loses. Also, Stevens would have to fight Murray next if Murray beats Wood in Australia.

          This is true. Tommy Hearns is a great example. It was till later in his career against guys that never fought under Middleweight like Tommy had and those guys had power. 154 and below, Hearns showed a solid chin. Leonard was the only one to hurt and stop him 154 and under, yet some still wrongfully claim he had a weak chin.

              Only way he loses is a single punch putting him out. Stevens one-shotting Golovkin would mean his chin is a problem.

                The thing in my eyes is, if GGG just tanks Stevens best shot, and takes him out, you think the guys at 160 are running now.....

                    Right, but only against Stevens (at 160) because not every fighter can hit like him.

                    Godlovkin :-). I'm actually a little worried about he damage he can do to British boxing next year. Conceivably, he could take out Murray, Froch and Barker in 2014. I'd still rather they fought him than ducked him though like Sturm and N'Dam.

                      If that happens, he has no choice but to move up. Think of how much that would mess you up mentally knowing you hit him with your hardest shot-especially being a big puncher like Curtis-it having not nearly the affect you thought it would, then preceding to get knocked out. No one at 160 would want him. I'm jumping ahead too much.
