Some Random Facts about GGG

[jov6388]

Legend has it when he faced Amar Amari... golovkin put on 14 oz gloves just to test himself ...that's how Amar survived 8 rounds

[Tom Cruise]

He has to know who borat is by now right??....right?

I dont think they like Borat so much in Kazakhstan. Something about taking the piss out of their entire culture didn't sit well with them!

Interesting. The Asian genetic seems much stronger in other mixed race people with that ancestry. I'm surprised he's allegedly half Korean.

He beat direll, geale, lee and a few other notables in the armatures.

his mothers first name and patronymic are both russian names so she might only be half korean.

Borat should enter the ring with him if he fights Sergio Martinez.

why would golovkin want to enter the ring with a british *** that insulted his entire nation.

I don't think there's anything alleged about his parentage. Korean mum, Russian dad. If you're comparing his appearance to Tsyu, Kostyas dad was of Korean / Mongol heritage.

Anyways, I get what you're saying, facially he does look more 'Russian' in appearance, though that really tells you nothing about his overall genetic makeup. FWIW if you see any pictures where he's unshaven (or even with a coupla days growth as in the Ouma fight) you can kinda see more of the East-Asian heritage.

Fact: 50 Cent and his crew only do the "g g G UNIT!" to pay homage to Golovkin

his mom's name is elizaveta sergeevna so her father might have been russian which would make golovkin 1/4 korean.

[Citizen Koba]

his mothers maiden name and patronymic are both russian names so she might only be half korean.

why would golovkin want to enter the ring with a british *** that insulted his entire nation.

Did not know that. I guess it's possible she russified her patronymic, though that wouldn't apply to her maiden name.

OK a little research drags up the fact that there was a substantial Korean migration to Russia at the start of the 20th century. Quite likely then his mum could be of Korean ancestry but her family have taken on Russian naming tradition as third or forth generation immigrants. It appears that Korean communities, even when forcibly resettled (to the central asian republics) retained a large degree of ****geneity and cultural identity as 'Soviet Koreans' with their own ethnic collective farms, villages, etc.
