You obviously didn't watch the Stevens fight. Even the interviewer afterwards was pressing Golovkin very hard about why he was hit so brutally and so often that night and Golovkin just blushed and sort of ran his hands along his face and had no answer and said he was never hurt. Meanwhile Sillakh didn't land anything please stop lying.

There was one round where Stevens landed consistently on Golovkin, the rest of the fight he was landing an odd punch every so often and taking a hell of a lot more.

If they fought (don't think they ever will) Kovalev would win cos he's much bigger, not cos he's a better fighter. GGG imo is definitely a better P4P fighter, he's more naturally skilled.

I like both guys and think they're the best at their weight classes though.

One thing I'll give Golovkin is I believe the HBO crew stated Golovkin has the highest connect percentage in the sport or something, or is it 2nd highest after Floyd Mayweather?

when kovalev loses, he will lose by ko
golovkin i doubt will ever get sparked, he'll more likely lose by decision

[Jloro]

golovkin barely gets hit, esspecially not clean, kovalev got hit plenty by powershots from sillakh in the first round alone

lol yous are crazy GG gets hit constantly, his last fight he couldn't go a round without getting stopped in his tracks by a midget

You just said the opposite of what I said although I agree on the other stuff you said. However keep in mind their last fights show a different story. Kovalev was not hit at all and annihilated his opponent. Golovkin was rocked and bombed on heavily, monster bombs from Stevens landing cleanly on his face all night before he could put STevens away.

Yeah Idk what these guys were watching

Exactly that's the point. You can't show me a single fight where Kovalev was "hit alot" because all his opponents get annihilated within 3 rounds.

Kovalev has even killed an opponent in the ring before. I know nothing to be proud of, but that's how scary his power is.
