Golovkin vs Adama - Master Thread

[-Kev-]

Despite Golovkin's defense looking like garbage in his last 2 fights, I still don't think Geale has a chance because he has no power to keep GGG off of him. Geale's defense isn't exactly good either, he gets drawn into exchanges very often.

Ward, Froch, Groves, Kessler would all toy with GGG.

Considering Adama's been in with some elite guys, including Geale and others, yeah he deserves some credit for that.

that guy is a bum......and as hype ggg is he shouldn't have looked that terrible, no excuses. his team better keep him away from any fighter that has a pulse because an 75-80% martinez ud's him and a 100% literally ****s him....and don't get me started on 168.

The hate Golovkin's getting is ridiculous. He just beat the living daylights out of a guy and people are having a go at him because he got caught with a few shots.

He's an aggressive but calculated come-forward fighter. When you bear that in mind, his defence is pretty solid.

His defense is rubbish. Adama couldn't miss and he couldn't throw a straight shot to save his life.

You can see Martinez and Ward fans get very hostile due to their insecurities. They know Ward nor Martinez would come close to beating Golovkin, they would go into survival mode waiting to A) get knocked out or B) for the last bell to ring.

This is the truth right here and all that needs to be said. Good post.

the truth is golovkin has to step it up. thats the way u silence the doubters. there was nothing in this fight to be proud about and thats gonna start happening a lot from now on if he doesnt get in there with someone with a pulse. so yes there is overreaction from ppl on both sides. but this is the simple truth.

Doesn't matter if he KO's his next opponent in the first round.(to the guy who said all will be forgotten if he does so his next fight)

Based on many of his fights i've seen and not just today, his style is ripe for a schooling, simple as.

His power will always give him a chance obviously, just as it always does with power punchers but if someone can stay away from that(easier said than done but can most certainly be done) he get's schooled to a decision loss, think Sergio and Ward would both be capable of doing that.

i think its a matter of him choosing whats the best style to beat his opponent
u think GGG would win the way he did tonight if he box along with adama?

Pigsfly watching the GGG fight today


*pays close attention until GGG gets hit with a good punch*

(adama finally lands a right hand in the 3rd round)

pigsfly: You see guys, golovkin is easily hittable. Just look at that flush, sweet, and nice right hand that hit him right on the kisser. Black fighters will give him problems because they are so slick, doe. GGG getting hit with a jab shows that he's a face first brawler with no defense, and can't fight going backwards. Quillin, 23.45% Martinez, Cotto, Maylegend, and Jacobs at 54.20% all school GGG and send him back to ESPN.

Your video was just a little over the top but it was great for laughs. Good boy video.

Adama missed plenty of shots. He landed properly like twice in 7 rounds...

LOL. Before this, (and same thing with Macklin) peopel were calling for Geale to prove his "eliteness" and now that that fight is a strong possibility and very realistic in 2 months or so, the same way Macklin was being called a bum.... now Geale is too.

This is hilarious.

Adama gave the almighty Geale a rough fight. It's hilarious how GGG is supposed to go untouched against fighters that give everyone else in the division tough fights. GGG KO's them in the mid rounds yet you still *****.

BTW, I thought you were quitting the forum?
