    Would Golovkin be able to hurt and/or stop LaMotta?

    He sets up his punches well with accuracy, and if he really does hit like a HW, then there's no reason to think he couldn't. I'm not saying he would beat him or comparing them. I understand GGG needs to fight better competition. I'm just wondering what you guys think.

    LaMotta always was a tiny guy. Golovkin would crush him bad and turn LaMotta's face into hamburger.

        I'm not one to jump to conclusions. I'm a fan of Golovkin, but I'm not ready to recognize him as an unbeatable force. However, most people seem to feel that way, so I wanted to ask. Plus that fighter comparing him to hitting like a HW. I thought this could be a good inquiry.

            I think you're missing the point. I don't recall asking who would win, nor did I make a comparison. Perhaps I should check my original post that I just typed up. I simply asked if he would be able to hurt him. Nothing more. Nothing less.

                I asked WOULD HE BE ABLE TO stop him. I specifically refrained from giving a prediction or comparing them. For God's sake.

                  I dont buy the sparring stories about him dropping HWs and shìt. I think it's bull****. Smoke and mirrors. Like the whole "everyone is ducking GGG" ****.

                    LaMotta was short 5'9", nothing about him was "tiny"! He could hit the weight (160) the morning of the fight and come in at 175 easily! He was not tall and his reach wasn't much but tiny is NOT a word I'd associate with Jake!
                    Then there's his heart, he's still alive and kicking tonight, young or old one of the toughest SOB ever!
                    "tiny" hahaha what a joke...
