Comments Thread For: Gennady Golovkin Blasts Out Rubio in Two Rounds

[hitking]

Y'all funny. GGG beats a guy that most of y'all were criticizing Cotto for even considering, and all of sudden Ward is scared of GGG. GGG looked like hammered dawg **** last night. He's impossible to miss. Ward would embarrass this boy.

nonsense. from what i recall the consensus was that rubio would have a fairly good chance at upsetting cotto, being the much bigger man and a decent puncher to boot

i think ward would probably beat golovkin too (if he wasn't too rusty after the long lay-off, that is) but no need to tell lies

What concensus? All I remember is the GGG fanb1tches on here b1tch'n about Cotto Cotto ducking GGG and fighting a bum like Rubio.

Cotto was being criticized for fighting Rubio over guys like GGG and Canelo not simple for fighting Rubio. No need to get all defensive and insecure about GGG , Ward would beat him .

I still didn't notice: Was Ward anywhere near the ring last night? Was Ward watching tv? Has he posted anything on twitter so far?

last night showed me golovkin is not elite, no matter what ya'll say. give him a strate unrelenting pressure fighter that throws non stop, or a pure boxer with lateral movement and good accuracy and this boy is done

"Who can defeat Golovkin? Let us be honest with ourselves ***8211; no one in the middleweight division ***8211; not Miguel Cotto or Felix Sturm, Martin Murray or Matt Korobov, and he would also KO Alvarez, who hopefully will be steered away from Golovkin, and 2-3 clean punches will be enough to put the marathon runner Erislandy Lara away. The same would be true for Floyd Mayweather Jr, but really, it is an unfair fight, for Mayweather can make 140 pounds if necessary,and GGG hits like a heavyweight in the 160 pound division.

You'd have to give David Lemieux at least a puncher's chance. For me, he is the one threat left at 160lbs.

As a HUGE, GIGANTIC & OBSESSIVE Andre Ward fan it's a tough pill for me to swallow but i don't see him enduring the punching power of Golovkin. I would love to think different but in my professional opinion i see GGG by stoppage in 6-8. Just my opinion.

Don't discount the impact of the weight jump, Ward is also very good on the inside and can make things messy. I favor Ward in a close fight, I think Bika and Kessler give Golovkin a tough fight too.

seriously? i don't see one aspect in which kessler outperforms golovkin, especially not this past-prime kessler

i see golovkin brutalising kessler and froch (and of course cotto and canelo) but being frustrated by ward

the only guy who stands a chance of beating ward any time soon is a slightly more experienced beterbiev

cotto ud 12 rounds

Good one. But First Cotto (who I respect but still I'm realistic) has to man up or vacate his belt taken from one legged shot fighter.

Well this fight went exactly how I thought it would go, even with the fast count.

Rubio fought like the Pillsbury Doughboy last night. Kinda looked like him in a way too.

Golovkin is "watchable" but so are car wrecks. The difference is, you don't run home and write about it on the internet after you see a car wreck.
