Whats so great about GGG?

[Divine Hammer]

his immense power, his strong and relentless pressure, his durable chin, his smile, charismatic personality, his humble attitude and warrior mentality.

[New England]

well, aside from teh fact that his chin and power are some of hte best in boxing:

he's a genuine offensive technician. he creates openings and lands, often in combination.
he has the most prolific jab in boxing, IE the one that lands the most. this is a stat kept by compubox.
he's a great body puncher.
his style is extremely exciting. his fights haven't been thrilling because his opponents are getting blown out in the first half of the fight.


he's also quite marketable, evidently. he didn't do well in new york, but he did very well with a mexican fanbase on the west coast. i don't think he's got bonafide crossover appeal, but i wouldn't be surprised ot see him doing an interview on espn if his english gets better.


so yeah, there's definitely that.

this must be a joke post or GGG's girlfriend.

GGG's jab ain't shi.t let alone "the most prolific jab in boxing"

Get a grip on something besides 3G's tiny balls.

He hasn't fought many punchers and gets hit plenty by guys that shouldn't be able to touch a guy of his so-called skills.

GGG has legs like a flamingo and a reach shorter than most featherweights.
Walters has a longer reach than Golivkin and bigger legs.

The ONLY thing GGG has going for his is getting credit for doing nothing..in a dead division.

Stevenson is the only guy on his meager resume that can punch and he was Jesse Brinkley's leftovers.

Fighters like GGG that drop their punches and lean straight back will ALWAYS let you down.

Golovkin's resume would be impressive if he were 23 instead of 33...it's hard not to look like a beast fighting on such a low level of comp.

[VERDUGO]

nothing

very overrated.

[Chris Bauermeis]

his immense power, his strong and relentless pressure, his durable chin, his smile, charismatic personality, his humble attitude and warrior mentality.

Has scrawny flamingo legs,leaves himself wide open,can't fight backing up,and has stumpy popeye arms.

Walters has a longer reach than GGG and he's a featherweigt.

GGG and Broner have the same reach


It's gonna' be funny watching that hype-train hit the ditch.

[WombBat]

lol, a guy like adrien broner wouldnt last very long. He stands right in front of you, and GGG has got off-the-charts level power with some trickiness as well

Broner moved out of the dead LW division at 22.

GGG is still in his dead division at 33.

Broner has fought better SKILLED fighters and moved up to do so.
3G doesn't have balls like that.

Adrian's resume > Golovkin's.

Broner's opponents make more than GGG...lol

[Biolink]

The hype is so big about him on here i think ive even seen someone call him the GOAT lol.

Im not saying hes bad at all, i like him as a fighter and hes well spoken too .

Ive seen a couple of his notable fights and all i really see is that he is really good at cutting the ring of and landing big shots, but even in those fights he faces trouble when someone starts side to side movement and jabbing him.

Hes definiately top 10 right now but i dont really see the trouble with someone like adiren broner/floyd outboxing him and taking his power away. I think he hasnt really faced someone who is a very skilled boxer like broner for example.

i mean in all honesty he hasnt really faced a skilled boxer like floyd or broner even khan

Golovkin does so many little thing's well. He's basically a counter puncher that likes to come forward. Timing, Punch variety, Boxing IQ, and defense are on point. It really is the intangible thing's that people don't see or they choose not to talk about that him a great fighter. But he IS a complete fighter. Floyd could MAYBE outbox him just because he's Floyd and I gotta give him the benefit of the doubt regardless of the weight and size problems this fight would present, but Broner? Come on man. That's an insult. This guy actually outboxed Andre Dirrell in the amateurs. For as much talk as he gets about flat footed, and slow just think about that.

This video explains it better than I could.

GGG is still in his dead division at 33.

Broner has fought more SKILLED and moved up to do so.
3G doesn't have balls like that.

Broners a good fighter, but he lost to Maidana (no shame in that), arguably Ponce De Leon, and some say Paulie (I thought he won).

Broner outgrew his weight class. He is young, his body is still developing and the fact that he wasnt eating well and not training as seriously as GGG does in between fights.

GGG is a monster, the guy will take your shot just to deliver his, and his is a lot more devastating.

GGG demolishes these guys, Broner wins contraversial decisions and honestly I think GGG's fighters are better than what Broner has beat.

It really is the intagible thing's that people don't see or they choose not to talk about. But he IS a complete fighter. Floyd could MAYBE outbox him just because he's Floyd, but Broner? Come on man. That's an insult.

You have to consider the level of comp...the video doesn't make such an important consideration.

GGG pulls back with his hands down....that's a very bad babit.
He also drops his punches and doesn't move his head after he throws.

That's bad news for a young fighter...let alone an old one like Golovkin.

Kelly Pavlik can stagger his way drunk thru GGG's paltry resume.
