Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach: Ward Goes Cold on Targeting GGG

[SugarRaRobinson]

For those here on this blog who have no personal experience in the ring , I will say this ; The key element that really makes it clear that GGG and Kovalev are dirty is not merely the long KO streaks they r on , but rather the fact that half , if not over half of their KO's are by body shots ! If u know anything about boxing u understand how rarified and completely suspect that actually is . As superb as a body puncher as Hopkins was throughout his career , it was still a rarity to stop De La Hoya the way he did . Kovalev barely tapped Caparello to the body and forced him to take a knee . When u really know boxing , this is the smoking gun !!!

there is a basic standard of testing applied by the state commissions. also, i don't think that peds actually work like that - you know, like, "take this pill and your power will increase 50%!" or whatever. the most common performance enhancing drugs in boxing are hgh, generally used by fighters moving up in weight; diuretics, generally used by fighters cutting weight; and epo, which enhances endurance and lets you train harder.

I don't really know or claim to know how PEDS work , i do know like u mentioned that there r many forms that do different things .But I also know that we r all seeing some VERY unusual feats in the ring these days such as long KO streaks with over half coming by way of body shots .

i'm more inclined to attribute it to the way they are schooled over there. i'll never absolutely rule out foul play in this sport, but for now i see no reason to suspect them above anyone else just based on their nationalities

It has nothing to do with nationalities . It's not a racial thing . I believe it's a cultural thing . An example of that would be certain areas have particular modus operandi , like most Philly area boxers study 52blocks style of fighting regardless of nationality , it's just a cultural aspect of that area . GGG and Kovalev both being Eastern European fighters means nothing except to possible suggest they culturally r privy to the same type of formittable synthetic .

I don't know everyone on ur list but the the ones I do know r not comparable : Stevenson has power yes but his conditioning is shaky at best and his power wains significantly in later rounds . Matthysse had serviceable power , but got his a.. wore out by Danny Garcia who has even more . Wilder is a heavy weight with great power who's never fought anyone formittable until his last outing but still prolly can't match up to the EU (younger brother) Klitchko who chin and skills used to be shaky at best but now he's all of a sudden a cyborg too with unlimited supernatural punching power and stamina . I can't really speak on his chin cause no ones really been able to hit it the last 3 years . But for the record , I'm not just talking about outlandish punching power , I'm also speaking of punching power that doesn't wain in later rounds and stamina that doesn't seem to wain either .

Stevenson is 38 and Garcia doesn't have more power than Matthysse, check their records. Klitschko was drug tested against Povetkin and Pulev.

Kovalev has only been past 7 rounds once against a 50 year old man so I'm not sure how you can say his stamina is great, same for GGG his fights rarely go into the later rounds.

You're talking about those two being on some Eastern European drugs when they both live and train in the USA with US coaches in US gyms.

You just have a bias bro, you need to let it go.

Oh yeah man there is definitely a Soviet Union conspiracy, I'm sure you watched Rocky 4 and yes the movie is accurate the Soviets be cheatin, they use a synthetic steroid that increases body punching power specifically, only Soviets have access to this "body KO synthetic steroid" I mean its so blatantly obvious, never mind that Kovalev and GGG both train and live in the US, never mind they are trained on opposite sides of the map (California and Florida), never mind that they are trained by two different American trainers, never mind all that because at the end of the day, Rocky 4 PROVED these Soviet fighters are cheating its so obvious. Body shot KO's? Not in my America, bro. Doesn't happen, ever. Only logical explanation, the ONLY logical explanation is a Soviet Union created "synthetic body punching KO steroid" conspiracy, which was obviously started by ***** himself as part of his world domination aspirations include dominating the American boxing world. How do you win hearts and minds? By body shot KOs, that's how.

Andre Turd only wanted to fight GGG when he knew his Mass-ah Goosen wasn't letting him out of his chains at all. Once he became free, the last thing he wants s to get beat down by ANOTHER white man.

Smh. Get that racism out of here.

Ward would make easy work of GGG anyways.

Insecurity shines from those fans. In case GGG destroys Ward, they will have a new explanation: PEDs

Froch said Ward is deceptively strong physically on the inside. You can see he bosses his opponents around when they're up close. Su****ious...

Strong on the inside and KOing over half ur opponents with body shots is two different animals Sir .

I know right? These fools know absolutely nothing about the Soviet created body shot KO steroid. Idiots.
