His management are finally getting him to face more diverse styles / techniques. Monroe is very slick, he has good ring generalship, a very good boxer - he just beat Bryan Vera (fight should be on youtube) I feel that he will do a lot better than Murray, because Murray laid on the ropes, and never adjusted to GGG's uppercut which was a result from Murray's style flaw - that uppercut killed him all night - Monroe Jr. will not be there - he constantly moves and constantly throws punches, if you make a mistake he will hit you, not a lot of power, but he will keep you honest - not the worst fight, and definitely not the best, but if GGG wants to compete with the Lara's / Ward's etc.. he has to face some slick fighters that will make him go rounds, and make him adjust..
Exactly. It's a good style change for GGG to go up against to prepare for other slick fighters and southpaws.
Monroe is a career middleweight and apparently rated in the top 10 in the division. He is also a southpaw.
Salka was unranked at junior welter and ranked 75 at lightweight! On top of that, his fight with Garcia was technically at welter since it was above the 140 limit!
Yeah, these two situations are completely similar.
I didn't say they were similar in every aspect, just that neither guy has a chance to win. If you feel salka is worse-fine.
Is this what this guy means when he says he wants to stay and clean out the 160 division ? This never ending list of tomato cans he's fighting has me very acidic of late . He needs to just go ahead and make the move to 168 like yesterday !
I guess he literally meant clean out all of 160. He wants to beat everybody in the top 30.
