The Gennady Golovkin Myth

[HeroBando]

I think HBO would be the more reluctant than Haymon to make the Lara fight

Of course, they got a ban on Haymon, and theres dozens of Haymon fighters theyd rather show than #1 on anti Gatti list Lara

You never know they could bust Jermaine Taylor out of the insane asylum, he is a middleweight legend after all~

[DoktorSleepless]

Hes a SWW that just stunk out the joint in his first big chance, that hes been screaming for for years.

His first big chance was Williams, and he fucked him up. Put a pressure fighter in front him, and the fights are good.

That wasnt really a big fight, only for hardcore fans and Williams was coming off that disgusting KO loss. Both him and Angulo are volume punchers, doubt Lara would be that entertaining vs precise stalker. He stunk it out vs Canelo

Golovkin averages 71 punches per round, Angulo averages 75 punches per round while Canelo averages 43 punches per round. Is 71 the magical cutoff for volume? C'mon now. Flat flooted lazy Canelo does not bring out the best out of anyone. An opponent like Golovkin is exactly when the exciting side of Lara comes out.

Alright, face first brawler or face first volume puncher may make Lara exciting, but not even a sure thing, see awful Freddy Hernandez bout. I really wouldnt expect excitement from him vs GGG, he'll be running like the wind as long as he's upright

I'd like to think that as well, but it seems like since that Angulo fight he's changed tactics. Even against ishe he didn't want to fight.

You must think very poorly of GGG if you think he can't at least match the excitement Angulo brought in the Lara fight. Do his magical ring cutting off skills not exist anymore?

Not really, Angulo was glacial slow was very hittable and Lara could counter at will. Hes gonna be a lot more economical with his hands, not feet, vs GGG. But no doubt hes getting stopped, probably earlier than Angulo

I wanted to take this thread serious Dirk but then you mentioned Bernard Hopkins and Andre Ward
