IDK why people think laterally moving around the ring is how to beat GGG. The way GGG cuts off the ring and steps forward while throwing his right (switch step) plays perfectly into that game, he likes for guys to move because it keeps them at the end of his punch. You have to stay in front of him and smother his punches. The way Whittaker fought Chavez is how to beat GGG. You need strong legs and short punches.

When was the last time anyone fought GGG on the inside? For all we know he might not have an inside game, hes more of a rangy fighter that likes for you to be at the end of his power...

I agree. And the fighter you described as GGG's kryptonite is a guy named Andre Ward. Which is why the power's that be will never put GGG in a boxing ring with SOG.

I'm not seeing what you're seeing ... Monroe's look bigger. Anyway steroid use shows up primarily in the shoulders and not the forearms. Was there drug testing for this fight? If so by whom? If not, why not?

Go Golovkin!

When Gamboa was accused of using roids they used his stomach as a sign. How come no one says anything about Golovkin's?

You are an ass for even thinking sh it like that. Look at Monroe, jag off. Roids affect Traps, Chest and Lats. Think before you expose your lame ass. You gotta be a fraud fan. You are not that smart G.

I'd be shocked. He's too good at cutting off the ring and will eventually corner him and hurt him.

True that his footwork is a bit unapprieciated

There's hardly ever any talk of drug testing when a medeoric fighter is on the rise who has everyone excited and has a strong promotional backing . Years ago Pacquio got away with it fight after fight while professing he was scared of needles , awhile being an inch shy of being a midget but nevertheless KO'd damn near everyone they placed in front of him (and they were always bigger). Smh

Although the kool-aid , I'm sure tastes phenomenal , I'm so glad I never tried any .

the most respected cherry picker is golovkin..not one proper opponent so far and people on his di**

[bluzi]

Yep, 6KO's. Another fighter who can't punch. Geale, Ishida, Murray, now Monroe. The guys who can punch are C fighters like Rubio and Stevens.

Slick southpaw, ooohh i'm gonna show the world I can beat any style. Yeah, very easy to do when you know your opponent can't hurt you at all.

Well , Floyd cant hurt you but he wins against everyone isnt he ? when he picks a hard hitting guy ppl say he wants to fight slow poddeling come first fighters if he figths movers then its because they cant hurt him , you calling everyone b/c/d level fighters is just dumb , can you suggest a fight he SHOULD take and be challanging and please for the love of god dont say Ward who was inactive for a year and now wants 3 tuneups before taking a live body (coming from him team) , Canelo ? he said he for now no GGG (2 years down the road) , PQ ? he wants GGG to move up , who ? you going to say that everyone are bad arent you? that all boxers around 160 are garbage ? i hope you have better answer.
