The "Slick" boxing style doesn't work on Eastern Euros like KOvalev Loma and....

[b00g13man]

This is ****ing ******.

Prime Hopkins and RJJ vs Kov is a better test for slick vs EE. not a 50 yr old

With all due respect to Kovalev but Hopkins was 49 years old, Shillakh was never relevant. As for GGG: Willie Monroe as good prospect he is, was never an elite guy also and Gary Russell fought just TBA-s before Lomachenko, however at this moment probably still he's the best out of the claimed "slicksters" you mentioned. And all of them has different styles.
Do you think Loma has the same or similar style of Kovalev or GGG? Do you watch fights or not? Because if you say that with a serious face I honestly doubt that you've ever watched a Loma fight (or Kovalev/GGG fight).
The fact is there are levels in all styles. You compared the elite level of Eastern-Euro fighters who haven't got the same style btw (Loma) and compared to them second tier slicksters and a legend who is still 49 years old.
I don't want to take anything from Kova, GGG or Loma but you need to stop generalizing or if you do so at least compare the elite level with the elite level.

I would like to see Golovkin vs Lara before the Canelo fight

Everybody slick until they get hit.

No, I'm from middle Europe,

I Thought Cupo303 used to back Bernard Hopkins? a few years ago didn't he have a Hopkins Avi?

[Weltschmerz]

Golovkin and Kovalev are technically sound and powerful. They still need that big W though, both of them.

Completely Disagree

Kovalev and golovkin so focused on offence and don't move their heads

Way to beat them is throw quick combos then move out of there

With kovalev he doesn't fight inside, so smothering and clinching should be part of strategy

Sillakh did win that first round clearly albeit it's only a round and kova usually measures his guy first round

Golovkin is well versed in wrestling and is physicLy strong . Monroe tried to clinch when he was hurt but ggg wouldn't allow it.
