Do you guys believe GGG really lets his opponents tee off on his face?

    Hell no.

    Yes he'll take one to land 2 but many of the shots he took yesterday were from not being comfortable fighting on the inside.

    Punches hurt though. I don't care it's Paulie punching Margarito.

        Obviously not Hilarious notion.

        It's as dumb as when Floyd said he let Cotto and Maidana hit him to give the fans excitement and the fan boys ran with it.

        He just doesn't have a good defense.

        And he was visibly frustrated against Munroe.

          Monroe had 6 KO'S why the hell wouldnt. I was scared for his life when they rumored he would fight Kirkland.

            How many people here believe this? He looked gassed to me after the 4th round, like he may have punched himself out a bit, trying to take Monroe out after putting him down twice.

            What do you guys think?
            No, he has holes in his defense. Even if that was true that would make him a ****** fighter.


            He did what he had to do and established himself again as the best middleweight in the world. But this nonsense about him "allowing" opponents to hit him flush is ridiculous. He might let them open up but blocking punches with his face is not part of the plan unless he's ******.

              I think GGG may consciously neglect his defence, therefore letting his opponents to hit him. However, straight letting them tag him; no.

                after round 2, he stopped using his jab which, along with his footwork, is his best weapon.

                once he realized monroe can't hurt him, he went for a kill and wanted to put on a show, which he did.

                same thing with murray, the only diffrence is, the brit has a better chin than monroe.

                don't get fooled by these fights, we haven't seen golovkin's best version yet.

                  Don't know what to believe lol. Better not let do that once he moves up because Chavez got owned thinking he can handle bigger guys.

                    Not yesterday but against Murray it's like he didn't care, Golovkin better drop that habit now.

                      He's so focused on offence, he's gonna get hit

                      He's a beast in the ring

                      Monroe was probably thinking:

                      Everytime I get near a corner he traps me

                      I can't clinch him

                      He isn't getting tired

                      He punches hard

                      He places his shots very well

                      Punch selection and variety is great

                      I can't hurt him

                      He keeps coming

                      He has another gear he can go to







                      That's probably why Monroe didn't beat the count when he could have and said "I'm done."
