Roach: golovkin exposed, didn't get hit on purpose

[The Champions]

I've never seen him hurt, his defense isn't really all that, his chin looks almost Margarito level, 400 or so amateur bouts and 33 pro bouts without a single knockdown, think it's fair to say it's made of iron.

I've seen him hurt to the body though.

Look what happened to Margarito.

When GGG gets hurt, he stops punching and puts on the ear muffs.

A guy with leaky defense gets hit

Now all of a sudden he allowed it to happen on purpose

ggg is a good public relations guy. He knows how to spin bs that will overwhelm ****** people with excitement and have them believing what he says

What fight have you seen him hurt to the body? And I dont think his defense could be much better with his style and physical attributes(hasn't got that Roy Jones speed), besides the moments where he gets purposely lazy against weak punchers, everyone will get hit in this sport, punches will get through, and i've yet to see him take the beating defensive genius Mayweather has taken against Augustus, or even for shorter spells like Floyd had against Corley.

Interesting, but even there he seemed to recoup pretty fast.

To me his chin looks A level.

It's very good. What about that fight with the bodyshot?

[Skilled Nation]

"we're not ready for Ward"

sounds like a shut down.

They already know what time it is.

Apparently you don't know what the definition of a "beating" is. If that's the case Golovkin took a "beating" against Rosado and Stevens.

hhmmm maybe there's a reason why he's fighting light punchers.

"Hurt" may be an exaggeration, but I've seldom seen him wobbled by any punch from what I've seen thus far, and if anything has evoked a sign that he was in any kind of distress it was when he was hit to the body, can't remember specific fights I think Murray maybe, Monroe worked his body and it seemed to stop his offence for a bit. He just seems extremely durable all round to me.

What opened my eyes was seeing ggg's lack of resilience for bodyshots in his most recent fight

Imagine someone with decent power consistently working his body

Next thing you know he'll be fatigued. The power sapped, the hands lower, and his chin cracked
