Comments Thread For: Roach: Golovkin Taking Punches on Purpose is Bull****

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Hall of Fame coach Freddie Roach is not convinced that Gennady "GGG" Golovkin intentionally allowed Willie Monroe Jr. to get off with punches when they collided a few weeks ago.

Golovkin was able to stop Monore in six rounds, but not before he ate several hard combinations during the match. After the fight was over, Golovkin and his trainer Abel Sanchez stated that he intentionally let his guard down to extend the fight for a few more rounds, and to make it more exciting for the fans who paid tickets at The Forum in Los Angeles.

Yes Freddie, we know that every single one of your fighters is going to knock out every guy who steps in the ring with them. Manny was going to knock out Floyd and now Cotto is going to knock out GGG. With that being said, if Cotto and GGG ever did fight that would be an epic 24/7. Roach and Abel talking a bunch of smack back and forth, Cotto referring to himself in 3rd person and GGG and his bad english. That would be pretty legendary.

Ok, here's the Roach's comeback. Talking bull**** again. It wasn't enough with Floyd, now is GGG.

Good one.

Was this not already posted weeks ago?

Well he's right, no one deliberately tries to get hit. From what I've seen Golovkin's defence is poor.

But he's fought such powder puff punchers in his last two fights so its hard to tell if he'd be more hesitant against someone that could actually crack.

I'm not sure many claimed that he took punches on purpose. More so, that he was willing to stay in the pocket plenty, as he wasn't too concerned about Monroe's power after he had tasted it.

I am on the fence on this one. But the thing is, Golovkin was pretty good in the first two round against Monroe then he suddenly drops defence. It's flipping confusing and that's why I want to see him against someone elite like Froch.

I just pictured a buddy cop show with Cotto and GGG as the partnered cops, and Roach and and Sanchez as their superiors. Man, that'd be great!

Lol, Freddy saying Golovkin looked tired in the late rounds vs Monroe. Fight didn't last 6. And for god sake, he punched himself out trying to finish Monroe, who doesn't get tired doing that? No comment on how he quickly he recovered.

Just bring on Lara, Froch and Ward. I wanna hear people get creative about how Golovkin's a limited slugger after he beats those three.
