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

[jjsmyth87]

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.

Manny would have knocked Floyd put had he not torn bis rotator cuff in the fourth round. Right when he had him hurt on the ropes and was about to knock him out. With that being said, cotto may as well just vacate his title because he is a tiny middleweight. Hes a natural 147 lber. He will easily get knocked out by both canelo and ggg. Willie Monroe is a damn monster from the black lagoon compared to cotto and he still got koed.

Freddie Roach's knockout prediction percentage rivals that of Shaq shooting free throws. Actually that's not a fair...Shaq was a little better at 52%.

I will not lie. Amir Khan and Roach are the two boxing characters I do not like but I read all their comments to see what crazy thing they say each time. As far as KO predictions. He does it and eventually he'll get one right and be like, "Hah! I told you guys."

So true....

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.

Yeah this g boy wasn't getting hit to please anyone and for his team to say that was the case insults boxing fans intellect. He got hit because he has a very leaky defence. Once he stops fighting guys without power he'll get exposed and KTFO. After that happens all the excuses will start and he'll be back to fighting cream puffs calling out smaller fighters claiming they are scared of his punk zza. He'll never fight Andre Ward and if by chance a fight with Froch can be made he'll get stretched out ari und the 8th or 9th round....

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.

GGG literally said he got hit on purpose in his post fight interview to make his"BIG DRAMA SHOW"

Was this not already posted weeks ago?

He seemed slightly more hesitant early vs Stevens. Then he didn't seem to care late. Had his hands down and throwing a lot of shots.

Except that he literally didn't. He said he stood infront of Monroe to give him a chance to make the fight exciting.

Literally what Floyd says he has done in the past.

[SlySlickSmooth]

He was fighting with his hands all the way down at one point. I'm pretty sure he didn't give a **** at some point in the fight.

Sorry. Ali did it decades ago. Again and again, and again. And again and again. In the long term Ali paid a high price for having done so, but do it he did. Again and again and again.
