Comments Thread For: Golovkin Coach: We'll Pot Shot Lemieux, KO Him in 4!

[Swatty]

if ggg pot shots in this fight it will kill his rep if the one time a guy fights back he goes into boxer amateur mayweather type mode it will kill his whole aura at least in my opinion. in my opinion it shouldnt but u got think it will everyone wants to see 2 bull dogs fighting not one and the one whose supposed be most feared taking backward steps

GGG potshots every fight. He lets other fighters hit him a little more each flurry so they come in closer. Then he potshots their ribs until they're down. He has good defense, he's really hard to hit with a real shot.
Lemieux has real power, so we will see what happens come fight night. Two heavy punchers throwing with authority, anything can happen.
It's why we watch.

You don't like GGG's fans "spouting a bunch of BS" and in the same paragraph state Ward wants to move up to heavyweight. Do you really expect anyone to take you seriously?

This is what he's said, but the most "avoided man" "ill fight anyone 154-168" that is the BS. Ward has stated what he's trying to accomplish, Gigi only fights janitors and that doesnt deserve my money. I'd rather watch FREE PBC fights than pay for some BS.

LOL BUT VERY TRUE

I actually dont have a problem with the ducking.. i just think his team talks to much.

[alexKO]

Please... and im a big big big cotto fan... he hasnt knocked out nobody with a pulse since god knows when.... his tenure north of 154 has been suspect...

what you think about wit the fight with Canelo?

It's hard to call - although Cotto has just fought washed up or weight-drained middleweights, he's still looked a lot better than he did against Clottey and Trout for example. The Margarito and Pacquiao stoppages were both in part due to gassing and I think Canelo has similar stamina problem so I'd be surprised if Cotto got stopped.

Probably still favour Canelo on points though - youth and size advantages.

Cotto can box and i think Canelo doesnt fight 3 minutes of every round.. i just dont know if Cotto and his face can take too much punishment.. he can outbox canelo and maybe squeak out a decision if he can make it to the final bell.. i always do talk some solace.. yea im a cotto fan.. lol.. that cottos little brother rocked and hurt canelo a few years ago.. so you never know.

Ward can state whatever he wants but the fact of the matter is, he just fought Paul Smith.

I want to move up from 160 to heavweight, knocking out GGG, Ward, Kovalev, Beterbiev, Usyk, Joshua, Povetkin in a final eliminator and then Klitschko.

Do you believe me?

Yeah, although Cotto doesn't have an amazing workrate, it's probably still better than Canelo. I think it's a close one but I wouldn't read too much into Canelo 5 or however many years ago. He was rocked by Cotto's little brother but he was also in his teens fighting at 147.
