It was a poor example of what both are capable of tho. Ggg is either getting old and his skills are eroding or he simply didn't care about his opponent and gonzalez seemed fixated on getting the ko. Both are much more nuanced and better than what they showed tonight. I blame hbo and their ko streak hype...it's got these guys feeling like they gotta live up to it.
    so why blame me for not being impressed and why bring up my son?

        Not being impressed and basically trashing fighters, labeling them "no skill" are 2 different things. If your son is gonna make a go at boxing, it will give you some insight as to what it actually takes. You won't take kindly to people on the sidelines being critical of that hard work.

          Golovkin should have moved and jabbed more and taken half a round to set up one right hand. Continue that over 12 rounds with some clinches and that would have been true boxing skill.

                      It doesn't take many punches when you have enough power. It's not that complicated. Wade had no business being in the ring with Golovkin. We can thank whoever decides these asinine mandatory defenses for the mismatch.
