    Berto doesn't think GGG is unproven

    Everyone knows he hits hard, he hasn't proven he's the complete elite level fighter you so desperately want him to be.

      The games not made for ko artists anymore. You just get accused.

      The way forward is to punch like malignaggi that's the yardstick now!

        He probably does have really dense bones, he's been punching people nearly his whole life , and I'm sure his technique is solid, it should be like second nature to him by now..


        If you asked anyone who doesn't follow boxing, who do you think they'd pick?

        yea, the more jacked dude














        same with Kovalev..


        These guys have good fighter builds, not too bulky but efficient.
        Bone density probably does play a big part too.
        Who knows? Maybe they were exposed to radiation and are mutants?

          Best part of this video is Berto's standing next to Elvis Grant Phillips, the man who makes Golovkin's gloves. I took this as being a complement to Golovkin. Berto more less comes out and says he's not picking Danny to win.

          Here's Stephen Edward's assessment where Golovkin's punching power comes from.








          Those kettle bell work-outs Golovkin does are hell.

            There is no such thing as roid gut. That is something ****** ignorant people call roid-gut or hgh-gut but its should just be called bubble gut. Bubble gut as seen in bodybuilders is a product of taking loads of diuretics and carb-loading before a show. It has nothing to do with taking steroids.

            What bodybuilders have is distention of the lower abdomen caused by eating a massive amount of carbohydrates while diuretics have shut down the digestive tract.



            GGG looks nothing like this

              It does look like GGG has thick bones.

                There's no mystery here. He's physically predisposed to hit hard. He's worked on those attributes in terms of building maximum power and an efficient technique to deliver it. He is athletically gifted in that regard to begin with and he works his butt off to maximize his potential. There are probably plenty of guys who can wind up and fire a shot that lands as hard maybe harder than GGG...not many who can deliver that power consistently with timing and accuracy with either hand from a multitude of angles. Add that to the fact that he's developed a lot of other boxing skills as his amateur record attests to and you've got yourself a real problem in the ring.

                  Always said Big George was thick boned...yet NSB girls said no nor could it exist...

                  I guess Berto reads around this site. Nice!

                  Taxi drivers pray to thick bones too

                    You guys are all wrong. GGG's secret is that he's not human.

                      We hope he is because we enjoy being entertained. You hope he isn't because you're a hater.
