Comments Thread For: Golovkin vs. Eubank Deal Hangs in The Balance Over Sky Money

[Redd Foxx]

Golovkin's fought the way he has because of who his opponents have been. He's outlanded them by huge margins and barely lost a handful of rounds in the process. Yet, to you, that's somehow a flaw. Does it mean he can do the same to Ward?...no. Does it mean he'll fight the same fight against Ward?...no. But do you honestly think Froch or Kessler are technically better offensive fighters than GGG? Golovkin IS a great counterpuncher -- you're simply wrong. It's pointed out in most of his fights and there are videos online illustrating it. Maybe part of the reason people think Ward beats GGG is that not only is Ward a great fighter, he'll outweigh Golovkin in the ring by 10lbs.

No, you failed to understand what I was saying and why. I originally replied to a foolish comment about Golovkin having an easy time landing on Ward. I was NOT picking out flaws in the man or bashing him. Just stating facts to help explain why it's unrealistic and why those knowledgeable about the sport give Golovkin little chance. I don't give a damn about some superman vs mighty mouse arguments. I'm not playing fan wars so it doesn't matter to me whether Ward is bigger and it's a fair fight. I think Ward might lose to a prime Calzaghe if that helps prove my point about not playing fan angles.

I've never seen a place that railed so hard against common sense as this forum.

My comment made perfect sense. I never said GGG would have an easy time hitting Ward, but he will hit him quite a bit. More than anyone else Ward's faced because he's a better boxer than anyone Ward's faced. How is that foolish? Who exactly gave GGG little chance? I've been following this closely since the beginning and I don't recall anyone "knowledgeable" implying it'd be a walk in the park for Ward.
