        The only top level tournament he was in was the 2004 Olympics, and he needed a robbery to advance.

        He sure holds a lot i'm surprise he was never deducted any points for excessive holding and head spearing

          Ward was running and clinching in this fight as well lol his boxing IQ really is overrated big time.

          If GGG was American mark my word he'd have a gold medal too but they don't protect minor countries.
          GGG doesn't need you to be an apologist. Robberies happen all the time in the Olympics, have you forgotten that Roy Jones and Mayweather Jr were also robbed in the games.....

            But he's good enough to rule and cause fear of the Middleweight division that has all the Brothers hiding and ducking or getting knock the phuck out

              😂😂😂😂😂 Golovkin isn't fighting Brothas with talent he's fighting Wade a Shobox fighter and Monroe who has no good wins. If the coward ever moves up he'll get exposed but let's be honest he's not man enough to do it.

                True.

                Golovkin faced one of the best amateur middleweights of all time in the finals that year.

                Be careful. People will report you for racism if you don't stop bashing black boxers like Munroe and Wade.

                The officials were behind him as usual.

                I wonder how he managed that in the Olympics?

                    I just rewatched the fight. It wasn't a robbery. It was two rounds to two. Each very close with Ward eeking it out. (Ward winning 1 & 4)

                    You think Ward lost? OK. But it wasn't a robbery.

                      The Middleweight Division is a much deeper division in the amateurs, just look at all the successful pro middleweights that come from 2004 class alone.

                      Golovkin
                      Korobov
                      Dirrell
                      Lee
                      Geale
                      Ward
                      N'Dam
                      Despaigne

                      Most of these guys either won or challenged for a world title.
