    His nutthuggers are the worst and they make him out to bigger than he is on the regular...

    So that can't be it.
    I dislike GGG for fighting Brook. I don't praise Golovkin as some great yet. If he were to retire right now, I wouldn't even consider him HOF.

        That's a new one on me...I haven't read a single cross word of yours against him.

        C'mon now..

          I don't hate him, he's very good. He's boring though. Never once have I watched him fight and been excited. As a boxing fan, you need excitement in fighters otherwise what's the point?

            People think Ward is boring, that is a truth of boxing that has nothing to do with race or nationality.
            I would never ***** over any fan thinking that Ward is boring. You have to respect what fans think and you can't change their opinion. Ward is NOT boring to ME, and what you say is a "truth" of boxing is not the truth. Not everyone thinks that Ward is boring, and there are people that think that Ward IS boring.

              Yes I don't know what the fight after Baldomir has to do with the "Performance" in that fight.

              That's just not true man, No one is ever gonna say James Toney is boring and he is harder to connect on than 99% of fighters. It's about the moving, they don't like it. I do, I love Ali and Leonard circling and dancing in the ring with purpose but Floyd in the 12th circling with his hand up? That's bull*****. The way Hamed would clown people was brilliant . But some people think that is boring and cowardly. They think boxing should be about trying to knock the other guy out and their opinion and boxing philosophy is just as valid as yours.
              You truly are missing the point. There is no book where it lists fighters who are boring and not boring as truth, and if there is one then that still is the author's opinion.

              You gave your opinion on who YOU think is boring and not boring when you mentioned Cotto and Frampton. I have to respect that. You don't seem to respect what I'm saying when I say that Ward isn't boring.

              And fans who like boxers who look for the ko aren't any less boxing fans then fans who want their fighter to get the ko but don't seek the ko and are content to get the decision.

              And with respect, please don't use the word "cowardly" when it comes to guys who take punches for a living.

                  Really. You consider Ward's dismantling of Dawson boring? Not only did he outclass him, he embarrassed him and made him quit. Ward's dominance over Dawson was similar to FMJ's dominance over Gatti. There was nothing boring about Ward on that night unless you got bored/tired of seeing him punch Dawson in the face.

                    Ward is boring because he doesn't have one punch ko power at an elite level. He does have immense skills though. I find that much more watchable than a guy WITH ko power that plays it safe any day. Of course this is just MY opinion.

                      You're a big GGG fan.

                      You don't hate on him at all....and that's all you do around here.
