The Key to beating GGG

[La Kueef]

The key to beating GGG, is to find his G-Spot, which is his Body. Too many fighters try to aim for his head and neglect his body, but Golovkin has an elusive head and a very strong chin as he showed in numerous fights. However, his body is always there to be hit.

When you go to his body you slow him down. Eastern Europeans and Soviet fighters generally do not like getting hit to the body, we saw Chillemba hurt Kovalev to the body and was able to make the unstoppable Krusher gas out.

Brook needs to go to GGG's body EARLY, especially with hooks to the liver and kidney. Sap his energy. In the late rounds when GGG is tired, that's when you start attacking.

Let's see how that goes.

Agree 100 percent. Bully the bully. Too many fighters have been afraid to do it but Brook is there to win.

Fighters from other countries love getting hit to the body. Eastern European boxers are definitely unique for disliking hits to the body.

Let's be honest - this is some ****ty speculation that is about as useful as telling a striker to kick a goal to win.

Drug test him

Lets be honest- your post is ****ty and contributed nothing.

Drug test him

Pretty sure gennady is clean.

The 1st thing you'd have to do is actually step into the ring with him. He seems to have trouble getting middleweights to do that.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Don't let him setup and plant his feet..

Keep Ggg constantly moving, potshot him, and brutalize him when he gets too aggressive and overexposes himself.. Similar to what hopkins did to trinidad

I think you have to take the fight to him.
So many feel a good boxer - decent jab, feint variety, lateral movement, sturdy chin etc is the way but I don't think that is the best strategy myself I think if you box it plays to his strengths especially a textbook boxer. Its what everybody has done vs him his whole life. He's seen it 400 times before.
He cuts the ring off very well, he has huge power in both hands and likes to throw a lot of looping and wide shots and generates the most power at mid-to long range. The problem is he stays on you & has quick enough feet to get into range. You don't want him on the front foot!
Exactly why I see Brook losing not because of the size but he fights too tall and will get clipped probably as he circles out. Golovkin is wrong for him stylistically IMO
I don't expect size to be the deciding factor here in fact I think the size differential has been a bit overblown.

I think the key to beating him is educated pressure, a fighter who works behind a nice jab who knows how too fight small. He's going to have to be highly durable and have great stamina.
Great head movement constantly slipping, rolling & stepping around him showing him angles.
Target the body, make sure that right elbow is tucked and try bring the uppercut into play as IMO he has a tendency of slouching over too much & he keeps a pretty wide guard and likes to square up with his head on the centre line.

I'd of liked to of seen the Pirog fight. I think he is the only guy at MW in recent memory that could of provided a real test.

The thing is if you're on your toes pot-shotting him he's going to walk straight through you. 400 have already tried this & barely won a round between them.
That is what everyone tries to do yet any success that has came against him has been on the inside vs a guy fighting short that is sitting down on his punches. Ouma fight, rounds 4-5 vs Monroe
People **** on Monroe but at least that cat had a plan B, adjusted and went for broke. Yh he quit but he went for it and left it all there then got what was left knocked out of him. He got more done in 2 rounds than 25 of these guys have combined.

GGGs a two-handed puncher who constantly is on you, he's merely out of range a few inches & throws looping and wide shots it doesn't matter which way you circle especially if you're going to move bolt upright or be flicking out some weak ass jab.
He is always on you, constantly manuvering you there is nothing more exhausting mentally and physically and that is without him even landing.

I don't see it not saying a brilliant pure boxer couldn't there is always several ways to beat anybody but I don't think it's the best way of going about it. It plays to his strengths too much.
You'd think going to him would but he generates most power when pressing and not a lot of guys have had the balls let alone the skillset to attempt it.
