Did GGG age overnight????

He was getting schooled by a welterweight

Golovkin isn't that good, he never was. He's been fighting c/b- guys his whole career. This fight was embarrassing for him.

[Monaco Slim]

He won every single round and almost stopped him in round 1 so you're grasping at straws.

Look at the punch stats. Golovkin dominated.

Then again, I think he was looking drawn and ill leading up to the fight, and not acting like himself.

I think what happened was, Golovkin didn't have any respect for Kell's power. perhaps that allowed Kell to get some nice eye catching shots off. Some mustard on those punches too. I do believe Golovkin would have felt them, lke "Ohhh yeah you got me good there", but I don't believe Golovkin was in any danger of being closed to stopped.

Also as Joe said, he didn't look great before the fight, he also said just before the fight he was 100 percent so we have to take his word for that, but maybe he didn't want to make excuses. I don't know.

Brook is a very talent fighter with a granite chin, so its only natural he gets his fair share in.
To me it didn't seem like GGG was out of 3rd gear for most of the fight and only stepped it up through the 4th and 5th. Brook was fighting at his limit throughout.

watch the post fight conference, GGG was providing a big drama show like promised.

GGG didn't age overnight. He was simply exposed as a fighter who is not as good as his hype.

I'd agree with that.


Brook really is world class. Maybe he's not a middleweight but he was always going to do some good work while he was in the fight. By the 5th it was getting too much for him and you could see he was on his way out.

If Brook is in a fight for 5 rounds, it's a certainty that he's going to have a few good moments because he's excellent.

He's been slipping for a while now.

Power is the last thing to go...reflexes are the first thing.

GGG's reflexes are gone.

His punch awareness is gone.
