Comments Thread For: Brook Saw Upset: Golovkin Was Getting Tired, Breathing Heavy

[DJ_Quaaludes]

Rewatch the last round without the fanboy goggles. Golovkin was punching himself out and Brook wasn't going down. Golovkin's shots were losing their pop.

Brook was like "is that all you got?"

You're right, it was my 'fanboy headphones' that must've caught Brook in the corner after round 4 looking done and saying to Ingle 'I can't see....', to which Ingle had to try to pump him up by saying 'this is what it takes to be great, I'm watching every moment....'

Why didn't Brook vehemently protest the stoppage? Who cares if he couldn't see? GGG apparently wasn't hurting him, so what harm was there in him continuing? Please, if someone wants the fight stopped because they can't see and their eye-socket is broken, they are hurt, regardless of whether or not they say they are.

Oh Lord: I am not writing Kell off of anything. But he was almost killed in there, check the punch stats, watch the fight without any volume on the TV. He was slaughtered. He had a second great round and that is it.

Almost slaughtered. LMAO. Actually, for once, the judges had it close. 2 of them had it 2 rounds each, 1 of them had it 3 to 1 Brook.

Cognitive dissonance bud, look it up. LIKE I SAID, YOU HARD HEADED GOOFBALL, WE ALL KNOW WHAT HAPPENED IN THE FIGHT.

You just can't admit your guy was tested. That's fine. We non GGG addicts will get a good laugh soon as your guy is dismantled within the next couple years, because every top MW and SMW will be watching the Brook fight over and over with their trainer. The cat's out the bag, bubba. The formula is found. All that needs doing is expanding on it.

Tested?

He won all rounds(3 if you're a hater), outlanded brook in every round, and gave brook a career ending beating.

But hey this is boxing scene so

GGG got tested doe!

If brook hadnt been outlanded in all rounds and hadnt taken a horrific beating then he would have won doe!

The blue print has been revealed doe!

Canelo gonna tax GGG doe! Is just that Canelo likes to give up titles, dissapoint his fans, use diuretics to make lower weights, demand fights at canelo weight, and damage the sport in which he is the highest draw. But you wait and see, when GGG hits 40 and Canelo is still prime in his early 30's GGG is going to get it doe!

You know what?

I watched the fight again.
Tis time Kell won in the third round.

I don't know how Brook saw anything - his eye socket was caved in.

That 'doe' shiii has to be the most jr high dropout b.s. ever. But then, so is your analogy of the fight.

There is no analogy here. You were given facts.

You keep talking about this formula that brook showed but it makes no sense. If anything ggg was tested more by ouma than he ever was by brook and ggg has fought much better fighters than ouma that had no success.

If you bring some power like stevens and lemieux did then GGG will use his skills, he will barely lose a round, and will slowly break you down.

If you bring no power like Ouma, monroe, and brook then GGG could easily care less if he gets hit. He will still win the rounds, he just doesnt care if he gets hit. He knows pitty patters like brook, and monroe wont knock him out, but he will break them.

You just cant see any of this because youre using them bias goggles, and drinking the hate kool aid like the good sheep you are.

You're still in a fantasy world if you think anyone who doesn't buy your GGG-aholic's lines are GGG haters. I have seen the talent he has. He obviously is well schooled. And, like Ward said, GGG gets hit... a lot. And NO fighter wants to get hit. And if you think Brook is a light hitter, go find him and let him punch you a few times. Your bwaaaay was tested in a big way for a couple rounds, yet still, just like the rest of the GGG-aholics, you can't even accept THAT. Seems like cognitive dissonance suits you. Oh well, your loss not mine.

Theres no denial, or inconsistency. GGG will take his time if you have power. He will get cute, out jab his opponent and slowly break him down.

If you have no power doesnt care if he is hit by light punchers because he knows he can knock them out. Yes he takes a risk doing this, but he understands the realities of the sport.

The guy is not that big a draw, he fights all over the world, and will often be a foreigner. He fought 18 times in germany, if that doesnt teach you to be skeptical about boxing corruption then nothing will. If you can go for the stoppage you should, specially in foreign land.

Tell a person that a guy outlanded his opponent in every round, landed the harder blows, hurt his opponent the first round, messed his eye in the second, knocked him down in the third, got his opponent to almost quit in the fourth, and forced the stoppage in the fifth. The guy stopped landed some punches but never really hurt his opponent. The casual will tell you "damn, that was a massacre". However if you show the fight to the person and didnt tell him any of this, you could get any scorecard imaginable.

Theres all sorts of variables that affect people scoring a bout. Theres the expectation of how the fight will go, crowd reaction to the hometown boxer, nerves, whether the ref declares a knock down or a point deduction, who wins the closing minutes, and all other sorts of variables.

Ask fighters like whitaker, wright, herrera, or paulie what they would do if they had power, knowing they are not the bigger draw? They will probably tell you they would risk getting hit more, if it means it could get them the stoppage.
