Comments Thread For: Teddy Atlas: Golovkin Looked HORRIBLE Against Brook

[Madison Boxing]

to be a fair it was a one those weird things in boxing for him to hurt his eye socket with the first punch thats why they stopped the fight and why he had so much success after the injury.

even abel said it was a very bad performance i dont know why u guys get so upset by this notion.

cause brook is a world class fighter, even if he doesn't have much power at middleweight its really not that shocking to think a world class fighter can land some good shots on golovkin. At the end of the day he got him out of there in 5 rounds,

He did that was real chance for Jacobs or Eubank Jr to get him

Atlas looks horrible ALL THE TIME! NO matter the Location, location , location...

it's because he is a fire man,he puts out the fire lolol

It's incredible the expectations placed on GGG. Brook was a huge WW, 36-0 record and possibly no.1 WW in world. GGG staggers him in rd 1, breaks his face in rd 2, puts him down in rd 3 and by 5 the guy is taking a battering and the towel is thrown in - "Golovkin looked HORRIBLE." You can't win pretty all the tim, FFS. That was a straight forward demolition and when you look back on this in the future, the history books will just show it for what it was....... another very easy V. No more, no less.

exactly this. I sometimes think the haters rate GGG higher than his fans do. Because they seem to have an expectation that he should never lose a round or get hit with a clean shot.

What proof do we have that brook is a world class fighter before stepping in ring with triple G? What's this murderous roll of WW he have knocked off to get claim of possibly being #1 ranked WW? He didn't respect a WW power well no **** guy two divisions below him doesn't change fact he ate a lot of punches was sluggish and sloppy him and his trainer said same thing so why y'all get panties all in bunch when ppl mention this?

I just think at 34 yrs old and over 300 amateur fights , Father Time is starting to show on GGG. To me he looked slow and reckless but was winning the fight and did damage to Brook. That being said the faster, tougher Canelo will beat him even though I think Canelo was ducking him for a while .

faster and tougher? Really? Canelo looks like hes stuck in mud with his footwork and his handspeed is less than impressive. He wouldn't have put brook away in 5 rounds like ggg did. Really did have his hands full with khan, getting thoroughly outboxed before inevitably khans chin let him down.

It's simple... because that was first top fighter and he exposed GGG.But Brook was too small.

[Slowhand]

Yes, rounds 2 to 4 GGG fought like a cave man. The question is Why. Doesn´t matter though, at least the other MWs seem to be less scared now. Of course, if GGG spanks Jacobs like he did Lemieux it will make Loeffler´s job difficult again.

yes by being the same height as GGG and heavier

It is what it is...

I'm a huge fan of GGG and I will admit he did not look like himself that night in the ring. I don't know if that was his strategy or if he was just off that night, I sure as hell no he isn't used to getting booed so that may have affected his mindset. ****, after the fight he even rated his performance a 3 or 4 so I don't see a big deal in Atlas saying he looked like ****. He got the W still in a pretty devastating way and I guarantee if Canyelo finally agrees to fight him he won't come out looking like that, I don't know why people still seem to think he has no boxing skills whatsoever. Just because he KO'S everybody doesn't mean he can't box, he is world class in my opinion and it's only a matter of time before he proves this to all of his haters!!! I honestly think he gets off on getting a couple good hits to his face, GGG is a monster and he has a great chin!!!
