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

[Derranged]

Golovkin looked sluggish, tired and sloppy. Something was up with him that day. I still think he might've been slightly weight drained as he looked skinny and zombie like at the weigh-in. Whatever the case was, he did not look right.

yes by being the same height as GGG and heavier

yeah, "same" height


Brook's 168 pounds means nothing, he has welterweight body frame.Broner was 157 on fightnight, heavier than Mosley, Oscar and =Margarito.But who taylored better for the welterweight division and physically stronger?




Use your brain dumb b1tch

He got hit with every combination Brook threw at him.

He was the much bigger man so got away with it, but he has zero defence and no head movement.

One fighter looked "horrible" , the other fighter "impressed".
The "horrible" fighter wins by TKO less than halfway through the fight.
The impressive guy goes to the hospital after the fight. smh

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,

You don't have to defend everything he does. I thought he looked terrible he thought he did terrible but it's not like Brooks expose him or anything it's just ggg decide not to box. His swings were wide and miss badly at times. He never look that out of control ever but I still had him winning 3-1 dominantly but it gave people confidence to fight him now so it's not that bad of a thing that he looked bad.

No no no let Atlas sell these dudes this pipe dream.....hopefully it will speed up the 160 cleansing and move to 168.

It's quite amazing the hate this guy gets from some people. Seriously, i think anyone who doesn't enjoy a GGG fight should find another sport. He either KO's his opponents early, or lets it run and makes the fight exciting for a few rounds before KO'ing his opponents. Always on the offensive, never takes a backwards step, meek and humble and above all entertaining. When you have a boxer like that the question of how good they actually are should never need to be raised. Just sit back, crack a tinny and enjoy.

I know I don't need to, but I find the criticism like atlas's to be ridiculous. He wasn't bothered about what brook was throwing and he scented blood after wobbling him with a pretty standard shot in round1. People make it out as if GGG's whole approach was wrong, he got the guy out of there in 5 cause he pressed on forward and broke him down, his tactics were spot on

To be honest he did look bad.He looked sloppy as **** but his power made the difference.

yea, theres pretty much nothing to dislike from this guy, usually the guy coming to the uk is seen is the enemy but people over here were struggling not to like him and his style. Can only speak for myself but I'm a fan cause of his style and his attitude, not his 36-0 record, if he lost i'd still be a big fan
