Golovkin would stop Brand, Smith and Barrera literally on the same night. He would make it look easy.

A hot mess sums it up. Brand and soliman are same type of fighter. Really hard to look good against. After watching him fight ward I can't say I would ever like to see him again. Ggg by tko cuts.Fun fight. Brand gets dismissed because he's older and looks like a hot mess the way he flails around. But, he puts up a good fight and gave Jack all kinds of problems. Brand has a quick uppercut I'm sure he'd catch Golovkin with. I think Golovkin beats him but no one has finished Brand and he's bigger than the guys Golovkin fights so I'm not sure if he gets finished.Comment

The issue is Brand doesn't have any power, and Golovkin would KTFO. It would be like Brook part 2. Probably worse.Fun fight. Brand gets dismissed because he's older and looks like a hot mess the way he flails around. But, he puts up a good fight and gave Jack all kinds of problems. Brand has a quick uppercut I'm sure he'd catch Golovkin with.

Alexander Brand is a super middleweight who didn't look all that terrible at 175lbs, is extremely difficult to hit, throws tons of shots from odd angles, and Golovkin doesn't have fight ending power at 160lbs (let alone talks of what the power is like up a division).
The fact that you think Golovkin stops Brand makes me doubt your boxing knowledge.
This is one situation where YDKSAB is perfectly fitting. I don't know if this is poor trolling or if you are actually serious.Comment

Come on man, do you really believe in your own words? It's not even a question if Gennady would be able to KO him, it's about how many rounds he would need to do it.Fun fight. Brand gets dismissed because he's older and looks like a hot mess the way he flails around. But, he puts up a good fight and gave Jack all kinds of problems. Brand has a quick uppercut I'm sure he'd catch Golovkin with.

Me saying Golovkin wins wasn't enough??? You guys can't keep moving the boundaries of reason and sanity and expect people to just go along with it. Brand just got battered by the guy who might be the best LHW in the world and didn't go out. Saying I'm not sure if Genady ko's him isn't unreasonable.
Let me know when Genady fights a decent opponent, then we'll talk about him KOing LHW's. It's entirely possible but stop acting like it's irrational to think it's anything other than a foregone conclusion.Last edited by Redd Foxx; 10-15-2016, 09:07 PM.Comment

Adonis Stevenson's punching power is a Desert Eagle; it it lands, it puts you away. Golovkin's power, as observed by how opponents have taken and reacted to his power, is a baseball bat; one shot will do a ton of damage but will rarely finishing anything (while 5-6 shots may just finish everything).
People can ignore it all they want, but when was the last time that Golovkin ended a fight with an opponent not cogent enough to simply walk to their corner and get checked on? Ishida, and then maybe Macklin with that body shot.
For a guy who's supposed to be this wrecking machine, the 12 fights since his first one on HBO average out to 6 rounds per fight (with some of the fighters being quite weak).
You take the type of pop that Golovkin has shown at 160lbs, and then translate that not only up to 168lbs, but against a fighter that's likely boiling down from the mid/low 170s already fighting fit.Comment

Actually any hypothetical scenario of Golovkin fighting north from his comfort zone without even stating the weight of such a bout is ******. If you're a true boxing fan then it's at least an objective are for conversation.
The Brand that fought Ward was what weight? Adding on 10 pounds in accurate reference for Ward vs Brand is important circumstance. 168 bout against Brand is also another convo.Comment
