    Guys just can't take Golovkin's relentless pillow assault.

    It's like chinese water torture. One drop doesn't hurt 500 drive you crazy, just like one Golovkin pillow doesn't hurt but the last 23 dudes just got too many pillow punches to remain sane.

        Lemieux probably does hit harder but he is pretty basic. Golovkin sets his shots up with superior technique and accuracy and he is very heavy handed. He isnt a one punch KO artist really like Julian Jackson, he breaks you down and takes your will or your orbital bone. I think his power has been overrated to a degree but even saying that he hits very hard. You dont stop 20+ opponents in a row and not have world class power. Stevens probably hits harder with one shot.

          He probably does honestly but hitting harder doesn't assuring anything in boxing. Casuals overrate the *** out of Power like Lampley does they think it is the end all be all in boxing which has been proven time and time again to be FALSE

          Overall Skills>Power and GGG is just more SKILLED than Lemieux and knew how to setup his Power Better. Broke Lemieux down and tamed Lemiuex Power with a Stiff Jab all night before breaking him down and eventually stopping him.

            Golovkin doesnt spark guys straight out because hes being responsible defensively and intelligent to not waste punches. If he went out there swinging for the fences he'd be near killing alot more guys, but his punches are more set up to land rather than spark.

              if paulie malignaggi had the same style as ggg he would have ko'd most his opponents but he chose to be a slick boxer. 2 weight world champ to ggg's 1!

                Same as Kovalev... These guys will wear you down on volume... Guys like Lemieux, Stevenson, Beterbiev will shut off the lights with one timers ...

                  I don't think he hits harder than Golovkin! From what i have seen of the fight? Curtis Steven's was walking forward showing Lemieux less respect in comparison to Golovkin! and its when fighters embody this attitude, they are SUSCEPTIBLE to being SPARKED OUT! (And that is exactly what has happened to him!).....

                  You can tell how hard fighters hit, by looking at how much respect their opponents give them! (And this respect forces them to anticipate and ride shots more often!)...

                    Maidana couldn't knock Khan out but Danny did, so does Danny hit harder than Maidana?

                      This!!

                      He still hasn't stopped a top 10 opponent, you won't catch quality opponents often enough with those loaded up hooks that aren't coming behind anything to set them up.
