People need to quit with the bashing. Just like any fighter, past or present, stepping up in class has humanized GGG. Just like any fighter he is a tad overrated. What i learned from the GGG/Jacobs fight is that GGG is a good fighter who is worth his mettle. He stood in there with a good fighter on Saturday night and held his own. The questions weren't really about Jacobs, we already knew the ups and downs of Jacobs, but our curiosity was Golovkin and what we would learn about him.
As for his chin= A
Took a big shot from Jacob in the final round and wobbled but never went down.
Stamina= B
seem a bit out of gas towards the final rounds
Skill= B
Limited in terms of mixing up his attacks. Slow on the feet and robotic at times, telegraphing his punches. Tend to load up too much.
IQ= B
Needs to learn how set traps and not just attack and destroy. This will be his let down against other good fighters; They will neutralize his style, and it will be up to him to adapt and set traps. It will serve him well against a fighter like Jacobs who was exhausted but fighting on sheer will.
