Why Did GOLOVKIN Change Character After Jacobs?

[HarvardBlue]

Calm down buddy.

Jacobs is a great fighter, I just think he kept the extra weight because he's a little chinny (hurt by Mora, stopped by Pirog).

I'm not here to argue the P4P list or defend Golovkin from his haters. I think him vs. Canelo is probably about a 50/50 for me.

I didn't know 10 extra lbs can give you a better chin.

Maybe he came whatever he came in because he knew that would be his optimal fighting weight. Maybe when Conte said the very same thing we should have just listened and stop bring it up every time this fight gets mentioned.

If 40 pounds can, why can't 10?

Extra pounds will probably slow down the cumulative effects from taking punches but if you have a weak chin, YOU HAVE A WEAK CHIN. Did extra weight help Kahn's chin?

Maybe so!

Who do you got for Canelo vs. Golovkin?

I have Golovkin winning. I think he just has too many weapons for Canelo.

UNLESS, the recent signs of him aging is for real.

Here is the question whether it is helping enough. I doubt that many lightweights could knock out Tommy Robinson back in the day.

theres nothing more to sell for golovkin.....this is it...he got his goose

years of pretending to be some unstoppable legend while hbo paid him to beat up C level middlweights has finally paid off.....he can ride off into the sunset after possibly beating a guy who has 0 wins against middleweights.....

this guy has fought guys like lemiuex who has lost to an average 154lber....he has fought guys like stevens who has lost to club fighters like primera and brinkley

i actually saw some golovkin superfan in another thread the other day "look at what monroe and lemieux have done post golovkin"....oh really? didnt lemiuex beat glen tapia in his comeback fight? wasnt tapia stopped in his previous bout which was at 154? LOL....meanwhile monroe has beaten some guy named john thompson? and then beat 9 loss rosado? LOL....lookout world....what a legend golovkin is

meanwhile u got guys out here crying about crawfords resume...smh...this aint real life

Tired of these clowns not being serious. That is what happens

Be fair now, nothing can help Khan's chin. If a baby smacked him in the face, he'd see stars.

Who the heck is Tommy Robinson?
