I often hear how Golovkin was exposed vs. Brook in their 5 round fight. How Golovkin struggled and didn't look good. How many of you same people who said that Golovkin was exposed would also make the same argument that Mayweather was exposed vs. Conor? I want to see if there is consistency in people's arguments and if not what is the rationale why one struggled and the other didn't.
Mayweather vs. McGregor VS Golovkin vs. Brook

The difference is Mayweather was throwing 6 punches a round, when a fighter throws so little he's not trying to win the round.
Golovkin was trying to win, throwing bombs and getting lit up.
Golovkin got hit with more clean hard shots in any round you choose (apart from the last) than Mayweather did the entire fight.

Damn talk about butt hurt . . . . I guess Floyd gave it to you good huh. I can see by your running vid you are obviously a huge Floyd nut hugger. But hey to each their own.The difference is Mayweather was throwing 6 punches a round, when a fighter throws so little he's not trying to win the round.

Floyd threw 6 punches in one round and 10 and 12 next two rounds. After the 4th he stepped it up and eventually took care of business. Now Golovkin was trying to win the fight and nearly accomplished it early. He had Brook hurt in round one big time, he should have got a knocked down in round 2 and finished him in round 5. All the while he was actually fighting a boxer not an MMA fighter. Yeah if you engage in a big time war against a good fighter chances are you are going to take more punches than facing the equivalent of a average boxer (at best).
Facing an MMA fighter Floyd wasn't good enough to finish McGregor right away? Why did he wait around? Why didn't he just do what Golovkin did with Brook? Golovkn goes out and tries to finish a very good boxer and takes some hits, but still finishes the fight, he is "exposed".
Mayweather doesn't want to fight (for some unknown reason) against a guy who's not a boxer and that's fine. Again I don't think either guy struggled but the typical Floyd nut huggers going to find a way to hate on Golovkin while rolling in Floyd's crap saying how great it smells.Comment

Size of McGregor was key to him lasting and Floyd is not a big puncher he had to wear him down, if you reversed the size or even made them the same size Floyd would have stopped before 4. Connors a tough man its not easy to give 25lbs and take him out when youre not a big puncher, and don't forget Floyd is 41 and way way passed his best.Damn talk about butt hurt . . . .

Charlo Canelo etc would blow him out pretty quick.Comment

I think he'd get blown out by lots of average fighters, and I mean average fighters. Guys who you wouldnt even know their name.Size of McGregor was key to him lasting and Floyd is not a big puncher he had to wear him down, if you reversed the size or even made them the same size Floyd would have stopped before 4.

Wasn't good enough? He didn't even try for the first 4 rounds. He'a 40 years old way past his best, fighting a guy so much bigger, isn't a big puncher and fighting in a completely different way than he's used to.Damn talk about butt hurt . . . .

Golovkin was going balls to the wall and getting lit up by a smaller man.
Your comparison is ******ed.Comment

A top 10 ATG who has already proven himself can't be "EXPOSED" BTW..........
Only fighters that have beaten nobody, like Golovkin.Last edited by Robbie Barrett; 08-30-2017, 12:06 AM.Comment
