Comments Thread For: David Benavidez: Golovkin Not Slowing Down, A lot of Years Left

[aboutfkntime]

I can't understand how Benavidez and Sanchez don't see that GGG is getting slower and slower. Just watch GGG-Curtis, GGG-Macklin and GGG-Wade. Focus on footwork, handspeed. You will see that in GGG-Wade, Golovkin looks very slow compared to GGG against Curtis or Macklin. Against Curtis or Mackin, GGG looks more athletic.

I don't believe any of that

you are just making excuses to justify the ordinary showings with Jacobs/Canelo

1) Golovkin has always been slow. Three years ago Tim Bradley watched him from ringside and could not believe how slow he looked..... that problem was exacerbated against Canelo, due to his quicker speed/reactions/defence




2) Sanchez admitted in black-n-white that Golovkin has not slipped, his opponents just got better

3) now you hear his sparring partner saying the same thing

Try to watch GGG-Wade just after GGG-Curtis or GGG-Macklin. You will see that GGG was more athletic and faster.

he looked faster, because they are slooow as molasses

he made them look slower

just like Canelo did to him

[aboutfkntime]

before that fight I said that Golovkin would be cautious/hesitant, when he realizes how sharp Canelo is

and I said that Canelo will lite him up like a christmas tree at times

and I said that Golovkin fans will say that he got old/slow

right on cue

I hope to see a rematch, Ronald Gavril is much better than the bums fighting in the WBSS 168 tournament namely : Jamie Cox and Avni Yildirim, I have never seen such low level boxing! but kafkod laughs at me for pointing out the obvious -- hes in denial as he is a E.U bum jr. fan.

Gavril is actually a really good boxer from what I saw in the Benavidez fight. Fundamentals are all there.

You are doing conclusion because Sánchez and Benavidez say that GGG doesn't declining. But tons of people( not only fans) say inverse. I am not doing any excuse. I just say what I see from GGG fights.

I tell you again and again. Watch GGG-Wade just after GGG-Macklin or Curtis. Ignore his opponents, focus only on GGG's movements.

Yeah, I don't care who Golovkin is fighting, he doesn't move as sharply as he used to. I think the Golden Boy team is using the right strategy, buying time, dragging it out, let the champion get older and older. Let's face it, 35 is pretty old in any sport. A size advantage buys you some years (Foreman, Klitschko), but....at 35, you're headed downhill rapidly.

I have been following this sport a long time

I see no noticeable decline

Sanchez and Benavidez are a lot more qualified than fans

the fact that Golovkin is slow, was first mentioned years ago

he doesn't move as sharply as he used to because his opposition is now skilled enough to punch him in the face

so he struggles with movers..... again, knowledgeable observers have been suggesting that for years

[aboutfkntime]

it is horribly naive to insinuate that Golovkin's problems with Jacobs/Canelo are not a result of him finally stepping up a class in terms of opposition

wow, what a coincidence

just like knowledgeable observers suggested would happen

wow, another coincidence

if you guys are thinking like that, it is all downhill from here
