    Thoughts on GGG-Rolls fight and undercard?

    Just watched the main event. GGG looked pretty good, looked like he was working on a little bit different style and not just working behind the jab.

    If Rolls could have punched a little harder and/or had a little more punch resistance he could have made it a fight. First few rounds were pretty even though I didn't score them.

    Was the undercard any good? What did everyone else think of GGG and Rolls? Rolls looked kind of terrified in there at first but I thought he fought pretty well.

      It took him two rounds to get going and then he looked very good to me.

        There were some good prospects on the undercard. Brian Ceballo had a great performance.

                I enjoyed the card. I already put my $100 down on DAZN earlier this year and can't complain about getting 5-6 fights over a good quality stream every week or two.

                Ceballo was the standout on the undercard, he has a lot of developing to do but is definitely someone to keep an eye on.

                Ali Akhmedov also looks like a guy to keep tabs on.

                I thought GGG looked rusty in the first two rounds but to be fair he's been out of action for nine months. By round 3 he looked warmed up and seemed to land at will. I did notice more emphasis on body shots from Golovkin, something I wanted to see more of against Canelo.

                I wouldn't have bought this fight on PPV but as subscriber content I think this night delivered more value than your average HBO card used to.

                  just a higher standard of bum, lower standard of bumkill for GGG it tells us nothing.
