Golovkin: from Good Boy to axe murderer
- Thread starter 2-0-Sixx
- Start date
Seriously a star is born. It's rare to witness this kind of power.
Any MMA guys that are kinda whatever about boxing, make sure to watch Golovkin. His power is unreal. Cool as a cucumber in the ring. Great balance /footwork, cuts off the ring with ease. Intelligent pressure. Every punch he throws is heavy even his jab. He's stopped his last 14 opponents in a row.
His style is similar to that of the great Julio Cesar Chavez Sr, only with more power.

I wish there was a way to measure punching power like they did in Rocky IV. I'd love to see who hits the hardest p4p. I actually still think Wladimir probably hits as hard p4p as anyone but he doesn't fight with the abandon that a lot of guys do. In terms of 1 punch at a time, he has to be way up there though.
Better yet HBO invented a censor, a small chip that would go into the glove during actual fights to measure the force. Far better than sports science crap punching a dummy. Amir Khan said he'd do it and it was cleared by Las Vegas, but not sure why it hasn't been used yet. Maybe guys dont want other fighters to know..
Geale vs Barker is on HBO in August and GGG has a date on HBO in November. So the winner makes the most sense next. Geale was stripped a title last year for not fighting GGG and GGG beat him 15-3 in the amateurs, although Geale has improved a lot since then.
GGG may take a stay busy fight before then as he plans on fighting five times this year.
Sergio Martinez said he's willing to fight GGG in 2015.

GGG gonna fight 5 times this year??? That's bad ass. Some of these American fighters could take a tip from him.
Macklin looked like he was dying when hit with that body punch.
Peter Quillin needs to step to the plate.

I like how Golovkin can talk shit kinda about his own promoters (K2) and its ok haha:
"Klitschko? For me I don't like, seriously I don't like. I don't know why these big guys with big power just, why not action, not drama. Just very boring fights. I watch TV just...excuse me guys, not for me, I'm sorry."
Moar great GGG quotes:
"This fight is my present to the irish people" (after destroying Macklin).
Max- "Was this you at your best and that's how good Rosado is?"
GGG- "Nah no no. I think Rosado good boy"
"I wait just my shot, for my lucky punch. You know, just, I feeel him, just, I waant one just.. Come on Gabriel, give me just ONE couple shots!"
