De La Hoya: Peter Quillin Destroys any Middleweight at 160 - Boxing News
I agree with Oscar
That is a pretty embarrassing flat out duck. Golovkin doesn't have to go backwards to prove anything. Quillin is like a 20% cocoa, milky sugar filled snack, he can call himself what he wants but he ain't Chocolate.
De La Hoya: "I wanna see Golovkin vs. Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam and then I'll see if he's good or not," De La Hoya told his social network followers.
Oscar, since your so confident in Quillin, how about making GGG-Quillin, so we can see how good both are ;)
Finito - What makes you so high on Quillin? I see a big puncher with some stamina issues who can be outboxed. Am I wrong?
DelaHoya is an embarrassing human being. He is always wrong in his predictions. He lost most of his big fights too.
ODH is talking rubbish and just promoting his fighter. Kid Chocolate is good and it would be a good fight against Golovkin. Lets get that fight on.
Im not like super high on the guy but because the MW division is so thin at the moment, IM just riding with the one with potential and the guy with a style that most resembles mine happens to be QUillin..
You are right. He does have flaws which is why im not a hardcore fan of him yet. As you mentioned, his stamina is suspect and dude has shown lapses of losing focus inside the ring but that's probably because his fights has been so easy.. He needs to face a real challenge who'll push him and give him a wakeup call..
I also do not like his finishing ability.. He's scored many knockdowns and could have finished the fight earlier but he seems to have a problem with capitalizing..
But overall, I like his style. He has good balance, footwork, but most of all, Im really high on his punching technique. Most important thing is he's been slowy but surely elevating his game after each bout.
I like Quillen but right now I would not fancy anybody's chances vs Golovkin. I am not so certain Pete can be "outboxed" so easily and I haven't seen many stamina issues. He has big pop I know that much, and he also has fast hands. I do wonder how technically sound he is, right now Golovkin looks the better fighter on that basis but it would be a fun fight.
I'd be much happier if the fight was made. Oscars just trying to keep him afloat in minds adrift if the second coming of Jason voorhees that is Golovkin so I can't knock him, but popping off with destroy everyone is empty boarder line desperate talk. The kid can fight, he merits attention! I give him a sharp chance against what I've seen of Golovkin!
I got a hundred bucks that says they never fight.
On a related note, God I hate this eras interpretation of risk and reward.
Okay who signed the exclusive contract to the network that doesn't allow Haymon fighters? You can say he signed before but we all knew it was headed that way. If you are Showtime why do you let a guy who you pay 400,000 to be on undercards fight on your rival? Why do I have the feeling these people are the same ones who think Floyd was scared of Manny? Typical double standard how come people are saying Quillin should go to HBO? Why aren't people calling for GGG to go to Showtime? We all know why.
Also I love how fast people are to dump on N'Dam put him on GGG's resume, where would he be? He would be two, GGG fans have mental handicap where they think Ishida is an ATG.
This makes no sense. With all due respect, I think you need to understand there is very little difference in GB and TR. If you think DLH is an honest, upstanding citizen, I just don't know what to tell you. I'll tell you what, if there is a promoter out there that appears on the surface to be legitimate and transparent, it would be Matchroom and Eddie Hearn, not they they are perfect.
Honestly I'm not fooled by either I've seen the way GB treats Lara and maybe sets up there guys for gift decisions. Also I'm not sure why you bring up Top Rank GGG is not Top Rank so it's not an issue. But the fact that GGG has a contract with HBO and Golden Boy has called up HBO and offered them Paulie-Broner and Hopkins-Stevenson and they said no means Quillin can't duck GGG, the only way Quillin can be accused of ducking is if HBO sends Golden Boy a contract , just because GGG wishes to face someone doesn't make it a duck, if this is a duck than Mikey and Donaire are ducking Mares and Manny is ducking the Golden Boy welters, it gets on my nerves that the GGG fans pretend there is no network war that was my point.
