I'm not feeling the excitement either, but I will be watching.

Re: Willie Monroe will expose golovkin

Golovkin is sort of like the attraction that Mike Tyson was where you almost dont care who is the opponent, you just want to see whats going to happen to them.

To be fair though Mike Tyson was an attraction and the money involved forced the best in the division to face him so he could become unified.

I dont think Golovkin is exciting enough to ever be that big of an attraction. He can criticise Mayweathers style and say he wants to be exciting but hes not, hes methodical not exciting.

Agree with you on that.

His physique was impressive at the weigh in but that wont help him.

Kovalev is definitely more exciting to watch than GGG. His slight chin vulnerabilites add to the excitement, and hes a bad motherfuka.

I fing triple G more exciting. Everything he throws is with bad intensions and he always comes to entertain. There is very little weakness's he has.

Unless Monroe is planning to pants Golovkin during the final instructions I can't see him exposing much. Decent skill, great game plan but eventually his back will hit the ropes and it'll stay there on time too many.

Hmn, so he is pretty good then? Just read that he is actually the nephew of Willie the worm who beat Hagler, would be a cool story if he did well here.

I've only seen a few of his fights on YouTube he's seems pretty good but ggg is on another level to anyone he's been in with so time will tell.

I've got this set to record, I'm not bothered about staying up to watch it, I don't know much about the dude that GGG is fighting but I think if I was going to have a bet it would be a GGG ko.
Wouldn't we have heard more about the fight if he was a genuine threat?

I don't think Monroe will win, but I see several people are predicting an upset tonight:

Why Willie Monroe Jr will upset Gennady Golovkin and change the current landscape of boxing

This is what im getting at about Golovkin not being exciting. Hes workmanlike but no one gets excited when hes fighting.

Monroe has no punch, so nothing to stop Golovkin steadily marching forward as always and eventually stopping the guy.

No one is going to beat Golovkin with their back to the ropes and that's exactly where Monroe will inevitably end up.
