Re: Did you see any flaws in Golovkin.
Golovkin is looking good in a desolate middle weight division. Nothing against the guy, you got to fight what is available. His "Everyones scared of me" PR campaign is getting boring. If you really want to prove yourself take less money and fight a Lara or a Ward or something like that. I'm getting tired of the Ole Team GGG calling out smaller fighters and pretending everyone's scared its seriously starting to get a bit ridiculous.
I do think Triple G is a monster but he's been matched wisely.
What Triple G is missing is the real marquee name on his record. He needs to fight names Cotto, Canelo. Maybe Andre Ward will undress Golovkin and expose all of his flaws for the world to see.
Or maybe with GGG, is similar to Rigondeaux at 122 - all of the elite fighters try to pretend he doesn't exist as they know what will happen if they face him.
I do think GGG is throwback though. He fights OFTEN at least 3 or 4 times a year. He has a granite chin, relentless pressure and sickening power which are enough to deal with any current middleweight.
Put him in with a prime Hagler, Leonard or Hopkins and things would get interesting. His power will always give him that chance of winning with one punch no matter who he fights.

Glad to see you giving GGG his dues. Good, sensible post.
Re: Did you see any flaws in Golovkin.
GGG can be open to counter right hand but that is because he is attacking so often.

His first ppv it is not bad. How has Ward done?
Re: Did you see any flaws in Golovkin.
Age, leaky defense, tendency to cut and swell and iffy chin. Its just a matter of time before he gets beaten.

Are we talking about GGG? Iffy chin? Please explain.

Agreed. Through post from Denilson
Re: Did you see any flaws in Golovkin.
He does coast in spots, more so gives up head. Haven't seen his chin as shaky though.
