Evening chaps. Both house fighters win tonight. :)
They showed two undercard fights over here but I missed most of them. Ringwalks are scheduled for now with the Gonzalez fight and five past four am here and five past eleven pm ET over there.
GGG within how many rounds??? He needs to seriously fight Lee, Jacobs or fingers crossed Cotto. But I highly doubt they will happen. Firstly he needs to do the business tonight
I wonder who Kellerman is comparing Gonzalez to. I'm scared to think.
I don't see Sosa seeing the 3rd round at this rate.
Nobody in the sport is this accurate
Howdy, Kirk.
Gonzalez looked ridiculous in that first round. He has one of those Canelo type built up records, but he looks decent.
That was a beat down. Merciless. That was a bit like what Manny used to do to people.
Going by the post fight canelo interviews I think hbo is going to push for canelo v cotto before the year is done, I don't think golovkin is that close to fighting for the wbc belt(or whichever one cotto has) but yes golovkin could really do with fighting some bigger names soon and unifying some belts if he can..Quote:

Monroe better do something. This could be a very short card. :-\

I just think I should know who you are by 30 fights and see you at the top. Maybe that's my fault, but regardless, he is a monster. Excellent showing.
Kellerman: It's very rare that a guy your size gets a chance to fight here on HBO.
Gonzalez: Thank you Al Haymon!
Personally I think Gonzalez is the best right now.
Outstanding but predictable performance by Gonzalez
Golovkin knocks this guy out between seven and nine.

you very nice place!
Eventually you just run out of space. He'll get hit but he'll chop Monroe down
Could not have put it better. He is truly incredible. I wonder how many more weight classes he could do successfully?Quote:

I'd be surprised to see this go to a decision.
Quietish round. I just want to see GGG taken the distance.
Monroe resetting well trying to shoot off but looks like a Judah dance inbound:-X
ok that was beautiful
Welcome to the big time kid, brutal!
Literally saved by the bell.
Munroe earning my respect in the 4th. He aint gunna win this, but he can cause problems for some at 160lbs.
Monroe laying in with him, getting gritty inside!...Golovkin can also match Mayweather with that cheap elbow
Round 4 Monroe
Well, I'll be damned........
Monroe making a fight out of it.
Monroe doing some nice work. Guys got metal. The Kazak is looking for the right hand highlight reel a little to much
Come on Monroe, take him the distance.....GGG is a monster, but taking 30 punches in a round? That is just sloppy.
LOL...... RJJ not cutting Monroe any slack in there.
"Don't get me wrong, but Monroe ain't doing shit in there. He's just letting Golovkin hit him."
Watching this fight I'd pick Mayweather to beat GGG.
The blonde ring card girl gets the Kirkland Laing seal of approval. The fight isn't too bad either. Monroe in trouble here.
Oh well, fair effort from Monroe, but the power got him. I have no idea who Monroe is really, so come on Golovkin fight someone!
Golovkin has some serious power. Not even full blooded punches seem to turn the legs to jelly. He's a beast.
GGG starting to look like a phony protected fighter.Quote:

Big balls by Monroe, hit Golovkin with ease in 4th and frustrated him it looked. Then it all caught up. Nice scrap
