8 defences off beating b hop, will he stick around at 160 to achieve that?

Punches to the back of the head are definitely not allowed but his land on the top of the forehead so I dont see the problem.
Murray showed great heart but was just a ko waiting to happen sitting on the ropes, the problem is when the other guy tastes Golovkins power they naturally back away and Golovkin is so good at cutting the ring down that before you know it your on the ropes anyway.
Loads of Golovkins opponents have said he puts you in places you dont wanna be with his footwork.

Golovkin really is unique and something very very special.

He turns his wrists inwards just before his punches land too which increases the power and accuracy which makes him a lethal body puncher.

Great great fighter and brilliant to watch.

Most definitely, beautiful to watch. Doesn't really matter what size the ring is for ggg he'll make it the size he wants. Kellerman was trying to ask him if he fears for his opponents when he's unloading. Ggg is obviously putting n the effort to learn English but he didn't grasp the question, I wish he had, I would have liked to hear the answer. When you can lift a guy off his feet, you have devastating power. I think it will follow him up or down with ease.

Still don't know what it feels like to get a World Title but I know it won't feel as good as this!

I know what he means. I'm always stoked about a trip to WHSmiths.

Gennady Golovkin has accepted not only Julio Cesar Chavez Jnr’s challenge to a fight but also a $1m (£650,000) side stake.
Golovkin smiled and said ‘sure’ when Chavez said he wanted to bet him that he will knock out the Kazakh at super-middleweight.
That requires Golovkin to move up from middleweight, where he is world champion following 29 stoppages in 32 unbeaten fights, including the last 19 in succession.

Without his power he's not that good of a boxer, I'll bet you GGG a million dollar of the purse that I'll knock you out if we fight ..

As the biggest pound-for-pound puncher in the world Golovkin has trouble finding big-name opponents and says he will gladly rise to the 12 stone limit to face Chavez and that bet ‘assuming he signs the contract this time.’
Chavez is committed to an interim fight in April and is Carl Froch’s target for his much-wanted fight in Las Vegas, perhaps this summer.
