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.
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.
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?
What time does the main event start?
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
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.
When are we ready to rumble![]()
I guess this is the fight thread then?
