I'm a fan of GGG, but I'd definitely favor Pavlik here. Stylewise, GGG is more-less tailor made for the 07 Pav. Kelly beats him up.
It's not an insult. It means blowjob. :yep (obviously it's the second meaning as the first one is the "pipe" you can smoke). So from now I'm gonna call you blowjob. :hat
Golovkin doesn't have the technical skills to keep KP off of him. Pavlik was never technically great, but he was good enough to use his footwork and left hand to make it damn near impossible for an opponent to avoid that big right hand for 12 rounds.
prime kp that beat taylor was a proven entity. current ggg is not. after getting beaten up by bernard, a drunk kp walked through rubio who is a level above 154 rosado. i cant see how anyone would make a case against prime and sober kp. drunk kp, not so much.
He's gotta have pretty good skills to be an elite amateur like that. The format is not really friendly to power punchers. Guys like Dirrell should be able to outbox nontechnical guys over 3 rounds with headgear with great ease.
Pavlik would knock him out in the late rounds, or win bby decision. You can't beat Pavlik by stalking him, because he has a steel jaw, hits hard and has endless stamina. Golovkin would get bullied.
