    I was looking for a debate but I guess you don't want none.

    There are parts of Russia and Kazakhstan that are in Europe and parts in Asia, to the west of the Ural river is Europe, to the east Asia.

    Kovalev was born and breed to the west of the river, hence he's from Europe not ASIA.

    This is an interesting geographical debate. As far as I can see on the map Chelyabinsk is located on the eastern slope of the ural mountains which makes it an asian city. West of the ural Mts. lies Europe and east of it asia, the mountain range and to the south the river by the same name constitute the divide. Kovalev would still be european to my understanding as he's russian ethnically and russians are europeans, even those who cross the mountain range into siberia.

    Golovkin was born in karaganda in kazahkstan, thats asia, his father is russian and his mother I believe is korean so he's a euro - asian mixture.

    According to CST80 Golovkin punching power comes from the white side of his ancestry.

    Nervous and insecure.
    I give you some data with regards to HWs and instead of accepting the data, want to try and make out it is not real, possibly due to insecurity. Nervous as in uncomfortable

    You say it's daft because it's contrary to that garbage that you was writing. If you wanna push your bull**** agenda then be willing to defend it.

    I quite disagree with you.Neither Golovkin or the Klitschkos nor Kovalev nor any other fighter from the states of the former core soviet union is european.
    Neither Russia nor Kazhkstan is Europe,neither mentally nor geographically.

    Bailey has made some very good points in this thread.

    Some of them are much like the reason I considered Roy Jones the man at LHW over Dariusz.

    I say daft, because you are trying to imply these winning fighters are only winning because you are implying they are being given priority over home based fighters and that is ridiculous, because talent shines through when it is there. Just look at the Pirog/Jacobs fight as an example.
    So as I said daft comment

    I will return for the other posts and the seemingly insecure posters
