    Well since you started a thread on it, why don't you just summarize what it says?

    I guess the conclusion is that he hits very hard. But yeah, I want to know what it says too, not just that there is an article about it.

    GGG hits very hard. It's irrefutable

    GGG would KO Cotto's fragile ass with a slap

    Ill try and summarize it. From what i remember. None of its news, but its good reading if youre a GGG fan, and horrible reading if youre not ehehehe

    It had words from some of his recent victims inc Geale, Macklin, Stevens, as well as a real tough veteran sparring partner

    Sparring partner had sparred wth the likes of Kessler, Abraham, Groves. Said NO body hit harder than Golovkin, his power was "horrible". A lot of guys simply wont spar with him, he often ends up having to spar LHWs

    Groves or Stevens or Macklin said his pressure was very intense and made you panic, while he expended little energy himself

    In fact GGG was one of the most relaxed theyve ever encountered in the ring because "he knew he was good". You could sense how relaxed he was in there, he had an aura

    All said the only way to beat him is to go to war with him. Dont give him anytime. And even that might not be enough, but its your only option



    Again none of its new, and it reads better in the magazine of course. We'll never know how good this guy is cause no one wants any of it. But the guys who have shared a ring with him know best, and "freaky" was a word they all used. So smiley wee babyface milkabar kid's a freak ladies and gentleman


    Pop into your local John Menzies and check it out for yourself. Well worth a gander

    He doesn't seem to hit as hard as the 160 monsters of the past. He stuns you then finishes you or wears you down. Guys like G-Man and Jackson had many guys out cold and leaving on stretchers. How many does GGG have? He hits hard but ive seen many guys hit harder at 160.

    Murata was quoted in the Japanese press as saying he'd never been hit harder...and Golovkin had 16oz sparring gloves and head gear...

    Ishida, Macklin and probably a bunch of other guys before he was on TV over here.

    Jackson is arguably the hardest PFP puncher in boxing history. That Golovkin can be spoken of in the same sentence with regards power tells you all you need to know.
