    Their common opponent Rosado say Quillin has more power. I still think Golovkin is more powerful. Definitely more power to the body than to the head compare to Quillin.

    Quilen looked strong last night. They need to drug test him.

    Rosado is bitter. He denies Golovkins power. Said he thinks Golovkin does something with his gloves/wraps. If he can't believe GGG's power to be real then I'll say GGG.

    Wouldn't surprise me if Quillin didn't have more pop in his high punches, I think GGG throws a lot harder to the body and has a stiffer jab. The difference is all Quillin can do is punch hard.

    Just like Fernando Vargas had said that Trinidad had rocks in his gloves! :D

    Quillin was 182 yesterday and imo doesn't punch nearly as hard as ggg. Him ducking top fighters at 160 prove so.. He also had the flu the week of the rosado fight and rosado still thinks he must have loaded gloves or something . All that needs to be said

    Derrick Findley says he thinks Golovkin would win against Ward, but would you believe him?

    I don“t think it matters at all who has more because both of them have enough power. The difference is how they use it and GGG does it so much better. GGG beats Quillin in 4.

    Rosado said Quillin was heavier-handed, but GGG has more snap to his punch. Quillin weighed 182 for his fight, that's about 10 pounds on GGG, so that has to be a factor. Also, like some other poster already said, Rosado was skeptical about GGG's power, and he thought GGG moved the padding in his gloves to punch harder, which means GGG punched him so hard he thinks he cheated.

    We can ask Andy Lee if they ever fight, I think his opinion would be a lot less biased. What I would like to know is if Lemieux punches harder than GGG.

    The punch that Rosado was complaining about was the jab, which IIRC is what cut him. GGG power jab seems to have insane smack for a jab. Its like a Geale straight right. Its not a jab people tend to want to take all night, and forces people out of their game.

    I think its also where a lot of his power rep comes from. Not that his other punches arent hard, but the response to the jab seems to be "wtf thats a jab?", make it easy to set up clean shots which IMO are more effective than hard shots.

    Who has more power out of Peter Chocolate and Davey Lemieux?

    Their three common opponents (Rosado, Guerrero, N'Dam) all seemed much more fearful of the later's power than they were of the former's. They were all pretty much on their bikes wide-eyed and fearful most of the time against Lemieux whereas against Chocolate they were a lot braver and willing to take risks. Rosado actually started walking Chocolate down after 2 or 3 rounds. He hurt him with a right hand at one point which made him do a chicken dance and he was showboating as he was walking him down as well. He was actually on his way to winning that fight when the doctor waved it off because of the cut, IMO (Haymon's judges scorecards were a disgrace).

    Guerrero-Chocolate was pretty one-side but Guerrero took at least one round off of him and he too felt confident enough to showboat and walk Chocolate down a few times too.

    N'Dam actually won at least 8 or 9 rounds against Chocolate on my card, but obviously all those KDs in the ones he didn't swung it Chocolate's way.

    I see what you mean, GGG's jab is really powerful, it stops everyone on their tracks. His left hook always surprises me too, it looks a little odd and kind of soft, but when it lands it is devastating.

    Speaking of hard jabs, Kovalev takes the cake in that category. Only guy I've seen that can knock down guys with a jab to the body.
