    That's not true, sorry. Stevens (a big MW puncher) whacked him with some big ones to no effect. Some of his other MW fights saw him get tagged too.

    I guess Lemieux doesn't count for whatever reason you want to use.... Maybe you heard of Curtis Stevens?

    a couple of guys who can test ggg's chin are saunders = a sharp fast, blitz type puncher, andy lee a one punch ko artist when he lands. that is all.

    Stevens isn't a true middleweight and his power is only power to knock out bums. He has yet to knock out a world class fighter.

    i think the upcoming bunch in khytrov,sergey dev, murata and quigley could do something too

    anthony fowler said he would be ready to beat ggg in a few years too, he never lies

    Maybe you didn't realize Stevens and Lemieux only knock out bums. I mean elite power to knock out other elite middleweights. It is like saying because Ty Fields has a high knockout ratio fighting bums that means he is a elite world class puncher.

    I think a prime Sergio Martinez would have given Golovkin a hell of a fight.

    Why does Cucknelo not do VADA yet GGG does? Yet you claim it is Golovkin taking the easy route. Try answering before your ADD kicks in again.

    Golovkin is going to be a monster against Jacobs. Even without the following incentives, GGG is just a better, stronger, harder punching and more durable fighter. GGG heard some criticism for his effort against Brook and he will want to clear that up against Jacobs. GGG knows he has to win and be impressive against Jacobs to insure that Canelo can have no valid excuse to not fight him in September. Look, GGG has never needed extra motivation to go out and defeat anyone but if it is possible to be even more motivated than he has always shown himself to be, it will be against Jacobs and Canelo.

    GGG has never been in with a fighter that is gonna hit him as fast with hard punches as Jacobs will. Jacobs is gonna blitz his ass at some point early and I think that his chin will be the only thing that saves him. If Jacobs don't take him then, I think that he is gonna be in real trouble from GGG.

    I cant remember such a fighter.

    Every good fighter he beat during his run that ran him tough or beat him less Cotto, GGG dominated and destroyed.

    I get the hate for GGG and the recent wave of non American, mainly Euro/Asian dominance. Some fight fans were so in love with Mayweather and Sergio and Pavlik and BHop etc when the crop arrived and decimated thier heros best wins who ran em ragged, their heros were faced with retirement or continuous ducking until such time as they handed their crowns over while their tales curled tightly between their legs.

    Tough knowing that as an American, I felt safe below 175 lbs, that the Former Soviet boogeymen and UK boogeymen were safely tucked away in the larger weight classes. Now.....the UK has more titlists than any other country, and thiers a new former Soviet phenom on the horizon every day just waiting to shatter the jaw of the so called slick American runner.
