    And look what happened. You do realize the reason why he fought Berlanga so defensively from the outset and throughout wasn't because he tasted his power and wanted none of it, right? It's precisely due to the fact that the last time he went in against a big puncher, thinking he could go toe to toe and outslug him... he paid dearly for it. Professor Golovkin taught him an invaluable lesson, and Rolls was a good student and learned from it. Last night, he decided to box, took Berlanga to slick school... and if he had fair judges, it would've paid off with a W. It's beyond obvious at this point, you're not the brightest bulb when it comes to understanding how this sport works, you're objectively one of the worst posters on here in terms of **** takes. Because if you're attempting to imply that somehow Berlanga has scary power that surpasses GGG's. I guess that means you missed his match against Coceras. Who was brutally KO'd by Billy Joe Saunders of all people, well... Berlanga wore himself out beating on Coceras, and came within a hair of being KTFO himself after he got dropped by Marcelo. He was saved by the bell. GGG would KO Berlanga in 4.

    Yeah and Jacobs and Derev fit that bill and it wasn't just RJJ and Taylor.

    They fought completely differently than RJJ and Taylor

    GGG is a great middleweight, no doubt. But I don’t think his win over Steve Rolls is what proves that :sisi1

    Chad Dawson etc and Danny Jacobs has a similar style to Taylor.

    GGG still deserves to be on the P4P list. Change my mind.

    Hopkins was already 46 when he fought Chad, and no Jacobs has a different style, he's more of a mover and Taylor also has much more heart than Jacobs

    I knew Rolls had great chance for an upset, so I'm not surprised at all.

    Canelo and his fans couldn't be happier about the robberies either.

    Maybe but I think that's very debatable. I would say Jacobs and Taylor prime for prime are at a similar level but either way it doesn't matter because Golovkin beat Jacobs, Hopkins lost to Taylor 2x.

    Hopkins had his best wins at 40+ Winky, Tarver, Pavlick, Pascal etc are over all better wins than what he had at middleweight. Age can't be used as an excuse he lost his pro debut at 25, drew with Mercado at 30+.

    GGG cut off the ring against Rolls.
    Berlanga just followed Rolls around the ring.

    Fighting bums for the first 16 fights of his career didn't help Berlanga's development.
