What will GGG do when he faces someone like barkley who he can't KO and walks through his punches? Barkley had a pretty powerful overhand right that he was willing to take 3 punches to deliver 1 of his. Barkley was the ultimate stalker, could cut off the ring and delivered body and head shots throughout the distance. Prime Barkley has a TKO 3 win over Tommy Hearns but loss by decision in the rematch. Who you got?
Barkley was an animal, had a great counter left hook and could box from distance or up-close. I felt he boxed superbly from a distance against Duran for the most part, and superbly up-close against lb4lb #1 Nunn...arguably winning both fights! At his peak though back in '85-'86 against Scypion and Kinchen when Hagler didn't want to know. (He outboxed Hearns in their rematch and won the decision!) GGG would struggle do dent the guy and is too hittable and Barkley too strong. Barkley TKO.
Barkley wasn't the most skilled guy in the division, but he had great stamina, a chin of Diamond, and the heart of a real boxer. If he hit Golovkin (and he would) like Geale hit him, it would be a short fight and Golovkin would find himself in the exact position he put Geale in. Barkey by TKO.
Barkely beat hearns in the rematch too dumb ass Barkley also got his ass kicked by a 38 year old 5 foot 7 former lightweight name roberto duran. GGG would do the same
GGG is looking good against mediocre opposition. People have to remember, this middleweight division is really weak. When Hopkins reigned, his division was criticized, but this current middleweight division makes Hopkins' look like the Golden Era. Guys like Geale, Barker, Stevens, etc. likely wouldn't even be top ten guys in Hopkins era.
LOL. Anyone comparing Golovkin the nobody to the ATG Roberto "Hands Of Stone" Duran is really the dumb ass. :rofl:rofl The point of this thread seems to escaped you and that is simply because although you make for a good booty licker, ydksab.
There you have it! Straight from the mouth of the leader of the gang of mentally ******ed Boxing fans of Russia.
