    It is pure china my friend. Ask Blizzyblizz if you dont believe.

    That is why he is matched so carefully.:deal

    Hint:Take a look on his legs, legs of Flamingo with Polio, -Blizzyblizz *tm

    Man, imagine Trinidad in there tonight instead of Monroe.. GGG's head would of been flown clean off with one of those crisp, chunky left hooks.

    GGG wouldn't fight a prime Trinidad the way he fought Monroe. You don't get to be an amateur legend with no defense. You will see his defense when he needs it.

    his legs seem fine, but he's been matched well.

    Exactly this. He's reckless against featherfists only.

    I think someone at super middle could gain his respect. No one at middleweight is going to do it, or even beat him for that matter.

    I'm of the opinion that he likely has a solid chin, That being said, the only top MW's that have the power to test it and the ability to weather some of Golovkins shots are Lee and Quillin and neither one wants it with him. The top shelf of this current crop are really devoid of power. I don't think Jacobs is sturdy enough to survive the incoming to deliver any power. I'm not sold on Cotto's power as a MW. I doubt his chin get's tested in this division.

    Still not sold that he has an Iron Chin. If he had a Glass Jaw it would have been exposed by now. The jury is still out. He has a good Chin but there is not enough evidence to say it is an Iron Chin yet.
