Andrew: I clearly see the belt now!

 

As you wish (it was already done by someone):

It is not complete, still, it is about 10 minutes of the fight - including the 1st round when I was afraid Golota was about to lose and the stoppage (a little bit premature IMHO as well).

 

I'm starting to believe that Golota is really gonna do it! And tonight was the first big step. He showed us at age 39 he can still brawl with big guys like McMuffin if need be, but more importantly he showed maturity and heart when he was wobbled a bit in that first round (although I don't think he was as hurt as many were saying). He gets himself a nice TKO victory and he finally, FINALLY grabs himself a belt. Not one of THE belts, but it's still a great start.

We may just pull this off.

:happy :happy :happy

 

PLease tell us about the Golota at MSG experience.

:hat

 

Remember Hoax, any man that weighs 288 lbs and cracks you in the chin you are gonna do a dance. Sounds like a good win for the G MAN!!!!!!!

I'm on this train for the long run!!!!!!

Go Golota!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

One more thing, I really liked how his punches looked! Especially that left jab and HOOK. Golota hasn't been able to hook hard like that since the Grant fight. Looks as he has learned to put some steam behind it again. And the left jab looked pretty damn snappy. Not quite Golota '96 but a hell of a lot better than Ruiz '04 where he virtually had NO JAB! Golota's handlers were right when they said we were all gonna be very surprised at his left arm. Remember that statement??:deal It's turned out to be authentic! The right hands could have been a bit straighter but he he got some nice ones in there and I liked how he kept sneaking them in as he'd move to his right, showing good ring generalship. He showed a great chin as he took a lot of heavy shots from a 6'6 288 lbs man, although he took far too many as his defense has more holes than a dozen glazed donuts.

Over all, I must say I am very statisfied!

:happy :happy :happy

 

Yep! Golota's defense sucks, but he still has a solid chin! Much more solid than a certain Ukranian who is deemed number one heavyweight in the world.

:deal

 

After watching the you tube video I can say that Golota did look tight in the first round, but remember McBride is more akward than Golota. I could see that left hand trying to snap a little bit. (Hey it's progress) His defense has always been shakey, His curios chin has bailed him out on occasion, and he was hurt by that ****in clubbing rabbit punch McBride threw in round one. McBride actaully has improved since the Tyson fight. Overall B - showing by Golota from the 3 rounds I saw.


Oh ........





































By the way...






























GO GOLOTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Did I mention,

And New IBF North American Heavyweight Champion,

ANNNNNDREWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW GOOOOOOOOLLLLLOOOOOOOOOTTTAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!

 

PETER WOULD KILL HIM IN FIRST ROUND SORRY TO SAY THAT BUT ITS TRUE

WHAT A SHITY DEFENCE NOT READY ENOUGHT FOR A TITLE

SAID ONCE ELIMINATOR MEEHAN vs GOLOTA:bbb

 

Yup, that's the fight I'd like to see Andrew in right now. He still needs a couple of fights before facing the top dogs. This was Golota's first fight in a couple of years really (the Bates fight wasn't much of a fight).

GO GOLOTA :good

 

I would like to see Golota in another fight or two before facing top opposition. His chin is indeed good, but thats not a good strategy either. McBride seemed faster then I expected, but Golota was still getting hit too much by him.

Take a look at the last round, when Golota stunned McMuffin, looks as if before throwing that punch Golota was just as stunned himself. Either way, good job, if anyone has the full fight, let us know!!!!
