It's so funny how everything comes to full circle. A guy who looks good fighting Euro bum competition is praised and hyped up as soon as he hits the states. He calls out all the big names, but will honestly fight more Euro bums before getting exposed by a world class level fighter. Isn't he from Canada as well? I made mistake earlier saying Cotto would beat him. Didn't really know he was that big, he's not making 154. Let him step in there with anybody with a jab and I bet he looks regular. This guy keeps the guard lo and has zero defense. Setup Dirrell vs Golovkin 2 and let Direll jab him to death. Sergio would end his career. I would say the young boy Demetrius Andrade is a better fighter at this point
He have an impressive amatuer including a win over dirrell which speaks for itself already. his skill seems good and his style is just awesome. i don't like to hype guys but he is impressive.
What is your advince for me as a Bute fan...? To stop preventing Golivkin from going to 168 ? Or to convince him to go there miself ? huh?!
These guys think Am wins mean **** now. All the Gennady fans are actually marking down his AM Wins as legit wins OH HE BEAT BUTE ALREADY OH HE BEAT DIRRELL ALREADY. If boxing do this, **** Lennox Lewis BEAT RIDDICK BOWE AT THE OLYMPICS. I guess we gotta add Bowe to Lennox's resume as well.
He was the first to expose Lucian's fragile mandible in a big way. I like 3G a lot,but Proksa is a toilet of a fighter and we need a bit of perspective here.You'll get the pro-3G which inevitably leads to the anti-3G. Can't we just say the guy's great to watch but he needs to tighten up if he faces a thinking-type fighter of decent pedigree? I saw posters yesterday who are among the most respected on the forum going crazy over the guy.:huh They obviously never saw Kerry Hope beat Proksa.But I'm still very much a fan of Gennady.:bart
I love how you sling them superlatives like there were no gray shades. Proksa wasn't robbed, it was a slight hometown nod at best. I had Proksa slightly ahead on the scorecards but some rounds were reasonably close and could've gone either way. I want you idiot to actually look up the meaning of a "robbery". And no, he didn't "destroy" Hope in the rematch, he simply stopped him. Not within 20 seconds of the first round but in the last third of the fight. Not too much of an achievement against a D-level journeyman, isn't it? Golovkin on the other hand, properly destroyed Proksa.
Trust you to come on and totally blow things out of context. I'm a big fan of Golovkin,but I'm well aware that Proksa is at best an average European fighter.He wasn't robbed at all.You have no perspective or knowledge on what constitutes a robbery as your previous posting shows. I did see a very average Hope give Proksa fits and that decision could've gone either way with no complaints. Proksa fought a dreadful fight against 3G,like an undisciplined amateur. Are you going to say he didn't? Please do.
I was actually being sarcastic about the Bute KO Aliviu.I've never gave it any credence in the grand scheme and don't hold it against Bute. I realise I didn't make my inferance clear though,so hands up. I'll even post the fight so people can see what was wrong with that scoring system(although I've never seen exactly where the punch lands); [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWxc75rR_3A[/ame] Oops!atsch Silly me. Wrong video. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQJXJsDDeok[/ame]
Golovkin did not KO Bute via chest blow, it was square on his ****ing chin. Also, Golovkin is a brilliant fighter with stellar amateur pedigree, and is currently a high-risk low reward for nearly everyone in the division. He isn't ducking anybody.
