    Man, that was some HARD-ASS work. Vannes seems to have improved a lot.
    That wasn't Golovkin sparring.

    Golovkin is the best fighter in the division.

    It's just sparring, which is very different from a match, but Golovkin allegedly handled Angulo, Quillin, and (somewhat) Alvarez according to this article. http://ringtv.craveonline.com/blog/...n-worth-driving-up-a-mountain-to-see-?start=2

    Here is Fisher's words on Golovkin:

    My first look at Golovkin was a treat. I think he’s the real deal. He won’t be able to fight in the States or on American TV until he resolves his contractual dispute with Germany-based Universum, which probably won’t happen until after November (when he says his contract expires), but ‘Superman’ is going to be worth watching whenever ESPN, Showtime or HBO discovers him. Mark my words.
    Golovkin is a very strong and durable athlete with all-around skill and excellent technique, which includes defensive prowess. He has good footwork. Pivots well. Makes use of feints. He’s brutal but crafty. If he can take a punch, he’s going to be very hard to beat.
