    GGG has Iron Chin, spars & KO's Heavies,

    He would bulk up to a solid 195, could he beat Chris Byrd, a former lighy heavy??

    Stop trolling.

    What happened to your garcia handle? Sad thing is, people will actually take you for a Golovkin fan.
     
  3. Yes, Golovkin hits harder than Povetkin, therefore he can knock out most HW's.

    GGG hits harder than Povetkin according to Povetkin's regular sparring partner

    He would knock Byrd the **** out

    A small HW like Byrd - yes, Byrd himself - no.

    Paul Willams at 147 would spar Glen Johnson and other Light Heavies and basically hold his own. It didn't stop him from getting knocked out by a small MW [at the time] in Sergio Martinez.

    The question is, what are these HW's Golovkin is sparring with? A real skilled HW would knock Golovkin out, he's no defensive genius, he got tagged by old Ouma and Rosado hit him too.

    Not someone at world level like byrd. A journeyman with a below .500 record maybe.

    Young, physically prime, aggressive Wlad couldn't do it, but I'm sure GGG would. :lol:

    Byrd is way....wayy to slick and had a really solid beard. No way he comes close to stopping him. Byrd feasts on plodders.
