    The way GGG took those hard shots off Canelo without blinking was scary and had me thinking he has some super chin, does anyone think he could take punches from the smaller MMA mitt?!

    Would he get hurt? Sure. But a KO? Hell no.
    Golovkin is a BEAST!

    I doubt it, look at the way McG punched vs Floyd. He wouldn't have Ko'ed any top MW.

    Granted he hits harder in the Ring. But I doubt that's enough to KO GGG, or Canelo for that matter.

    Truthfully? Probably not... Those 4 oz MMA gloves are THIN. I don't know how those guys' faces/heads don't explode when someone does a diving punch on the guy they knocked down...

    Does GGG get to hit him back? If Nate Diaz can take shots flush from Conor, one of the best chins in MW boxing history can.

    Actually, after Mayweather showed Conor has no real power I'll definitely say GGG can.

    Those gloves will more than likely cut GGG's face up due to the knuckle. I don't think Conor could knock out GGG with a free shot even without gloves. GGG has spoken about his fist fights back in his homeland. I don't think he's a liar.

    I think CM's punch power is seriously over exaggerated, don't misunderstand me, I wouldn't want him to punch me in the face but he does not punch as hard as some believe he does.

    Well, he was punching Floyd (Who has one of best chins of today and possibly boxing history).

    That uppercut he nailed Floyd with in r1 would have floored a whole lotta men.

    Yes, it's undeniable Floyd's chin is complete titanium, Hagler level.

    Yes, I agree with that. But that punch connor threw couldnt ko ****. It had no snap at all, he was pushing floyd's head more than hitting it. It was pitiful to witness.

    Did Hagler ever lose a tooth?

    Bro, May-Mac was ridiculously fixed. MacGregor losing in the clinches (LOL) was pretty much proof.

    Firstly, Floyd never lost a tooth, that was a blob of vaseline

    Secondly, even if that were true, he still didn't go down after a straight shot to the button that caused him to lose a damn tooth. That is epic in it of itself. He even leaned his head forward and absorbed the shot, which maximized the impact.
