    Floyd didn't drag up guys from 140 and below? You know nothing about Floyd. Nothing.

    Nothing I said was untrue, Australian cocksucker. Which is why you cannot refute it.

    It is no lie. We all know he brought guys up from 140 and below many times. Why deny it unless you started watching boxing last week?

    It was entertaining to watch but I wouldn't call that a great fight, considering its background. When I watched that fight, I felt like Golovkin got very frustrated due to the punches he took. He did not get hurt, of course, but he got frustrated. Even the fact that he mentioned this in 'post-fight' interview would prove that.

    I generally was dissapointed with Golovkin and his performance. He threw crazy wide punches and got countered and it seemed like he couldn't outbox Brook in a normally paced fight. Being frustrated, he just did what a big guy is supposed to do to a small guy - forced the crazy fight and applied the pressure in a way that Brook could not properly defend any longer. That said, I don't remember him hurting Brook apart from round 1.

    It was a very good fight because Brook refused to take a backward step , pressed forward, and clearly hurt Gennady.

    Gennady then switched gears and broke Kell's will.

    It was a pretty good fight and I enjoyed it. For the people who say Golovkin looked vulnerable - Golovkin promised that he is going to a war. And he did, obviously he didn't feel Brook's power and opened himself for a good fight. I am pretty sure that GGG could've done it Lemieux way. Jab jab jab all night long.

    I think parts of the fight were great, the parts where Brook was able to land at will - let's dismiss the myth GG was 'letting' him do this, he simply doesn't have a great defense - but those moments were fleeting and only when Brook was boxing flat out, something no fighter can sustain. As soon as Brook took a breather or came under fire, it looked a mismatch - not in terms of talent but physicality.

    Brook threw everything he could as planned and couldn't do shitt so his corner pulled him out just as planned from the career ending beat down.

    Brook had no intention of going 12 rounds. He knew his corner would pull him out when he gassed and started taking a beating.

    So, you're making a big deal about this post and stressing repeatedly that you said nothing incorrect.

    Well, yeah, you did.

    "Floyd's entire career at welterweight was bringing up guys from lower weight classes" ...is that correct? So the fighter had to fight their whole career at welterweight or higher or else they don't apply. Strange. Cute little caveat you have there. You will try to play smart, but anybody can see it's quite dumb to consider Shane Mosley as fitting into the criteria you've laid out.

    But OK, I'll play anyways. Well... Carlos Baldomir. Andre Berto. That wasn't very difficult. No boxrec needed. Although it may have done you a disservice when you posted this and adamantly quoted others to stand by it.

    Everybody wanted Floyd to fight the best available, wasn't his fault that at that time most of the top 10 had started at 140 before moving to 147 (Sharmba, Judah, Ortiz, Maidana) or were simply the fight that everyone wanted to see (Hatton, Pacquiao).

    Hate to break it to you, but look at divisional rankings, a whole ton of those guys haven't been there since their debut.

    The only fighters who came up in weight to fight Floyd was JMM and Hatton and they challenged him. Not the other way around. He went up to fight a couple of fighters himself if I'm not mistaken. Now, he has 49 fights and I don't recall him challenging smaller fighters. If you can name some that he called out then I will gladly concede to your point. If you can't, then I maintain that you are indeed lying on the man. PS. I did start watching boxing last week.

    You watch boxing to see the biggest puncher at MW bully and pound on a welter weight possibly causing the WW career ending damage?

    You're sick dude.

    With that said, it was not a boring fight whatsoever. But the guy who was supposed to win, won, the guy who was EXPECTED to get KO stopped fighting only after 4.5 rounds.

    Great? LOL
    Entertaining scrap.. Sure
