    I still rate him a great deal lower, than Macklin anyway.

    h2h Macklin would beat Adama. He just froze up and was overwhelmed by the moment with Golovkin.

    Fascinating balance to this fight. I thought Adama was winning that round with a minute left.

    Round 5

    Golovkin is throwing his jab past Adama's but failing to neutralize it. Adama is scoring well as he orbits Golovkin, throwing in straight narrow lines on Golovkin's nose. Golovkin switches up and starts to lead with powerful straight right hand leads, following up with left hooks, making Adama backpedal faster. Golovkin catches him as Adama nears the ropes. Adama is hurt but keeps moving, popping the jab.

    10-9 Golovkin

    50-44 Golovkin

    If it wasn't for that last 20 seconds Adama would have taken his first round on the cards.

    Golovkin is drained, Adama needs to press forward. If he does then he has a good chance of winning.

    He definitely was. Golovkin looked downright stupid for the first half of the fifth.

    5-0 golovkin , I like the way golovkin gave ground enticing his opponent on and letting him gain in confidence then GGG closed the round strong

    It didn't rock his world, but that was a legitimate knockdown, not some "off balance" issue. The hard right cross is why Adama fell. That isn't what a flash KD is.
