You are wayyy too easilly impressed.:yep When you see a runningback with a habit of carrying the ball without properly tucking it away....you KNOW one day he will fumble in a critical situation....didn't happen last week or last month....but you KNOW it's gonna' happen. When you see a fighter that pulls-back with his hands down... you KNOW one day he's going to get KTFO....it didn't happen last fight or last year...but you KNOW it's gonna' happen. GG is soon to be 32 y/o....and has the dreaded Mathew Macklin as his biggest win. If that's what you call rare on the level of Mayweather then good luck finding a seat next to the exit. GG puts all his weight on his front foot ...drops his punches...and pulls back with his hands down. If his ring IQ were so great he wouldn't be so flawed defensively.:deal I thought his chin was iron....don't look like that to me..look at the replays after the 4th round. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=brUYg35Nz14
thing is Maidana is a better fighter p4p than anybody on GG's resume. Let's see GG jump clean over 168 and fight a puncher..
from what i saw, macklin and stevens are equal or better than maidana on a p4p comparison. ...and ggg would not have a problem against a maidana class fighter at 168. :yep
RJJ was also the greatest athlete and had the best reflexes of any boxer in history, GGG doesn't.:deal
You're wasting your breathe on Mr Pibb. All you will get back is the squawking of a parrot: Squawwwk, Resume! Squawwwk, Resume! People like him can't analyze talent, only resumes. They are much better suited to watching sports with stats rather than boxing. Anyway, great post. Any of us with decent scouting skills can see it, and all the guys ducking him sees it.
GGG is getting a lot of hype while he fought just a few top guys, but I don't think broners competition is that much better and maidana fight fight showed us that broner is flatfooted , glass jawed afrobum.
This Mr Pibb has been arguing this for months and was arguing also prior to Broner losing to Maidana that Broner was the P4P talent and Broner would not lose to anyone @140 and 147 except Mayweather. He knows nothing. Many people pointed about Broner's flaws and all of them came out in the various step ups. Rees tagged him too much, as did DeMarco, unimpressive showing and adaptation in close W vs. Malignaggi and so on. If you knew what you were looking for, Maidana, or any good fighter for that matter, was and is an easy pick. 3G is a the real deal. Note that nobody was running from Broner. It's a sincere compliment when other fighters and other trainers and managers - guys with eyes that can see the details - run from you.
Did he? He fought Malignaggi, got beat up PDL and Maidana who he undoubtedly over looked and got beat up by Amir Frickin Khan. May I also remind you this is the man that fought Gavin Rees two fights ago, and absolutely dwarfed. Challenges himself, good'un Pibb.
LOL.. Golovkin KO's rejects from Jou Louis' "Bum of the Month" club and that makes him the "Real Deal"? LMFAO... Exactly WHO has Golovkin beaten?
