    First of all Rosado advanced quite a bit since the Angulo fight 4 years ago. Second of all Rosado was aware of Golovkin's reputation and power when the fight was signed. It was probably the first time you saw Rosado on his bicycle for the whole fight trying to survive rather than battle it out with Golovkin.

    Solid fundamentals and good power alone are reasons to get excited.

    He's not the deity some fans are painting him to be, but he looks promising. Can't say he has a poor defense, he moves his head when he needs to, it's simply not his priority. He trades activity for patience. Athleticism is an ill-defined concept, he's a good athlete. Don't see how he's slow either.

    I'd favor Martinez but Golovkin is more accurate than Jr. and seems to be patient enough to draw Martinez in a bit instead of just coming forward with no jab or set up.

    The starter of this thread is some ***** white boy living in a god damn suburb somewhere in Rhode Island.


    He's just as pathetic as the Canadian Jew who spams facts and pretend he's Ukrainian.

    :patsch Sergio gets hit a lot more than Dirrell in every single fight he takes

    like I said, I do a ban bet on the fight. Dirrell already offered the fight to Sergio multiple times at a catchweight. Sergio doesn't want it.
    I'm a big Sergio fan, but I know what I'm talking about here. Dirrell is an awful style for him

    Dirrell would beat either...he's bigger, faster, has plenty of pop, and is equally if not more talented.

    He would ravage Geale.

    I'd like to see him fight Pirog though, that'd be a good fight.

    As for Martinez, I doubt he's the same when he comes back. Older + Knee surgery + broken hand all mean he won't be quite as fast or as effective offensively when he comes back, and his movement will be compromised. GGG can still take him out, as could Chavez Jr. in a rematch.

    There is holes in Golovkins game. I dont think this dude is the new marvin hagler like some, an I made a thread a few days ago saying I want to see quillin vs Golovkin, It would be a good matchup, Id favor gennady but I think quillin could exploit some things an i wouldnt be surprised if he pulls it off

    Why are people bringing up the Angulo fight? You do realize that Rosado took a way worse beating against GGG than Angulo? His fight last night probably shortened his career, his corner should have thrown in the towel around the 5th round.

    I like GGG and I think he will beat some elite fighters (I think he can beat Martinez at this stage) and lose to some (like Ward) . I don't believe he has the makings of an ATG but I think he does have the talent to make it into the HOF. I don't understand the hate, he KO's people and he is fun to watch. What is not to like?

    Final stats:

    Jabs
    Golovkin 96 of 253, 38%
    Rosado 24 of 159, 15%

    Power
    Golovkin 112 of 239, 47%
    Rosado 52 of 186, 28%

    Total
    Golovkin 208 of 492, 42%
    Rosado 76 of 345, 22%


    Regardless of what we all think Golovkin was giving Rosado a good old fashioned Beating on these Stats,dont forget Rosado was on his Bike and running for most of the fight,will be interesting to see if theres anyone out there who will stand Toe to Toe with GGG perhaps Martinez would and if so that will be a WAR both Sexy Sergio and Golovkins face will look like something from a horror story if the fight ever eventuates.!!!!
