    Look at all these sad chumps boasting about GG winning a cherry picked mismatch. One he dragged up from two divisions lower.
    Embarrassing.

    I don't think Golovkin would be as reckless against a natural middleweight unless he feels their power holds no value LOL I think the word "exposed" is a bit extreme in this case but we can clearly see that he doesn't particularly "like" taking shots so a bigger punching natural middleweight approaching GGG for a "street fight" may have some success!

    GGG and canelo have sparred many rounds and know each other well. One wants the fight and one is running, I'm just saying.

    thing is brook could not hurt him

    i didnt see how his power can move up 2 divisions with him

    ggg knew this once he got hit by brook

    he said this guy has no power

    ima let him hit me so i could knock him out

    yeh that was the main reason brook was going to lose, firstly he couldnt hurt ggg consistently and he was going to gas carrying aload of puffy muscles that dont suit the boxing ring.
    it wasnt just his crushed orbital bone that stopped the fight, he was getting increasingly tired.

    He could've ended it, yes. But he was trying to box early and looked poor doing it. What you saw in round 4 & 5 was him imposing his size and doing his street fight. Straight from Golovkin's mouth, he abandoned the boxing after round 2 because it wasn't working.

    bull****. ggg won and nearly ko brook in the first, brook goes all out in the second and wins it, they are even at this point. pretending that ggg was losing because he allowed brook to win a rd is asinine.
    what you saw in rds 3,4 and 5 is ggg getting annoyed at this plucky little brit who wants to play rocky at his expense. ggg knew brook was getting ko the second brook hit him with his best, it was just a matter of how he was going to go about it... he chose the quickest route.

    If it was so easy for GGG , why did he fight Brook? Shouldn't a guy like that, a champion, being searching out tough challenges. Has GGG ever really gone into a fight where we didn't already know he was 2 levels above his opponent?

    Has Brook and Ward ever punched you to know that?

    The best part is they plan to bring him back in late November. An active entertaining fighter who goes for stoppages, bringing different tactics and assaults into every fight. I cannot wait to see how he gets exposed again this next time around. LOL

    Would you suggest any MW that would be 2 levels above GGG that he should fight?

    if the fight were to go on today i would have ggg 65-35 i want to see how canelo looks tonight, if he is still improving his skill set and conditioning, depending on how he looks and after seeing the major holes in ggg's defense and how he looked at the weigh in, i would say 1 year from now its a 50-50 fight.

    I never said Brook was winning, he only won round 2. And Despite Golovkin winning rounds 1 & 3, he looked poor doing. It's possible to look bad and still win, you know that right? Brook was able to time and counter Golovkin a lot, just didn't have the firepower or size to hang with him. Fact is, Golovkin attempted to box early, abandoned that strategy, and rightfully went for the KO.

    GGG will always get hit by an accurate puncher as his lack of head movement will see that happen.

    That's just the way it is but every fighter has flaws. He didn't want to get hit from Brook but Kell is a very good fighter.

    This is boxing and you will get hit. That's just the name of the game.

    People shouldn't look to much into it. GGG fans shouldn't try and defend it by saying GGG didn't care and went in there ready to take punches. Kell brook is very very good.
