looked terrible pre-fight and looked vulnerable against a blown up welter, are we seeing the downfall of triple g's aura of invincibility? can he no longer make 160 comfortably? has his defense caused cracks in his chin and will 1 year of aging make him extremely vulnerable for an upset loss to canelo? will canelo have a similar cut to brook and come in looking healthy while ggg looks like the walking dead? imo all signs are looking like a canelo upset victory sept 2017.
I believe this is what ODLH and co. are looking for when it comes to GGG. They also thought the same about Mayweather and it got Canelo embarrassed, so better they just finish out the year fighting Smith and just fight GGG May of 2017. BJS is rubbing his hands together at the thought of the bidding war for that WBO 160 belt. $$$$$
Here are some FACTS GGG flew in to UK on Sunday, not even a full week before the fight. I've been to Europe many times and the jetlag from LA is brutal. Throw on cutting weight, the publicity, the press conferences, the stress of a huge fight with the pressure to perform, and that's enough to mess with anybody. And this is what makes GGG great. A road warrior fighting in his opponents backyard. How many times have Floyd or Ward done that?
did u see the 30 day weigh-in and the 7 day weigh-in ? if not, then I understand why u made this thread
I doubt it, reckon GGG just looked a bit knackered at the presser and the weight in probably from jet lag
He looks like terrible against skilled fighters. Had it been a MW on Saturday, GGG would have gotten KO.
damn right thats what they hoping for Also fugg that BJS , lucky SOB will get KTFO either way , but hey, they'll take him laughin at the bank...on the ambulance I hope drive ins at banks can fit that ride ))
This. While I think Golovkin always thought he would win too, I think he'd gathered at some point in the build up that Brook was better than he thought when he signed up, along with the fact Brook wasn't like most of his other opponents who knew they had little chance.
Get a grip. Flying to England to beat up on a guy that has done nothing in his own weight class is not a ****ing accomplishment because you like the guy. That is the only time he jumped on a plane to go overseas since he left Germany (heil). Does not make him a world beater like Ward or Mayweather because he beats up on smaller men. Will he ever drive up to Oakland for Ward? Does he have the fortitude for that. Or will he stick to battering the worst of England for your amusement? Maybe he should fight Quigg next.
if you really take a look at ggg's history, he really was the same ggg weve always seen. at the 30 day weigh in, he was 3-4 days of drying out before being at weight. the only thing that stood out for me, was that immediately after getting off the scales, he disappeared from camera while everyone waited for him to get to the photo ops. if he dried out to much, they were probably filling him up with electrolytes and vitamins. the quicker you get his system healing, the further along you will be at fight time.
This is incredibly ignorant. Now, I'm all for calling out the Brook fight as the BS that it was but you can't say Golovkin is not willing to travel and you can't say he's German, honourary or otherwise. He's fought all over. Have a look.
