>>> Only Lomachenko and Golovkin can get away with...

August 2017 and we're still doing the 'Brook is bigger than GGG' thing. Crazy. If he was then he'd have tried to box more like he did against Jacobs as opposed to just walking forward without bothering to do much other than throw. This forum doesn't move on.

 

Great thread. Some serious ownnage was dealt here.

 

Probably true but he's made under 170 for same day weigh ins, and I don't think has ever been higher than 173, he's usually only 170.

 

You call Lomachenko featherfisted yet he has visibly hurt everyone of his opponents and stopped 7/10!

 

JMM was dragged up 2 weight classes. And then Floyd cheated him on the scales.

 

It sure can be argued, given there is no such thing as "natural" weight.

Which we've seen Golovkin do against career middleweights.

That's not a measurement of size, you are talking about durability.

He wasn't just faster, he had a significant weight and reach advantage, which only a fool would fail to acknowledge was factor in the fight.

They were roughly the same size in the ring, GGG stopped him. So you are wrong there.

If Mayweather had a 67" wing span, he would have to drastically alter his style. It would be foolish to think he could dominate the outside with rangey counters if he had no significant reach advantage.

 

Mayweather gets very little credit if any for fighting JMM .

 

Lol I guarantee that Loma cracks harder than that Japanese no name that dropped Rigoblin twice.

 

So he's willing to fight Mickey but fight smaller men the problem is not him, lets put the blame on Bob c'mon give me a break his boss knows Mickey better than any body don't expect this fight any time soon.

 

Loma hasn't given anybody any indication that he won't move up and fight bigger men. What's on Bob's agenda is Bob's business. If Loma wants the fight with Mikey, I am sure he can get it, or the fight with Linares. I just don't think that Loma has any problem with fighting at 135. If he shows me different then I will comment in kind.

 

To be exact, Rigo did call out Loma at 130. So all this bs about Loma picking on smaller men is redundant unless certain dummies want to use it for their agendas

 

You could argue that if they were the same size, Kell would have lesser speed. Or if Golovkin was lighter he'd be more mobile. So all this talk of "what if" scenarios is irrelevant for boxing heads.

 

That's such an ignorant thing to post. Floyd was clearly the bigger fighter and his skills were magnified with the weight advantage.

"Great big man beats a Great small man" was definitely at play here.

 

Lomachenko is the most skilled fighter in the world today and don't sell Golovkin short either, Golovkin is fighting El Pollo with El Pollo's judges, referee, boxing commission, etc. El Pollo has a rematch clause, Golovkin was not allowed a rematch clause....................El Pollo has everything his way, he will cheat like hell, he has Bob Bennett to lie for him and Tony Weeks to stop the fight on a blow to the testicles, so Golovkin needs to wear a steel jock strap and cup with cushion. It is their plan to cheat, they saw SOB get away with it.....................Golovkin knows he has to knock El Pollo out to get a draw.....................

 

Floyd dragged marquez up 2 weight classes and didn't even abide by the weight limitations
