Who would win this slug festival between these two face first brawlers with all offensive arsenal and very little of defence. I can even see both going down here.
Golovkin has a lot better defense than Duddy and is a lot more skilled he simply chooses to concentrate on attack as its how he likes to fight and is entertaining same way a soccer team that heavily favours attack might be vunerable in defense, it doesn't mean there bad at defending its just not there focus
Duddy is too tough to not get absolutely murdered here. It would have been the end of his career, instantly.
Why don't you watch Golovkin vs. Dirrell in their Olympic fight. It was very even, but it gives you an idea of how Golovkin can avoid getting hit against a very mobile, tall, quick, and skilled boxer. Q: If Golovkin has poor defense, why are Ward and Mayweather taking hits at a higher percentage? A: Because Golovkin is very hard to hit with combos or hooks, he parries, hides behind his shoulder, counters, and moves out of the pocket.
Um, why are we talking about Golovkin avoiding getting hit against a very mobile, tall, quick, and skilled boxer? AFAIK we're talking about John Duddy here...
Duddy would have been taken out pretty quickly before mid rounds. No matter what Duddy game fighter who certainly IMO very,very badly managed.
It seems that in case of GGG combubox is counting shots that are blocked by shoulders or when he moves away from shots (opponent gloves touch him but are not damaging him at all). GGG has great defence. GGG vs. Duddy would be over in 2 rounds tops. Duddy had no power anyway so his chances to hurt him were nonexistent. He couldn´t even stop Yori Boy. Yori Boy vs. GGG, that would have been something.
