I believe 2 out of 3 favored Golovkin almost 2 years ago. So it's probably about 80% now. Gloveking KO around 7
Nah I doubt it Kelly was a tough SOB. If it was a stoppage it would be due to a cut not getting koed.
Pavlik was a tough SOB and at this point the more proven champion so it would have lasted the full 12. However I think Golovkin has the goods and visually looks much more skilled to me, so Golovkin in a 8-4 type of victory.
Tough fight to call. Could go either way. Right now I favor Pavlik by a little but I need to see more of GGG against better competition.
Golovkins hasnt showed me enough at this point to pick him over a prime pavlik. Would need to see how he handles a big powerful fighter who will come at him and has a good chin.
Pavlik was BIG…tall, long, good jab and thudding power. Prime pav who beat Taylor and miranda was such a *****ing beast! This would be a hard hitting and absolutely great fight. Man idk..my gut reaction is prime pavlik but ….but, idk. HE's too big.
I liked Pavlik but I think Golovkin would absolutely destroyed him. Pavlik is too easy to hit clean and he also needs to plant his feet to punch so I think GGG would have an easy time avoiding his big right hand. Pavlik might take the first couple of rounds but I think he would get KO'd by the mid rounds. Taylor isn't a big puncher and had him on ***** Street in the 2nd round of their first fight, I can only imagine what Golovkin would have done to him.
