Whatever you think about the results of the fight, Ward moved up a weightclass and stood up to it's heaviest hands. Sorry haters.
Curtis Stevens hits like a mule and GGG walked through his best, Lemiux hit him flush with a big straight down the pipe right hand and he took it without fuss. GGG has granit whiskers . YOur right about feather fisted Geal though, he got knocked out while connecting with his best at the same time
Indeed, whatever I feel about his career to date, Golovkin has shown his chin. Dominick Guinn is the top chin in boxing. A who's who of HW's and never even down.
You don't go 400 fights without even getting badly buckled and not have a granite chin even gatekeepers can spark you out and when you can not even find one fight out of 400 fights of golovkin going down that tells you all you need to know Kovalev spared GGG for 1 year and half and he said "He has a very hard head"
Many of the top fighters today have been badly hurt and put down by journymen and even some of them been knocked out by gatekeepers all it takes is a well placed shot and inexperience or whatever. But how come you can't find the same for Golovkin I mean he has had 400 fights in total in his career and has never even been badly hurt let alone down.
Kell Brook can take a dig. I know Carson Jones is no world beater but in the first fight v Brook, Kell completely gassed out and was taking very heavy shots clean. Thought it was very impressive how he stayed upright after taking them shots when clearly gassed out. Took Golovkins shots too before the corner pulled him out.
Actually, he did. There was no knockout and one KD. 1. By your standard, everybody that ever got knocked down and/or stunned at any point is "packing glass". Do I have that right?
