    Well, it's like this.



    I am going to more or less expect Golota to lose this one. Come on guys, he's 40 years old and is fighting a younger, hungrier, hard punching kat who's style is all wrong for Golota. If he loses and retires, so what! He gave us many years of terrific entertainment. Being 40 years old, fighting with a bad left arm and over a decade removed from his physical prime is not a bad excuse for losing a boxing match. And who knows, HE MAY ACTUALLY WIN.

    This attitude is the only way I will be able to enjoy watching this fight, instead of the usual pre-Golota fight nerousness. Golota is the old underdog who is supposed to lose but just may end up beating the **** out of Mollo instead.


    Win or lose, GO GOLOTA!:bbb

    The Tyson stare down was classic. Golota looked like Stallone in Cobra staring down a little school yard bully. Most Golotaholics were hyped after seeing that pic. It goes to show you that stare downs and conference judgments of who looks meaner are pretty much meaningless because they do not predict the outcome.

    Its an illusion. Dress shirts tucked at the waist make everyone look puffier, especially at the shoulders and chest. On the other hand, Golota's old school addidas tracksuit usually gives a trimmer appearance. In reality Golota is the bigger, more powerfully built man here.

    damn....that's a opinion of one of the reporters that apperently was in the gym and has witnessed golota training few day before the fight...

    "It's difficult and unwise to infer too much from a public workout, or indeed any workout. And Golota is an inherently shy guy, who appeared as if he might be feeling a little awkward at going through his paces in front of the cameras like a zoo animal. But he looked just a tad slow and less than polished. His right hands looked fine, but he didn't appear to have much of a jab at all. His movements just weren't that smooth. But, like I said, it was a token effort for the sake of us media leeches, so who knows?"


    So that video of slow Golota and tired Golota was his normal training. Damn now I am twice as nervous. I think the age thing is showing more and more but not so long ago he was in excelent form right before ruiz fight. There is his trainig before the fight with Ruiz and he was so fast and sharp. take a look

    Mollo looks to be either wearing shoes with some thick soles, or he's taller than I thought. I thought he was only something like 6 foot.

    What's the source of this opinion? Unless you have one, this could have as well come from someone on Mollo's payrol. In the past, Mollo has proven to engage in a lot of *****-like rumours to get Golota's attention.

    Quit loosing faith Golota faithful!!!! Go back and watch the mcbride fight rounds 2-6 he looked GREAT!!! Golota is not going to get rushed he is REALLY REALLY expecting it. Think about it....the strat really works when no one expects it. No one expected Brewster to win let alone KO him in one. This time around EVERYONE and their mother thinks mollo will bum rush golota and KO him early. We as Golota holics know using history on our side that this is not going to happen that way, it would be too easy to predict. GOLOTA KO in 8!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lets go people, 3 days left i wanna see the support!!!

    The last video I saw of Golota, he looked very slow and sluggish to me. My hope is, the video was shot in the early stages of training. But at 40 years old, we must consider the possiblity that he is all washed up.

    Win or lose, GO GOLOTA

    Eh, don't worry about it . If Golota is unable to get thru a guy Touch Of **** knocked out, it was time for him to hang them up anyway.

    If you go into this fight expecting a 40 year old Golota to lose, it won't be as heart breaking if he does, and will be that much sweeter if he actually wins.

    GO GOLOTA

    Yes Hoax but listen...we all saw him fight mcbride and that video couldnt be taken more than a month or 2 after that fight. So assuming we believe golota had a good showing vs mcbride i think this video has little validity in showing his actual speed. I do agree the video looked bad but realistically he didnt age years within that month or 2. Dont let a video mislead all the GOLOTAHOLICS!!! GO GOLOTA!!

    Very true. Golota didn't look sluggish at all vs McMuffin (with exception of round 1). Wasn't exactly the '96 version but he still looked pretty good. How much could Golota have aged within a few months? Hopefully turning 40 didn't mess with Golota's mind set.

    GO GOLOTA
