Who's more skilled Beterbiev or Golovkin?

Bruh

 

Delete. Golovkin by miles.

 

Golovkin clearly, Golovkin is also the better counterpuncher, better footwork and balance but Beterbiev has more power and better infight skills

 

GGG.

 

Beterbiev is more defensively responsible. Beterbiev is no defensive wizard, but you dont see him getting hit as much as you would expect from so called crude brawler.

 

Golovkin is a level above Beterbiev but Beterbiev has the style to hurt Golovkin.

 

GGG Has more ring general ship than Artur, he can change the game plan on the fly ,then get back to it.
I would say determination & grit is level...to very able fighters, no gimmicks needed...

 

Is he? GGG is very good defensively, much better than Beterbiev.
Golovkin sometimes goes head hunting against lesser opponents but as we saw in both Canelo fights GGG's defense is very subtle and impressive

 

Golovkin got the better chin, too.

 

Golovkin, But Beterbiev has better power.

 

Who calls Beterbiev a crude brawler? Only total morons would call him that.

 

Golovkin, any day, twice on sunday.

 

Golovkin, it's fairly obvious.

GGG can do it all - box off the front or backfoot, box technically or slug as needed. People criticize his defence but his defence is actually quite good and often quite subtle. Look at slow motion replays of Golovkin and punches that looked like they were landing are often slipped or picked off on gloves or elbows. He becomes exponentially better the more that you watch of him.

Now I'm not calling Beterbiev a crude brawler by any means. He sometimes looks it but a closer look reveals that he's got a method to his madness. He actually mostly throws arm punches, and it's insane how much power the Beast is able to generate with punches that are not the optimum technique for punching with power. He's able to launch trip-hammer blows endlessly without losing his balance, or tiring,which in itself is something very rare in boxing. Artur likewise has an educated attack, mixing up body and head shots beautifully. He's really like a jackhammer tearing holes into his opponents until they crumble. He does what he does very well. All respect to him.

But for all-round versatility, it's got to be Golovkin.

 

GGG
Still the only fighter to take Canelo into a real challenge for 24 brutal rounds
