    Completely ******ed was looking forward to this fight from when the two of them use to be on the same bills for Sky. I honestly think he could of beat Williams. It's hard being a Cintron fan but i still think he can pick a title up so hopefully here is an up side coming soon :lol:

    I just nicked this from a post I made a while ago:


    Overview:
    A decorated amateur. Won gold at the World Championships in 2003 and silver at the 2004 Olympics at Middleweight for Kazakhstan. Owns wins in his amateur career over Lucian Bute, Andre Dirrell, Andy Lee, Matt Korobov and Yordanis Despaigne.

    Turned pro in 2006 and hasn't had a hiccup, although his opposition hasn't been stellar (but who's is?). I'd say his best win is over Canadian Ian Gardner, who took Abraham the distance and was stopped late by Chad Dawson. Golvokin won a UD over 8.

    Not your typical Euro fighter imo. He uses good head movement and reflexes to slip punches and make opponents miss. In fact he rarely seems to be hit clean. He's technically sound as you would expect of a an amateur of his calibre, with decent hand speed and power. Seems to pick his punches well, working the head and body with accurate punches.

    Last fight:
    KOed undefeated Russian Mikail Makarov in 2. Makarov had a padded record and Golovkin had no problems getting rid of him.

    Who you want him to fight next:
    Well he is scheduled for an interim WBA Middleweight title bout against Colombian Milton Nunez. Nunez' record is a joke to say the least, filled with wins over guys making their debuts or boxers with 0 wins. Has only faced 3 fighters with winning records and one of them knocked him out in a round. However after that he should be truly on the world stage and so a fight against any top Middleweight figher will suffice. Being interim champ at that point, a bout with Felix Sturm should hopefully occur.

    Potential:
    World Class. Will pick up a belt at the very least.

    I suppose I should update that a bit. He blew out that Colombian fella in 1 and is now Interim WBA champ. I've heard mumblings here and there on the net that he is meant to facing fellow prospect Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam next.

    The WBA has mandated Golovkin vs Njikam (who made my list) that has the makings of a cracking fight between prospects

    Jeff had the lowest boxing IQ in recent memory. He was ham n eggs even before Joe C Wales took his soul.

    Oh and to further illustrate my point on just how dumb and one dimensional this plodder was, let's look at his nickname. Now if I was a prize fighter and I had one weapon in my arsenal, why would I announce to the WORLD that it's also my nickname?????

    Sh*t man, you don't have to be Bernard Hopkins or Lights Out Toney on defense to watch out for a "LEFT HOOK" when the man calls himself that. I just didn't get it bro. LOL!
