It's on. Can Macklin beat Golovkin? http://www1.skysports.com/boxing/ne...ennady-Golovkin-in-June-it-has-been-confirmed
Doubt it dude. Gaybox Golovkin is a beast. An unproven beast, but he has a beast pedigree so expect a KO.
I tend to agree :34: Golokin looks a monster in there. Macklins beard could get him into serious trouble in this fight
I expect Macklin will give a game effort, but I'd be shocked if he goes 8 rounds here... I think he's getting walked down and beat up
This dude can punch. It's going to take a really good defensive fighter to beat this kid. I think Macklin gets stopped.
Still NOT Sold on Golovkin...He's Fighting the PERFECT Guys to Make him Look Good, Thus Faaaar....REED's Said it Before, but he Sees Flashes of David Lemieux in Golovkin... REED:hammert:
don't see it bro. Always said that Lemieux was more flash than substance, but I think Golovkin is for real. His technique is a million time better, and he has range and world class power (lemieux has power against clown, but it's not all that agains world class opposition). I expect him to trash macklin.
He's already proven to be better than Lemieux. GGG wouldn't lose to Joakin Alcine. In any case, even if he is to be "exposed", Macklin wouldn't be the one to do it. Macklin's made in Heaven for Golovkin. It'll be a good action fight, but Macklin gets beaten like a drum.
Perhaps, but Golovkin has YET to Face Anybody on the Level of Marco Antonio Rubio, as Well... REED:hammert:
Here's the Thing... REED's ALREADY Read Articles Suggesting Golovkin is a 50-50 Fight w/the Likes of Andre Ward @ 168...That's BULLSHIT...STRONG, HARD Hitting Fighter for Sure, but there's ALOT Left to Be Seen, Before Annointing him... Lemieux was ALREADY Being Fitted for a Crown, when Rubio UPSET him... REED:hammert:
Proksa was better than Rubio, though admittedly he was stylistically suitable for GGG (and Polish and thus deemed to lose)
There's only a VERY few minority of people who give GGG anytype of shot with Ward. It's kinda like this generations version of RJ-DM. People want to believe GGG could beat Ward, but deep down they know it ain't happening. So no sense in mentioning Ward-GGG as proof Golovkin is overrated. It's NOT crazy however to believe that GGG could beat Martinez.
Gaybox is leagues above Lemieux. Lemieux is literally a clubfighter in comparison. Just because Gaybox isn't as good as Ward doesn't mean he should be compared to a fucking bum like Lemieux ::
Ishida is a tough awkward fighter, the way he handled him was impressive. GGG might have too much power for Martinez, he ain't beating Ward though.
In NO Particular Order: Sperm, Lee, Vera, Rubio, Quillin...Hell, Put him in w/Sam Soliman & Let's See what Happens...If he Insists on Fighting Jr. Middles, How Bout Spinks, Demetrius Hopkins, Delvin Rodriguez or Carlos Molina???...Are we CERTAIN he even Beats Chavez Jr???...REED Thinks Sergio Martinez SCHOOLS him, ala, Rigondeaux-Donaire... Thus Faaaaaaar, Golovkin has Been SHOWCASED, as Opposed to Being Matched w/even ONE Guy that had a CHANCE of Beating/Frustrating him... REED:hammert:
Of those guys u listed I'd rate macklin as a better foe than all except perhaps quillin. U also have to ask which of them would be willing to accept a fight with golovkin.
