2/21 - HBO - Gennady "GGG" Golovkin vs. Martin Murray (Fight Thread)

[origiNel]

Kinda hard when a lot of the more quality fighters aren't stepping up to fight him.

I remember hearing some shyt that Andre Ward wanted to fight Golovkin, but Ward felt he wasn't that big of a name at the time. Nobody really fights at 160 like that rather than maybe Cotto, but Cotto is okay at 160, but better at 154.

Cotto is gonna have to face him eventually. I believe GGG's last fight was to decide who'd be the #1 contender for Cotto's belt

I don't know if Cotto is ready for that fight yet, and I'm a fan of his.

LMAO at this music after they announced GGG winning, shyt sounded like he fukking conquered an empire or something

I know Cotto ain't ready for it, I'm just saying I remember one of GGG's fights they were saying it was to see who'd face Cotto

If Cotto was in his prime, Cotto would've gave GGG the hands, but unfortunately shyt hasn't been the same since the Margarito incident. If Cotto/GGG were to happen, it has to be sooner than later.

If he ain't ready now then he never will be.

I know. I'll never get the sight of Cotto a bloody pulp out my head. Dude was in bad shape

Murray has good skills. Unfortunately he was outmatched by a guy who can box and who can punch.

Every shot Gennady throws is meant to hurt. None of that bs arm punching, no! Everything looks so crisp. He's also dynamic enough to deftly throw punches around the guard; over, under between, basically whatever is necessary.

Gennady is also in excellent perhaps outstanding shape. To be able to pursue guys for the duration of the fight throwing hard punch after hard punch is a testament to the work he does in training.

I felt really bad for Cotto after that happened and I was hoping he would literally knock Margarito's head off in the 2nd fight.

Coming from a Cotto fan, GGG would beat the living shyt out of Cotto

Murray's a 6'1 Middleweight. Cotto's BARELY 5'8 with good footwork but has trouble with pressure and there's no fukkin way he's evading GGG for 12 rounds.
