GGG v Curtis Stevens

[BigJuicyHog]

Damn Golovkin's defense completely went down at the end of that round.

Stevens was putting him to sleep with that crab defense.

[Tinnie]

Well, Golovkin has a effing chin. That's for sure.

[Evander]

3-1 GGG

I think Stevens might have edged that round, he hit GGG with more than a few shots, didn't hurt him but they're point scorers alright.

[Lackeos]

Stevens rung Golovkin's bell a few times near the end of round 4. Evidence that this fight might be interesting after all.
Round 4: 10-9 Stevens

[whysomad]

GGG is just carrying this guy to get in some rounds. Would have finished by now if he really wanted to.

[Evander]

4-1 GGG

Stevens on the back foot, GGG looking for openings but not breaking through.

[Lackeos]

Round 5: Very close 10-9 Stevens
Mostly uneventful. The higher volume of pitty pat punches landed by Golovkin, a few more effective blows landed by Stevens.

That's not true. He's very wary of the left hook counter.

[Lackeos]

Round 6: Clear 10-9 Golovkin. Stevens got off to an early lead, landing effective blows similar to the past two rounds. Golovkin went on a lengthy rally of landing quite a lot of hard blows and pulled way ahead. Stevens stopped opening-up under all of that pressure.

[lefty]

Well Stevens has done a lot better than a lot on this forum were saying he was going to.

[Evander]

5-1 GGG

GGG getting through now but he looked slightly ragged toward the end of the round.

[whysomad]

LOL round 5 for stevens,...what fight ya watching there?

[Lackeos]

Round 7: Clear 10-9 Golovkin
Both fighters trade effective blows early. Stevens begins piling-up a number of mediocre punches and then they trade numerous big punches near the end of the second minute. Golovkin begins opening-up a lead in the final minute.

[Baby Face Finster]

Triple G slowly starting to break Stevens down.

[Evander]

6-1 GGG

GGG spent most of the round either pinning Stevens in the corner or backing him up, Stevens is tough got to hand it to him.

[BigJuicyHog]

This reminds me of a slightly better version of Vitali vs Johnson. One dude doing all the work, the other sitting on defense.

[lefty]

This is the most cautious ive ever seen Golovkin box which shows that he respects Steven's power.

[giacomino]

Stevens did absolutely nothing to earn this shot and he's lasted a lot longer than I thought he would. Good that he gave GGG some rounds

[dan h]

Quality stoppage

[whysomad]

LOL I told you GGG was just getting in rounds.

[Evander]

7-1 GGG That's a 10/ 8 round.

Fight stopped

GGG wins

[Baby Face Finster]

The beating in that round was brutal. Good stoppage.

[lefty]

Well Stevens has done a lot better than a lot on this forum were saying he was going to.

Yeah. But he's still losing one sidedly.

Yeah but people were saying he was gonna get destroyed in a couple of rounds. That he was a bum and he didnt deserve being in there. Well he looked more dangerous than Macklin or Rosado ever did.

[whysomad]

Did you actually think stevens had a chance? He hit GGG with his best shots and GGG just walked through them.

[lefty]

LOL I told you GGG was just getting in rounds.

How though? He was still on his feet.
