I predicted GGG would win via stoppage, so I'm not sure what you're on about. It was a good, competitive fight up until the stoppage, but GGG was wearing Brook down and his corner saved him from a bad knockout.Andrew Kearney wrote:Golovkin dominates and stops Brook in 5 rounds, a somewhat embarrassing TKO loss for Brook and his team in front of his own English fans. Brook deserves credit for taking the fight when others avoided GGG, but it was clear he was outgunned and his trainer saved his career and possibly his life by stopping the beating he was taking in round 5.
Before the fight, there were a number of self proclaimed "boxing experts", and "future predictors" on this site who stated that Brook would win the fight, and would pull the upset over GGG. Where are these guys now and what do they have to say for themselves? Where are all these "winners" and "boxing experts" now when we need them eh?
Jezzamundo, SFW, StrapMeUp I'm reaching out to you "boxing experts" on the forum.
What fight were you watching? He was ahead on points.Andrew Kearney wrote:Golovkin dominates and stops Brook in 5 rounds, a somewhat embarrassing TKO loss for Brook and his team in front of his own English fans.
Brook shouldn't have been ahead on points if he was. He won the 2nd round clearly. 3rd round was close, I scored it for Golovkin. Rounds 1 and 4 were clear Golovkin rounds. If Brook was ahead on any card the only explanation is incompetence.BitPlayer wrote:What fight were you watching?

Perhaps, but it's a cunts trick to crow so loudly that you start threads to do it. This is particularly bad given that GGG was a huge favourite, so well done I guess for backing the more than obvious favourite. I will look out for AK's boxing knowledge in future.gilgamesh wrote:Most people on forums go missing when they're wrong on a bold prediction. People are very thin skinned sometimes I guess.
I'm predicting Carlos Cuadras to pull the upset on Chocolatito tonight, and if I'm wrong, I'll still be right here to talk about the fight anyhow. Wouldn't be the first time I was wrong, won't be the last.
I had it 3-1 GGG as wellAndrew Kearney wrote:HBO's Harold Lederman (American feed) had GGG ahead 3 rounds to 1 at the time of stoppage.
Russian feed also had GGG ahead 3 to 1 at the time of stoppage.
If the judges had Brook ahead, that reflects badly on them and the entire event. Maybe Eddie Hearn's plan was to fix the scorecards?
They sure are, and those who do show their faces usually attempt to twist things around after the event.gilgamesh wrote:Most people on forums go missing when they're wrong on a bold prediction.
Thing is GGG took it out of the judges hands inside 5 rounds. So the scorecards are absolutely irrelevant, regardless of who might have been ahead on the them. About as useful as yesterday's fish and chip wrappers.gilgamesh wrote:I had it 3-1 GGG as wellAndrew Kearney wrote:HBO's Harold Lederman (American feed) had GGG ahead 3 rounds to 1 at the time of stoppage.

Yep, these boxing "experts" like jezzamundo, SFW, and StrapMeUp either try to deny that it happened in the first place, or they twist their words around to make it seem like something other than it was. Or they simply go AWOL after theyve been proven wrong. It's important that we point these phonies and fraud posters out to the other posters so that we know who we're dealing with here.Like a Boss wrote:They sure are, and those who do show their faces usually attempt to twist things around after the event.gilgamesh wrote:Most people on forums go missing when they're wrong on a bold prediction.

Seems like a whole lot of people think 3G carried Brook. I disagree. If not for the eye it was competitive, imo. Brook made 3G miss a lot. He backed him up at times. He countered brilliantly.jujigatame wrote:I didn't say Brook would win but I did say he'd be GGG's best opponent ever, and I believe he was.
If he could have survived it. There probably would've been another one like it in the next round. I'm not sure he would've made it out of the 5th without hitting the canvas without the towel coming in when it did.Tanzio wrote:Seems like a whole lot of people think 3G carried Brook. I disagree.

3G claims that he was not fazed by Brook's shots. But 3G looked winded at points. He put an awful lot of effort into that 5th round onslaught. If Brook could have survived it . . .
Look at the way he came out in the third, he was angry. He's been very composed in his fights before this, Brook hurt him and his angles and distance gave GGG something to think about. I thought it would be a walkover, I'm glad Brook equated himself well, I'm a little disappointed GGG wasn't a little more honest, we all saw what happened. I don't think he expected it from Kell.Tanzio wrote:Seems like a whole lot of people think 3G carried Brook. I disagree. If not for the eye it was competitive, imo. Brook made 3G miss a lot.

The guy did once do a notoriously legendary fake round by round on here, I forget which fight it was, it may have been Froch v Bute.

I remember, I forget the fight too. TML is a cock, everyone knows it. Still, crowing big when picking the winner of a very obvious to pick fight is shocking, even for this place. No one sensible could make a case for Brook winning this, not even TML.dberry wrote:The guy did once do a notoriously legendary fake round by round on here, I forget which fight it was, it may have been Froch v Bute.
