Robinson was Levine's 2nd loss in a row... 4 fights later Artie had lost 4 of his last 6 fights... His KO ratio was only 51%.. Compared to compared to a 6-footer like Daniel Jacobs who has a KO ratio of 88%... Gennady Golovkin with a KO ratio of 92%... and Julian Jackson who had a KO ratio of 80%... I wasn't at all impressed with Levine's punching power -- but he did put Robinson down for a 9-count and a lot of referees today would have stopped it.
Robinson was decked hard in his next fight as well -- and he was decked several times... Golovkin has never been down, has never lost, and hits a lot harder.
