Is that Andre Ward on colour commentary ? Rosado's movement looks great but Golovkin's power every time he touches Rosado is apparent

Golovkin is just too centered and tight...just better

Rosado's head movement is falling apart now and his peekaboo defense isn't nearly as effective. Golovkin's pressure and size advantage is just too overwhelming for him

Tim Bradley got the shit beat out of him bad. Provodnoikov is a beast. What a fight.

Haven't been following boxing much lately. Poor Bradley. That Pacquiao decision made him a bad guy and he doesn't deserve that.

Bradley won this fight by decision but got hurt badly 4 rounds. He outpointed his opponent but he got the fuck beat out of him and it was a bad decision considering he was held up by the ropes a couple times. That was the kind of fight that shortens careers.

CompuBox decided this one. Bradley should have finished it after opening provodnoikov's eye but he had nothing behind his punches from round 4 on. Fun fight though.

Provodnikov should have been awarded a knock down in the 1st which the ref ruled a slip.

Two of the scores were 114-113 which had the knockdown been scored, would've given Provodnikov a one point victory.

I agree with Tors on Bradley's bad rep - it's totaly unfair as he was not a big puncher at 140 and at 147 less so and he has to rely on outboxing most of his opponents - But I also scored his previous bout for Manny.

At any rate - It was a helluva fight!

I won't hate it when those two go away. they outclass everyone so much that it has killed any excitement surrounding heavyweight goings-on. that division is so fucking boring. anyone see the helenius fight past weekend? dull shit

It doesn't really matter if you don't like their styles or lack of opponents in their league. They sent someone who had no knowledge or appreciation of boxing to interview the heavyweight champion and attempt to talk down to him, which actually backfired.
