i think Golovkin didn’t knock Stevens out in the early rounds because he bet on himself he would have won after the midpoint of the fight….this is the only reason!
I’m a big fan of GGG, but I saw some defensive deficiencies such as awkward looking backstepping to avoid punches, and not enough head movement. Other than that, GGG has stupendous power, and made a very tough Stevens look like a bullied schoolyard pre-teen.
backstepping is part of defense in boxing.
ggg good not question about that but curtis showed heart he did better than we all expected
