Boxing Prediction: Sergey Kovalev vs Ismayl Sillakh: 2013-11-30, Canada

   Very hard hitting undefeated 30 years old Sergey"Krusher" Kovalev(22-0-1(20 KO) rated number 1 in Russia and number 3 in the world, will face only once defeated 28 years old Ismayl Sillakh(21-1-0( 17 KO) rated number 3 in Ukraine and number 31 in the world on this Saturday, November 30 in Colisee de Quebec, Canada. This will be the title defense fight for Kovalevs WBO light heavyweight title. It will be first title defense for him.
 

   Kovalev comes to this fight after impressive win over unbeaten at that time Nathan Cleverly (26-0) by TKO round 4 on August this year. He torn the champion apart in 4 rounds and Cleverly decided to move to another weight division. Before that he won against Cornelius White(21-1) by TKO round 3 on June this year.

   Ismayl Sillakh comes to this fight after his TKO round 6 win against  Kontstantin Piternov(13-3) on August this year. In fact he didn't knocked out Piternov, Piternov just didn't want to continue after taking a one side beating for 6 rounds. Before Piternov he knocked out "no name" Alvorado Enriquez(12-11-2) by KO round 1 on June this year.

  Both fighters are very good. It will be clasical fight between puncher and boxer. Kovalev is a big puncher who also has good boxing skills and Sillakh is a great boxer with nice power.  This fight will be epic as long as it lasts...

Boxing Prediction: Adonis Stevenson vs Tony Bellew: 2013-11-30, Canada

   36 years old southpaw Adonis"Superman" Stevenson (22-1-0(19 KO) rated number 1 in Canada and number 2 in the world will  face 30 years old Tony "Bomber" Bellew (20-1-1(12 KO) rated number 1 in the UK and number 4 in the world on this Saturday, November 30, in Colisee de Quebec, Canada. This will be the fight for the WBC light heavyweight title.  It will be the second title defense for Stevenson.
 

   Adonis Stevenson comes to this fight after impressive one sided victory by TKO round 7 against Tavoris Cloud(24-1-0) on September this year. Before that he stopped Chad Dawson(31-2) by KO round 1. It will be his fourth fight this year. So I can say that he is very active. He finished his last 9 fights by KO, TKO. 3 of then in the first round.

   Tony Bellew comes to this fight after his rematch against Isaac Chilemba(20-1-2) on May this year. He won that dirty fight by unanimous decision. Before that he had a draw against same Isaac Chilemba(20-1-1) on March this year.

   Tony Bellew believes he has a perfect plan to win against hard hitting Stevenson using his height advantage. I believe he plans to fight the Klitchko fight, using his jab and clinch. We will see it soon.....

Post fight Analysis: Carl Froch vs George Groves: Froch by TKO round 9;

    
   Carl "The Cobra" Froch  stopped George Groves by very controversial TKO round 9. I have never seen a referee stopping the title fight for the fighter who is winning the fight on all three(even if two were corrupted against him) judges score cards, when he is still punching and he is moving from the ropes. George Groves had to fight 4 people that night at the same time. He had to fight against ring referee, Carl Froch  and two judges scoring from out of nose. I mean at the moment of stoppage only one judge had 78-73 for Groves. Other two had it only 76-75 for Groves at that is including a knockout in first round, so practically they saw an even fight... 
   
   And that is a nonsense. Well I saw this fight 78-73 for Groves and I think I am even kind for Froch. Well it is becoming normal to score insane for the Eddie Hearns fighters in England, we all remember that controversial draw few months ago when again Eddie Hearns fighter Burns was gifted a draw against Beltran. I believe it is becoming normal to see insane score cards when there is Eddie Hearns involved....

Post Fight Analysis: Manny Pacquiao vs Brandon Rios: Pacquiao by UD.

  Well there was no miracle on last the Saturday in Makao, China. Manny "Pack Man" Paquiao outboxed and gave a boxing lesson  for much bigger Brandon Rios. Manny won by unanimous decision 119-109, 120-108, 118-110. It was a fight of two completely different level fighters, Manny moved on the ring a lot and he was hitting, hitting and hitting Rios with one-twos, combinations and even two fast left hands in a row. Rios was just too slow and he was unable to catch Manny in the middle of the ring or to counter. He had only few chances when he put Manny on the ropes and worked on his body and head with his big shots, but those furies happened so rare that they had almost no effect on "Pac Man".
 

   Many people thought that maybe after that brutal knockout loss against Marquez Manny is unable to take a big shot and Rios definitely has a power in his hands. But it was clear that one year pause from the big boxing that Manny took helped him to recover and he had no problems when Rios landed his big punches to the head. Manny took them very well and he recovered very fast.

   It was one sided fight from the first second till the final bell. I was impressed with the stamina Pacquiao has and he still has his speed and power. He was unable to knock much bigger Rios out as I predicted but he was able to dominate and connect his shots for all 36 minutes...

Boxing Prediction: Carl Froch vs George Groves: 2013-11-23, UK

   
   36 years old Carl"The Cobra" Froch (31-2-0(22 KO) rated number 1 in the UK and number 2 in the world will face unbeaten young lion 25 years old George"Saint George" Groves (19-0-0(15 KO) rated number 2 in the UK and number 6 in the world on this Saturday, November 23 in Phones 4U Arena,Manchester, UK. This fight will be the title defense for Froch WBA Super World super middleweight title and IBF super middleweight title. 
 

   Carl Froch comes to this fight after his win by unanimous decision in a rematch against Mikkel Kessler(46-2) on May this year. Before that he knocked out Yusaf Mack(31-4-2) on round 3 on November last year.

   George Groves comes to this fight after TKO round 5 victory over Noe Gonzalez Alcoba(30-2) on May this year. Before that he won against "no name" Baker Barakat(37-13-4) on March this year.

   In Britain it looks like a young lion tries to take titles from an old lion. Well on this Saturday we will see if the young lion is strong enough to produce un upset. Carl Froch is 1/4 favorite in this one.

BOXING PREDICTION FOR THE FIGHT

 

   Well it's time for my boxing prediction for this match. Lets start from the legend. Carl "The Cobra" Froch is still fast enough, he has  big power in his hands. He doesn't have that one punch knockout power, but he likes to land combinations and he has enough power in his fists to knock out his opponent with those combinations.  He has very good stamina, and he has legendary chin. It looks like his chin is build of pure titan. He can take a punch and he recovers very fast. He is very good on ring generalship. He likes to go forward and pressure his opponents to the ropes where he lands his big combinations.

    During his long boxing career he fought with the top fighters. He won against Mikkel Kesller, Lucian Bute, Arthur Abraham, Andre Dirrell and Jean Pascal. He lost against Andre Ward...

Boxing Prediction: Manny Pacquiao vs Brandon Rios: 2013-11-24, China

   34 years old one of the best boxers in the world Manny "Pac Man" Pacquiao(54-5-2(38 KO) rated number 1 in Philippines and number 4 in the world will face only once defeated 27 years old Brandon"Bam Bam" Rios (31-1-1(23 KO) rated number 3 in the USA and number 5 in the world on this Sunday, November 24 in Cotai Arena,Macao, China for the vacant WBO International welterweight title. 
 

   Both boxers comes to this fight after a losses. And both of them want to make a big statement on Sunday. Pac Man wants to show that he is still capable to win in the high level, and for Rios it is the fight of his life against boxing legend.

    Manny comes to this fight after 2 losses in a row on 2012. He was brutally knocked out by Juan Manuel Marquez(54-6-1) on the last second of  the round 6 on the end of 2012 in there 4th fight. By the way Manny was in control of the fight at that time and was going for a kill against hurt Marquez when he was caught by a counter punch that knocked him out completely. Before that he lost against Timothy Bradley(28-0) by split decision on June 2012 in the fight that can be called the robbery of the year.

   Brandon Rios comes to this fight after his first loss by unanimous decision in a rematch  against  Mike Alvorado(31-1-0) on the end of March this year, before that he won against same Mike Alvorado by TKO round 7 on October 2012.

    Manny Pacquiao was fighting top guys in his last fights and now he faces softer opposition to get his confidence back after 2 losses in a row. In this fight we will see if he is till same Pack Man and how he recovered from that brutal knockout loss...

Post fight analysis: Andre Ward vs Edwin Rodriguez: Ward by UD.

   Still undefeated WBA Super World super middleweight champion Andre"SOG" Ward (27-0-0(14 KO) destroyed his former unbeaten opponent Edwin Rodriguez by unanimous decision 118-106, 117-107; 116-108 in one sided fight on last Saturday in Citizens Business Bank Arena, California, USA.  Both of fighter were deducted two points in the 4th round for unsportsmanlike behaviour. It was Ward who hit Rodriguez after referee ordered "break" for holding and pushing his head, and Rodriguez jumped on Ward and even hit the ring referee who needed some time to get back after that punch. In that fight Andre Ward showed that he is still one of the best in the world and that he is in the perfect form. I predicted one sided fight with Ward knocking Rodriguez out in the round 10, but it looks like Rodriguez is more a light heavyweight then a super middleweight and even after very big shots that Ward connected on the round 10 Rodriguez was still able to continue.
 

   Rodriguez started very fast, as all punchers he has enough gas only for three rounds so he went straight forward with his punches, but Ward clinched him. First round was full of clinches and inside fight while clinched. Ward was still able to hit Rodriguez with his powerful left jab on his way in. Ward is a natural born southpaw but he fights in the orthodox stance, so his power hand is always in front and he lands his jab and left hook with his power hand. Edwin Rodriguez was at least little bit competitive in 3 first rounds. It was more wrestling then boxing but when they were separated Ward was able to land his power jab and his combinations while Rodriguez was only sometimes landing his hooks to the body...

Post fight analysis: David Tua vs Alexander Ustinov: Ustinov by UD

   Belarussian Alexander Ustinov(29-1-0(21 KO) won unimpressive victory against boxing legend from New Zealand David Tua by Unanimous decision. Judges scored 108-120, 110-119,110-119 for Ustinov.  He also captures vacant WBA Pan African heavyweight title.This was very inactive fight, with Ustinov always staying in super defensive stance and jumping like a big rabbit from Tua every time he tried to come closer. In fact Ustinov changed his style on this fight. He dropped a lot of weight and came in a very good shape. I mean he was much bigger than Tua, but looked much lighter then before. Tua also was in perfect shape just his boxing plan for this fight was terrible. Maybe he had a good plan for a slow and heavy Ustinov, but Ustinov came completely different fighter then in his fight against Pulev, so the plan didn't succeed.
 

   I mean from the first minute Tua instead of going forward decided to stay outside and was making 2-3 furies in every round. He was looking for that one punch knockout. Ustinov from the beginning moved forward and used his jab and tried to use a big right hand , but Tua has a better defense and he was able to avoid almost all of those slow left hands. Tua caught Ustinov few times with his left hook, and I believe Ustinov was a little afraid of that power so from round 4 he changed tactics and started to fight as Wladimir Klitchko. He was moving backwards and just throwing his jab and right hand  from time to time, every time Tua tried to come closer Ustinov just jumped backwards as far as he can.

   Tua was just too little to connect his left hook to the head and he missed those big punches almost every time. From round 4 Tua started to go to the body but he was connecting 2 punches per round so he was outboxed by much bigger Ustinov who was able to connect more jabs and some power punches in every round...

Boxing Prediction: Tomasz Adamek vs Vyacheslav Glazkov: 2013-11-16, USA

    36 years old Tomasz "Goral" Adamek (49-2-0(29 KO) rated number 1 in Poland and number 3 in the world will face unbeaten Vyacheslav "The Czar" Glazkov (15-0-1(11 KO) from Ukraine, rated number 2 in Ukraine and number 13 in the world on this Saturday, November 16 in Turning Stone Resort, USA. This will be 12 rounds bout with no title at stake. It will be a good test for Adamek as he believes that by beating unbeaten Glazkov he can come closer to the world title fight against Wladimir Klitchko.

   Adamek comes to this fight after his win by  Unanimous decision against Dominick Giun(34-9-1) on August this year. This was a one sided fight as Dominick almost stopped throwing from round 3. Before that he won by the split decision against Steve Cunningham(25-4) on the end of 2012.

   Vyacheslav Glazkov comes to this fight after an impressive TKO round 2 victory over "human punching bag" Byron Polley(25-15-1) who looked completely out of shape on August this year. Before that he was lucky with a draw against at that time unbeaten Malik Scott(35-0) on February this year. By the way in his next fight Malik Scitt was stopped by controversial TKO round 6 against Dereck Chisora. In fact Glazkov clearly lost the fight against Scott but because of his promoters influence on that fight he was gifted with a draw.

   This will be an interesting fight to watch. Firstly it is interesting how will Adamek deal with a young  pure puncher with a big power like Glazkov also it is interesting how will Glazkov compete with a guy from top 15 as he was usually fighting a guys two levels below. It will be a huge step up in opposition for Glazkov.

   Denis Glazkov was very carefully matched for all his career. I believe they were thinking about the title shot against one of the Klitchkos, but after his loss/draw against Malik Scott it is clear that he is still in the lower class. This fight against Tomasz Adamek is his last chance to have a big future. If he loses against Adamek he will not have a chance to fight for a title at least for 4 years. And even after those 4 years he will have to beat at least 3 or 4 top 15 guys to get this title shot....

Boxing Prediction: David Tua vs Alexander Ustinov: 2013-11-16, New Zealand

   One of the boxing legends, one of the hardest left hooks holder,  40 years old David "Tuaman" Tua (52-4-2(43 KO) from New Zealand will try to come back to the top heavyweight boxing scene by facing very big and strong 36 years old Belarusian Alexander Ustinov (28-1-0(21 KO) rated number 1 in Belarus and number 32 in the world on this Saturday night, November 16 in Claudelands Arena, Hamilton, New Zeland. This will be the fight for the vacant WBA Pan African heavyweight title.
 

   Tua hasn't fought anyone for more then two years. His last opponent was Monte Barett(34-9-2) on August 2011. Tua lost that fight by unanimous decision, but he was still able to send Barett on the canvas in the round 12. Before that Tua won against "no name" Demetrice King(15-19) by unanimous decision on March 2011. Tua had very big power in his prime but it looks like he has lost it, because he can not knock out such low level boxers anymore.

   Alexander Ustinov comes to this fight after the win by unanimous decision against "no name" Ivica Perkovic (19-19) on April this year. Before that he was knocked out in round 11 by light hitting but fast Kubrat Pulev(16-0-0) on September 2012 in one sided fight.

   I believe this will be a good fight. Ustinov is a good opponent for Tua as he is not fast and don't moves too much, and David Tua is also a perfect opponent for Ustinov for the same reasons.

   I was a big fan of David Tua when he was on his prime. Former David Tua would have no problems with Ustinov. His left hook was so fast and powerful that even granite chin John Ruiz was knocked out completely in the first round when that hook landed clean. David  Tua only had problems with smart boxers, who do not go for the exchanges and moves a lot in the ring.

Boxing Prediction: Andre Ward vs Edwin Rodriguez; 2013-11-16, USA

   

   Unbeaten one of the pound for pound kings 29 years old American Andre "S.O.G." Ward (26-0-0(14 KO) is coming back after more then a year break to the big boxing. On this Saturday, November 16, he will face 28 years old unbeaten Edwin "La Bomba" Rodriguez(24-0-0(16 KO) rated number 1 in the Dominican Republic and number 4 in the world in Citizens Business Bank Arena, California, USA.  This will be the title defense fight for Ward for his WBA Super World super middleweight title.

   Andre Ward last fought on September last year. After that fight he had shoulder surgery and had almost a year rehabilitation period. On his last fight he won against Chad Dawson(31-1-0) by TKO round 10. Before that he won an impressive victory by unanimous decision against Carl Froch(28-1-0) on the end of the 2011. Ward has very impressive record, his last six opponents were Chad Dawson, Carl Froch, Arthur Abraham, Sakio Bika, Allan Green and Mikkel Kesller.

   Edwin Rodriguez comes to this fight after impressive win by TKO round 1 against Denis Grachev(13-1-1) on July this year. Before that he won by unanimous decision against Ezequiel Osvaldo Maderna(19-0-0) on March this year. It was an ugly fight with big low blows and blows behind the head. Edwin Rodriquez lost 2 points in that fight for braking the rules. But in fact he was dominating all the fight.

   I believe this fight will be very interesting to watch, because Ward is very talented boxer and he comes from 1 year off, it is interesting is he still the same Ward, and how will he deal with unbeaten  powerful puncher like Edwin Rodriguez...

Post fight Analysis: Demetrius Andrade vs Vanes Martirosyan: Andrade by SD

   
   Demetrius "Boom Boom" Andrade(20-0-0(13 KO) stayed undefeated after his impressive performance against former unbeaten Vanes Martirosyan.  It was the fight for the vacant WBO light middleweight title.  Andrade won by split decision 114-113, 117-110, 112-115. I scored it 117-110 for Andrade and I was even generous for Martirosyan. I mean the guy was outworked in every round and looked terrible during all fight. The judge that scored 112-115 for Martirosyan(was judging for the first time) I believe was mostly watching ring girls instead of the fight that took place last night in American Bank Center, USA.  Even the one that scored 114-112 was completely out of his mind. Yes, Martirosyan dropped Andrade in the first round by counter-punch when Andrade was too overconfident after he practically torn apart unbeaten Armenian in first round by his fast sharp jabs and power punches. Andrade quickly learned from his mistake and he was more careful during the fight.
 

   Andrade was throwing almost twice more and landing almost twice more during all the rounds. The fight went exactly as I expected it to go. Andrade always kept Martirosyan on the end of his jab. That jab was landing all night. Martirosyan looked completely out of ideas what to do in the ring. He was eating jab all the time, moving around and attacking with rare furies, he had some success to land his shots but mostly he was short or Andrade went very low with his head, and it was hard to connect.

Post fight Analysis: Nonito Donaire vs Vic Darchinyan; Donaire by TKO round 9

   Nonito "The Filipino Flash" Donaire(32-2-0(21 KO) stopped Armenian Vic "Raging Bull" Darchinyan on the round 9 last Saturday night in American Bank Center, USA.  It was second time Vic was stopped, and both times he was stopped by Nonito, and both times with a perfect left hook. While the punch was perfect by itself I wouldn't call Nonitos performance perfect. I even wouldn't call it a good performance.  I mean I saw this fight as a draw on the moment of stoppage and I was even generous for Nonito. Only one judge saw it as a draw, other two had Darchinyan winning 6 of 8 rounds. I understand that it was a come back fight after a loss, also Donaire has a newborn son, so maybe he has less time for training and less sleep at nights, but he looked poor in his defense and was eating those rare left hands that Darchinyan drops for all the fight.
 

   I mean this fight was completely different from the last one, just the end was almost the same. This time Vic Darchinyan was not going forward so much. He was in super defensive stance for all the rounds.  He was moving backwards everytime Nonito threw a shot, he was almost not using his jab, just he attacked with his big left hand from time to time. What was most amazing is that those left hands were landing. I mean Nonitos defense was so poor that Vic Darchinyan was able to land one power shot after another and Nonito wasn't able to block or to escape them.

   One more important thing was that almost every time Darchinyan connected, Nonito looked hurt. After the fight Nonito said that Darchinyan broke his cheek in the round 2 and it was very hard for him to continue...

Boxing Prediction: Demetrius Andrade vs Vanes Martirosyan; 2013-11-09, USA

   Undefeated 25 years old American Demetrius "Boo Boo" Andrade(19-0-0(13 KO) rated number 6 in the USA and number 11 in the world will face the toughest challenge in his life by facing 27 years old Armenian Vanes "Nightmare"  Martirosyan (33-0-1(21 KO) rated number 5 in the USA and number 9 in the world on this Saturday evening, November 9, in the American Bank Center, USA. Both guys are still undefeated and there is a vacant WBO light middle weight title on stake.
 

   Demetrius comes to this fight after his impressive win against Mexican Freddy Hernandez(30-3) by unanimous decision on January this year.  Before that he stopped Alexis Hloros(16-4-2) by TKO round 2 on  September 2012.

   Vanes Martirosyan comes to this fight after TKO round 2 victory over human punching bag Ryan Davis(24-10-3) from USA on June this year. Before that win he had a  technical draw against  Cuban Erislandy Lara(17-1-1) on the end of 2012. The fight was stopped on the round 9 because of the cut that opened above Vanes left eye because of the accidental head butt. The judges had it even at that time, but I can say that Vanes had some problems to land his shots against super defensive southpaw Lara.

   After this fight there will be only one undefeated left. This fight is not a mismatch. Both guys are in the best form, both young, both needs this win for any means. These too almost started the fight  on the press conference yesterday, I believe there will be a great action inside the ring...

Boxing Prediction: Nonito Donaire vs Vic Darchinyan; 2013-11-09, USA

 30 years old Nonito "The Filipino Flash" (31-2-0( 20 KO) Donaire rated number 1 in Philippines and number 2 in the world will try to come back to the big boxing scene by facing 37 years old Vic "Raging Bull" Darchinyan (39-5-1( 28 KO) rated number 1 in Armenia and number  11 in the world on this Saturday, November 8 in the American Bank Center, USA. This is a very important fight for Nonito as he must get his confidence back after his first loss after 12 years against very talented Guillermo Rigondeaux (12-0-0). Rigondeaux also stripped him from his WBO super bantamweight title.
 

   Nonito comes to this fight after his loss by unanimous decision against Guillermo Rigondeaux on April this year. Before that he knocked out  Jorge Arce(61-7-2) from Mexico  in round number 3 on  the end of 2012.

   Vic comes to this fight after TKO round 4 win against Javier Gallo (18-6-1) from Mexico on May this year. Before that he won by unanimous decision against Luis Orlando Del Valle(16-1-0) on September 2012. Vic won only 2 of his last 4 fights and this is the second time these two will meet.

   First time they met on the middle of 2007 and Nonito made a real surprise by knocking out Vic Darchinyan in the round 5. It was the first loss for the Armenian and the only TKO he ever had. No one ever stopped Vic before and after that fight. While Nonitos career went straight forward from that time, for Vic it had absolutely opposite effect. From that time he lost against Joseph Agbeko on 2009, Abner Mares on 2010, Anselmo Moreno on 2011 and Shinsuke Yamanaka on 2012. Of course he had wins  against poor opposition in between those loses but everytime he tried to step up he faced the loss by decisions...

Post fight analysis: Magomed Abdusalamov vs Mike Perez: Perez by UD

   Mike "The Rebel" Perez (20-0-0(12 KO) from Cuba won a great battle against hard hitting Russian Magomed " Mago" Abdusalamov by unanimous decision 97-92, 95-94, 97-92 last Saturday on the undercard for Golovkin vs Stevens. My score was 96-93 for Perez. I believe Abdusalamov won 3-4-9 rounds. Anyway it was a brutal fight. After the fight Abdusalamov complained about some headache and the doctors discovered a small blood clot on his brain. Abduslamovs face took terrible beating, his nose and cheek was broken, also he has broken his hand in that fight. Perez also took big beating, he had  a cut under his eye from the big left hand that Abdusalamov landed.
 

   This was the fight where people were able to see how big was the will of Abdusalamov to win the fight. It was a very bad fight for him, problems started from the first round when Perez managed to break Magomeds nose with his big right hooks that he connected all night long. Abdusalamov had to fight all the rest rounds with the opened mouth. Because of that opened mouth in the middle rounds Perez also broke Abdusalamovs jaw and rounds 7-8-9-10 Abdusalamov had to fight with a broken jaw. His face looked terrible, one side was twice bigger then the other.

   It was hard to believe that Perez was able to break Abdusalamovs face so much becouse he is not so big puncher, I believe the amount of punches that he landed 312 of 813 was the case. Many of them were power punches, on the other hand Abdusalamov landed 248 of  662 and most of them were power punches. I mean Abdusalamov landed much harder punches, when his punches connected it was completely different sound then those that connected from Perez...

Post fight Analysis: Gennady Golovkin vs Curtis Stevens; Golovkin by TKO round 8

    
   Gennady "GGG" Golovkin ( 28-0-0(25 KO) stays unbeaten after his impressive show on last Saturday night in Madison Square Garden Theater, where he destroyed Curtis " Showtime" Stevens by TKO round 8. Stevens corner stopped the fight after eight round, because there fighter took huge beating and there was no way for him to win that fight or to continue without being knocked out. I mean Stevens was still standing, but Golovkin was hitting him with so many shots and Stevens was throwing so rare that even referee was ready to stop the fight in the end of round 8.

    Stevens mother left arena few rounds ago because she just couldn't see that destruction of her son. But she was back on round 8 and looked much more relaxed when Stevens corner stopped the fight. I agree with her 100%, Curtis did what he can in best way, just it was not enough and to take more punishment from hard hitting Golovkin was not necessary anymore.

    The fight didn't go the way I expected it to go. I believed that Stevens will try to go more inside and land his big shots, instead of that Stevens took defensive mode. Kept his hands high and was attacking very rare.  I mean he was trying to catch Golovkin on counter with his big left hook, but Golovkin was more clever he didn't go inside very much, he was using his jab all the time and hitting closed Stevens with his jab and hooks to the body and head. Stevens was able to catch Golovkin few times on counter but Golovkin took those shots very well...
