Balsy performance by Hassan N'dam, who despite six knockdowns, outlanded Chocolate in total punches in nine of twelve rounds. Peter Quillin landed the harder shots all night and landed 44% of his power shots.

I personally would like to see N'dam test Golovkin. I think it'd be a good solid test for Golovkin. A fighter who does have a bit of a questionable chin, but has great stamina and endurance and will get up just about every time. Not to mention, has very solid all around boxing fundamentals. Works very hard round after round, and has some good pop to his shots.
Golovkin needs a test like that, because me personally, I'm just not sold on him yet. Golovkin has great power, and picks his shots very well mainly due to his deep amateur background, but he also has poor balance, very flat feet, leaky defense and virtually no head movement IMO.
He very much so reminds me of Tszyu, great power and punch placement, but terrible defense and slow flat feet. Tszyu IMO, while a great fighter in some aspects, was grossly overrated. He was a very good fighter, but nowhere near as good as people made him out to be. Which coincidentally already seems to be the case with Golovkin.
Difference being GGG is already over 30 and needs to waste no more time. Just fight more!

I was watching this fight with my dad and I told him after the first 4 knockdowns "He could be dropped 10 times and he's going to get up 10 times, the guy has heart and it's obvious that he trained really hard for this fight" ... He wasn't dropped 10 times, but 6 is a lot and got up from all of them.

N'Dam showed so much heart in that fight it was unreal. He gained a fan in me, and I'll definitely watch his future fights. That said, I really like Quillin, although I think Sergio would knock him out. Looking forward to more from both guys.
Agree with all of this.
