Golovkin finally gains deserved middleweight showdown with Lemieux

Widely regarded as the most feared man in boxing, Kazakhstan’s Gennady Golovkin has finally been able to secure a well-received bout against a worthy opponent, as the knock-out king prepares for a middleweight showdown with David Lemieux.

On October 17th at the Mecca of boxing, WBA, IBO and WBO ‘interim’ middleweight champion ‘GGG’ will enter the ring to face IBF title holder and Montreal power puncher Lemieux in Madison Square Garden.

Golovkin’s willingness and bravery to fight anyone at any location in Europe or the United States has made him a promoter’s dream and has been rewarded with an anticipated Lemieux meeting, who is 7/1 with Coral to triumph.

The undefeated 33-year-old, rightfully nicknamed the ‘God of War’, has been seeking a foe capable of helping generate a huge fight following, and ferocious Canadian bruiser Lemiuex fits the bill perfectly.

“I’m very excited to face David Lemieux to prove who is number one in the middleweight division,” stated Golovkin.

“I look forward to fighting again at Madison Square Garden and putting on another Big Drama Show for my fans in New York City.”

Boxing’s new ‘Golden Boy’ has become one of the most marketable sporting attractions worldwide, having set attendance records and delivering outrageous TV ratings, with an incredible KO record during his sensational ring outings winning over fans.

Sporting a sublime professional record of 33-0, including an even more impressive 30 stoppage victories, Golovkin’s 91 per cent KO record is the highest in the middleweight division, rampantly distinguishing him as boxing’s most enthralling star.
