Certified knockout artist and current WBA (Super), IBO, IBF and interim WBC middleweight titleholder Gennady “GGG” Golovkin has his eyes set on big fights in 2016; and he could clearly use them considering that his pay-per-view numbers for his October fight against David Lemieux didn’t exactly set the world on fire.
The fight everyone wants to see is “GGG”-Saul “Canelo” Alvarez. However, Team Canelo isn’t quite ready for that fight to happen yet despite Alvarez holding the WBC title and Golovkin being his mandatory challenger. A deal was struck that would allow both “GGG” and “Canelo” to take a fights this spring in hopes of staging the highly anticipated battle in September.
