A decent opponent for Gennady Golovkin (32 year old Kazakhstani). He has the highest KO rate of any middle weight champion ever. He just looked too good coming up, no named guy wants to take the risk of facing him. The only guy calling him out is one the best pound for pound fighter in the world and has eight pounds on him (Andre Ward, and eight pounds means a lot in a boxing match). Hopefully Golovkin has gotten big enough to generate a payday that can tempt a top guy into the ring.

Shame to see a guy who might be one of the best in his generation stuck fighting less than top tier talent. Just watched him knock out a great fighter in 1:19 of the 2nd round.
