Kell Brook is promising to dictate the action when he faces Gennady Golovkin next Saturday night at the O2 Arena in London.
Brook (36-0, 25KOs), who holds the IBF welterweight world title, leaps up by thirteen pounds to challenge Golovkin (35-0, 32KOs) for the WBC, IBF, IBO, WBA middleweight belts.
Brook feels the extra weight has made him stronger, faster and a better overall fighter in camp after killing his body for several years to make the welterweight limit of 147.
After staring death in the face during an attack where he was stabbed in 2014, Brook has no fear of the dangerous middleweight puncher, who knocked out his last 22 opponents.
Brook will aim to use his power early and get Golovkin's respect in the very first round and then he plans to use his speed and boxing ability to win the fight, round by round.
Brook told Sky Sports: "I'm eating very well and I'm pushing myself every single day. I've got the fuel and I'm hydrated. This is my dream. No British fighter in history has got a win like this one. Every single day I'm pushing myself to get this win. I'm very confident and I'm big, strong and heavy. I'm ready to rip into Golovkin.
"I will find a way to win. These fighters who've been in with him have already lost before they went in. I've faced death in the face and this is fun to me.
In this fight I'm going to be able to do what I want when I want as often as I want.
"From round one, he's going to know he's in a fight. He's going to see the strength, determination and the will to win to capture all those belts that he's got. People need to realise that when I get in there, I'm not concentrating on what Golovkin will do - I'm concentrating on doing what I want to do. This is my life. This means absolutely everything to me and I'm going to show the world on September 10 what I'm all about. I'm going to take those belts from Gennady Golovkin - believe you me."
