BoxingScene.com has learned that Universum is trying to line up a credible opponent, with a name, to test the talents of their rising middleweight prospect Gennady Golovkin (17-0, 14KOs) on an upcoming November show. I've heard they tried to get former WBC junior middleweight champion Sergio Mora, and recently tried to secure Ishe Smith. Golovkin is regarded as one of the best talents under Universum's promotional banner. He can certainly fight, and has talent, but at age 27 they need to push him a little faster in terms of competition.
