    There is no 'top up and coming talent'. Stevens was the best that could be made for this date. Everyone else in the MW top 10-15 was pre-booked, injured, with SHO, had visa issues (Murray) or banned (Mundine). Mora mighta been a possibility but that was just about it apart from Stevens.

    Still, Curtis was a Golden Gloves winner, brings speed and KO power and local support, so it oughtta be a fun fight while it lasts. Certainly he'll be the first opponent of GGGs who is known as a KO puncher, and he seems to have brought his power down from 168/75, so I think it'll be an OK test - I give Stevens a better chance than I gave Macklin, and GGG can't afford to take Stevens lightly.

    Golovkin TKO5.

        The most dangerous opponent that a top fighter delivered by the "Russian old school" ever faced was actually the Russian vodka...

          ... So Golovkin didn't call Martinez, didn't call Ward... Basically GGG made no calls according to you.
          No actually he didnt why do people on this site fall in love with certain fighters then just make things up to make it seem like everyone is scared or ducking them

              One thing is certain, and it is that Curtis Stevens sold this fight like no one expected him to.

                    Stevens seems to be on a good roll and is probably at his best. But it is so hard to forget he lost to Jesse ****ing Brinkley. And he barely got by Derrick Findley. He is simply not at GGG's level in every way. This fight won't go 6 rounds. GGG by emphatic KO.
