By Francisco Salazar - Gennady Golovkin has it pretty good, doesn't he?
He fights on a premium network, has a growing fan base, and is slowly emerging as one of the top fighters and draws in boxing.
Whether it is his devastating power that paralyzes his opponents or his infectious smile that draws people to him, the Kazakh-born Golovkin has been able to balance confidence and humbleness really well.
While there are those who believe Daniel Geale is a small obstacle in the way of more-lucrative fights, Golovkin knows the game all too well. He may be the favorite, but the last thing Golovkin is doing is overlooking a worthy challenger.
Golovkin will face Geale in a 12 round bout at Madison Square Garden in New York City, N.Y. on Saturday night. The bout, along with the heavyweight showdown between Bryant Jennings and Mike Perez, will be televised live on HBO at 9:30PM ET/ 6:30PM PT.
Golovkin was already a world champion when he first fought on American soil almost two years ago. It was not so much that he defeated Grergorz Proksa that night, but in the manner of how he dominated and brokee down a modest opponent. [Click Here To Read More]
