      World middleweight champion, WBA and IBO Gennady Golovkin (31-0, 28 KOs) to fight against Britain's Martin Murray (29-1-1, 12 KOs) has described his opponent as a difficult opponent, but admitted that he was used to it childhood when growing up on the streets of his native city.

      Recall that the fight Golovkin and Murray will be held on February 21 in Monte Carlo. On the eve of an official ceremony held boxers weighing before the fight.

      "Karaganda - a very dangerous city. I went with my friends to a football stadium and fought there. If it turns out in the streets of another area, again there was a fight. 16-17 years ago, the city where I grew up, was very dangerous. We had to prove to the streets, you're the strongest. It was my childhood, when I was 12-13-14 years. It was my normal life. I can not say that it was great. It was very difficult, very dangerous ", - quotes the Golovkin Boxing Scene.
      Gennady is a kid from the streets. I guess that's why I'm such a big fan of him,I can connect with him. I know what he went thru.

                I like this - I've also seen a few other articles and interviews from the Kazakh press which give us some hints of the Golovkin behind the crafted and rather sanitised image of Gennady presented by HBO. Lovin the pic too.. the young GGG showing a bit of brash and his game face instead of the smile which seems to be a permanent fixture nowadays.

                    That pic reminds me of the Martin Scorsese movie with Robert DeNiro and James Woods when they were supposed to be kids...Once Upon A Time In America.
