Gennady Golovkin vs. Curtis Stevens will take place at The Theater at Madison Square Garden Saturday night, and the WBA Middleweight Championship will be on the line.
Golovkin—who will be making the ninth defense of his title—is considered by many to be the baddest man in the sport. He has fearsome punching power, which has made it difficult for him to land significant fights, and he is at worst the second-best middleweight on the planet. None of the top dogs at 160 pounds seem in a hurry to face him, and with good reason.
Steven is a local kid who grew up in Brooklyn and will be fighting in front of a hometown crowd. Like Golovkin, he is known for his huge punching power, and he has refused to be intimidated by his foes resume, record or reputation. This will be his first challenge for a world title.
This is one of those fights where you don't want to blink. It could end at any moment. Here we set you up right for the big fight with our complete preview and prediction for Gennady Golovkin vs. Curtis Stevens.
