Coach Abel Sanchez spoke about the influence of age on his former ward - IBF and IBO middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (41-1-1, 36 KOs), as well as the chances of the Kazakhstani to win in the next fight. His words are quoted by bbabo.net.
On April 9, Golovkin will have a unification fight with the WBA "super champion" Japanese Ryota Murata (16-2, 13 KOs). In case of victory, GGG will meet with Mexican Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (57-1-2, 39 KOs) in September.
Canelo threatens Golovkin
- Another obstacle for Gennady is his age. Are you concerned about this? And, as you know, he didn't fight for a very long time. Simple and age.
- He turned pro late. He turned pro at 26, 27, so he doesn't have those miles on the odometer that the other guys have. But what is he doing now? He creates difficult fights for himself that he shouldn't be in. But he is still Gennady Golovkin. He is an amazing athlete, an amazing puncher, and there are only a few guys who can compete with him. The only bad thing right now is that he's taking more hits than he should.
Golovkin made a statement about his retirement and revealed the secret of motivation on the example of sex
Recall that Golovkin has not boxed since December 2020, when in the United States he knocked out the Pole Kamil Sheremeta (21-1, 5 KOs) and defended his world title for the record 21st time. In turn, Murata fought for the last time in December 2019, successfully retaining his title in a fight against Canadian Steven Butler (28-3-1, 24 KOs).
