    Comments Thread For: Golovkin Embraces UK Fans, Aims To Make a Statement at O2

    WBC/WBA/IBO/IBF middleweight champion Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin (35-0, 32KOs) is knocking off a goal on his bucket list when he steps in the ring this coming Saturday night, when he faces IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook (36-0, 25KOs) at the O2 Arena in London.

    UK fans didn't seem to embrace him at the airport

      He's not going to be disrespected at all, but he will certainly not have much support.

      If he was fighting someone like Groves in the UK then he'd get a lot of support (given that Groves is an unlikable moron), but he's fighting one of our best and most popular fighters, who is also taking a massive risk.

      I expect mostly silence and some boo's towards GGG.

        Just a little bit bigger.

            Golovkin is the best thing to ever happen to boxing. He is better than Hagler Hearns & Leonard combined. He could have gone up to Heavyweight and stopped Tyson. Kovalev is also really scared of GGG. God warned me about GGG handshake power in a vision.

              The fight sold out in 10 minutes. It wasn't Brook who sold out that fight. Brook never did that. It's all Golovkin in the UK, Uk fight fans.

                The UK fans will like him. Hopefully he comes back for Saunders and Eubank when he has dispatched the overmatched Brook.

                  Yes... I only saw Loffler and Abel carrying all the baggages...
                  GGG says he likes the U.K. fans... I rather think he only likes the U.K. paydays to date...

                    He's liked over here. Boxing fans will be hyped to see him live.
                    I'd imagine they would jump at the chance to see him again if he chooses to fight over here again.

                    Brook will get all the support though i'd imagine, as he is obviously well liked in Britain.
