Golovkin breaks Macklin in 3.


WBA and IBO Middleweight Champion Gennady Golovkin issued a warning to all concerned on Saturday by way of a third round one punch stoppage of the usually durable Matthew Macklin at Foxwoods. Golovkin pursued the overmatched  Macklin from the first bell and nothing Matthew attempted seemed to deter the Kazakh boxer.  As soon as Golovkin closed the distance down the writing was on the wall for the Irish, Brit as a single body shot completely paralysed the former two time world title challenger in round 3.  Testifying to Max Kellerman later that Golovkin was undoubtedly the hardest one punch hitter he had ever faced.  Golovkin looks to have arrived as a force in a very healthy middleweight division, with Martinez looking like a natural unification match up for the future. GGG as he is known looks like the real deal with his composed approach disguising his lethal capabilities. The relentless intensity coupled with this showing may brand Gennedy as a serious front runner for Middleweight domination.    Golovkin remains the WBA and IBO middleweight champion with this being his 14th straight ko win.    24 stoppages in 27 Wins...   Gennady Golovkin has huge marketability in the US and can enjoy many major opportunities if he continues to improve at the rate he has been.     The future is very bright.
