Middleweight bone-breakers Gennady Golovkin and David Lemieux attended their first New York press conference today to promote their upcoming championship scrap on October 17th. If you haven’t yet heard of this match-up, it’s a sign of two things: you either live in a cave, or, have been neglecting Boxing Base!
Mmm…bit cheesy, that.
HBO Boxing cameras were in New York to broadcast the Golovkin vs Lemieux conference:
The fighters, along with their trainers and promoters, took to the stage to discuss their unification clash which will see Golovkin’s (WBA, IBO) and Lemieux’s (IBF) titles on the line. Fight fans who order the HBO Pay Per View event will also have the chance to enjoy another flavorsome encounter on the undercard’s co-feature.
WBC and RING Flyweight champ Roman Gonzalez will be battling it out with a worthy contender in Brian Viloria. Now here are two fights that certainly get you thinking.
So let’s have your say – who are you picking in Golovkin vs Lemieux?
