World top middleweight Golovkin eyes Saunders after stopping Brook | Bangkok Post: news


LONDON - The world's top-ranked middleweight Gennady Golovkin wants another fight in Britain after stopping Kell Brook and is targeting a unification bout with Billy Joe Saunders. Golovkin, whose World Boxing Association (WBA) belt was not on the line, now wants to fight Brook's fellow Briton and World Boxing Organization (WBO) champion Saunders before moving on to Mexican Saul "Canelo" Alvarez in a year's time. Saunders has the only world middleweight belt not held by WBC-WBA-IBF champion Golovkin, who made Brook his third British victim after Martin Murray and Matt Macklin. "We tried to make that (Saunders) fight before in the UK and it didn't go very far. - 'Didn't hurt me' -Brook, the IBF world welterweight champion, had stepped up two weight divisions to fight the fearsome Kazakh.
