Gennadiy Golovkin-Kamil Szeremeta Fight Finally Set For December 18
By Keith Idec

Published On Tue Nov 24, 2020, 04:49 PM EST

Gennadiy Golovkin finally has a date for his mandatory middleweight title defense against Kamil Szeremeta.

Matchroom Boxing, Golovkin’s co-promoter, and Golovkin’s promotional company announced Friday that Golovkin-Szeremeta has been scheduled for December 18. DAZN delayed adding Golovkin’s fight versus Szeremeta to its streaming schedule for a few months, but the 38-year-old Golovkin now knows when he’ll make a mandated defense of the IBF middleweight title he regained by edging Ukraine’s Sergiy Derevyanchenko in October 2019 at Madison Square Garden in New York.

Poland’s Szeremeta is the IBF’s third-ranked challenger for Golovkin’s championship. The 31-year-old Szeremeta is the leading available contender for Golovkin’s mandatory defense because the top two spots in the IBF’s 160-pound ratings are vacant.

While undefeated, Szeremeta (21-0, 5 KOs) is widely viewed as a huge underdog against even this aged version of the hard-hitting Golovkin (40-1-1, 35 KOs).

Golovkin’s return to the ring was delayed longer than he would’ve preferred, yet this lengthy layoff at least enabled the Kazakh knockout artist to rest and fully recover from his brutal battle versus Derevyanchenko (13-3, 10 KOs). Golovkin defeated Derevyanchenko by unanimous decision in an extremely entertaining slugfest that BoxingScene.com voted its “Fight of the Year” for 2019.

His low-profile fight with Szeremeta will be Golovkin’s third appearance since he signed a six-fight contract with DAZN in March 2019. Golovkin knocked out Toronto’s Steve Rolls (20-1, 11 KOs) in the fourth round of his DAZN debut in June 2019 at Madison Square Garden.

Golovkin’s deal with DAZN reportedly will pay him in excess of $100 million altogether.

He had hoped to face middleweight rival Canelo Alvarez a third time by now, but the Mexican superstar wasn’t willing to fight Golovkin late last year. Alvarez’s refusal to fight him again led Golovkin to battle Derevyanchenko for the then-vacant IBF 160-pound championship that was stripped from Alvarez for his team’s failure to strike a deal with Derevyanchenko, who was the mandatory challenger for Alvarez’s IBF belt.

Alvarez, who beat Golovkin by majority decision in their 12-round rematch two years ago, eventually changed his mind and was willing to partake in a third fight against Golovkin earlier this year. By then, however, Golovkin already was contractually committed to defending his title against Szeremeta.

The 30-year-old Alvarez’s return to DAZN after a legal battle with the streaming service and former promoter Golden Boy could lead to his third fight versus Golovkin finally coming together in 2021. Alvarez (53-1-2, 36 KOs) will to square off against England’s Callum Smith (27-0, 19 KOs) for Smith’s WBA “super” world 168-pound championship in his next fight, on December 19 at the Alamodome in Texas.

Golovkin vs. Szeremeta - Undercard Information
By Random Hits

Published On Fri Dec 11, 2020, 04:32 PM EST

Two world title fights will be featured on the undercard of the historic Gennadiy "GGG" Golovkin - Kamil Szeremeta IBF/IBO World Middleweight Championship. Undefeated super middleweight contenders Ali Akhmedov (16-0, 12 KOs), from Almaty, Kazakhstan and Carlos Gongora (18-0, 13 KOs), from Esmeraldas, Ecuador, will rumble for the vacant IBO super middleweight world title and unbeaten WBA super featherweight world champion Hyun Mi Choi (17-0-1, 4 KOs), from Seoul, South Korea, will be looking to extend her 12-year title reign against Calista Silgado (19-11-3 14 KOs) from Tolu, Colombia.

Presented by GGG Promotions and Matchroom Boxing with Warriors Boxing, the Golovkin - Szeremeta world championship event will take place Friday, Dec. 18, behind closed doors at Hard Rock Live at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, FL. It will be streamed live exclusively on DAZN beginning at 5pm ET in over 200 countries and territories.

"Title fights have always been my goal, and together with the team we became one step closer to the world title. I am confident in myself, my strength, and can’t wait to step into the ring. The training camp was held at the highest level as always, and I am ready for the fight," Akhmedov said.

"We have been training together for several years and I have seen his progress with every fight and training camp. He is ready to fight for the world title and I am glad that Ali represents GGGP at the turning point of his career. I am sure he will succeed," Golovkin said.

"I know I will be in tough with Akhmedov and I am ready for anything he wants to offer. We will see if he can do the same against me. Boston is about to see the start of its newest championship dynasty -- mine," Góngora said.

Akhmedov, who has won 75% of his fights by stoppage, returns to the ring having won five of his last six bout by knockout. He captured the WBC International Silver super middleweight title on June 8, 2019 by knocking out undefeated Marcus McDaniel in the third round. He followed that up with his first title defense, a first-round stoppage of Andrew Hernandez, Oct. 5, 2019. Promoted by GGG Promotions, he has been in the same training camp of his mentor Gennadiy Golovkin for several years.

Góngora, who represented Ecuador in the 2008 and 2012 Olympics, reaching the quarterfinals in the 2008 summer games, has been training out of the Boston area throughout his professional career. The Ecuadorian bomber's skill set as a boxer puncher and his victory by knockout ratio of 72% has made him one of the most avoided fighters. Now, in his first opportunity to fight on the international stage, he has vowed to make the most of this opportunity.

Choi’s 19th pro outing is her 18th World title fight, and on her American debut, the two-weight World ruler will look to make a big statement to her star-studded rivals at Super-Featherweight, while Calista is looking to break her curse in World title outings, having challenged for elite belts on six previous fights.

“From the time I started boxing, it was my dream to fight in the United States,” said Choi. “Now, it’s time to realize that dream. I am ready to show everyone a great boxing match. Through this match I hope to gain respect and support from the world. I’m looking forward to my first match in the United States.”

Also added to the card is British Super-Middleweight World title contender John Ryder (28-5 16 KOs) who takes on Michael Guy (12-5-1 5 KOs) over ten rounds. Ryder is back in action for the first time since taking on Callum Smith for the WBA and WBC Diamond titles, running the champion close on his Liverpool home turf. The Londoner will be looking to shake the rust off as he prepares for a big fight in the first quarter of 2021.

Reshat Mati (8-0 6 KOs) has been an exciting addition to the paid ranks, and the Albanian Bear fights for the ninth time as a pro and unbeaten Californian 18 year old Jalan Walker (6-0 6 KOs) fights on US soil for the first time against Rafael Reyes (18-11 14 KO's) having boxed in Mexico six times since his debut in November 2019.
