What has been said?

“It was a long pause. There was enough time to miss boxing and forget certain things,” Golovkin has said about his time away from the ring.

“The training was good. I went through my standard training and it went well and I’m ready.”

“I don’t think about this because I’m tired of thinking about it,” he replied after he was asked about a trilogy with Canelo Alvarez.

“It’s been over two years that we’ve been throwing this around. It’s not my fault that this fight has not taken place.

“Currently, it’s too early to say, but there is a possibility this fight might never happen.”

Szeremeta: “I want this title for Poland and my family. GGG is a great champion, one of the best in history, but it is time for replacement.

“Thank you for the great chance, I must take my opportunity to be the first world middleweight champion from Poland.”
