By J Caldwell: On March 18, Gennady “GGG” Golovkin, (a self-profess big bear of the middleweight division) will be defending his titles (WBC, WBA, IBF, IBO) o HBO pay-per-view at the Madison Square Garden against what appears to be his toughest opponent yet: Daniel “The Miracle Man” Jacobs, (32-1, 29 KO’s) current WBA Middleweight Champion, (a native New Yorker who has the heart of a lion) is set to do battle in his own backyard.

GGG, (36-0, 33 KO’s) who trains out of Big Bear, California, seems up for the challenge. “I love fighting at Madison Square Garden, it feels like my second home”, said Golovkin. “Danny is a great fighter, one of the best middleweights and a big test for me. I look forward to another ‘Big Drama Show’ in New York City.”
