By Dan Ambrose: WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin’s father has reportedly passed away in Kazakhstan, and Golovkin now won’t be available to fight on April 26th like his promoters at K2 Promotion had planed. Golovkin’s April 26th fight against Andy Lee was supposed to be announced this weekend, but that’s not going to happen now. Golovkin will be traveling back to Kazakhstan to be with his family members. As for when his next fight will take place, it’s unknown at this time.
However, Golovkin won’t be fighting Andy Lee when he does return to the ring this year, because Top Rank promoter Bob arum is interested in matching Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. up against Golovkin for later this year.
By Dan Ambrose: Top Rank promoter Bob Arum is reportedly in talks with WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin’s promoter Tom Loeffler for a fight between Golovkin and former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. (47-1-1, 32 KO’s) for July 12th, according to Kevin Iole of Yahoo Sports. Chavez Jr. has to get past his rematch against Brian Vera (23-7, 14 KO’s) this Saturday night at the Alamodome, in San Antonio, Texas, USA. The fight between Chavez Jr. and Golovkin would be at the full 168 lb weight for the super middleweight division. 
By Allan Fox: WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin’s promoter Tom Loeffler of K2 Promotions will be making an announcement this week about who Golovkin will be fighting next on April 26th, according to Steve Kim. It’s expected to be fringe contender #11 WBA Andy Lee (31-2, 22 KO’s), because Loeffler ruled out a fight between Golovkin and the dangerous Erislandy Lara. Lee is far easier fight for Golovkin than Lara, and it’ll help avoid any slip ups on Golovkin’s part. 
By Bob Smith: In this article, I list the ESPN pound for pound top 10, and the most difficult fights that they can possibly face this year. Many of the fights are unlikely for that very reason, but no boxer is invulnerable, and some very famous boxers would not do very well against realistic competitors. If there is no one who can challenge the boxer at that weight, I list “no one”; if there is a challenge, I list the P4P star’s odds of victory – not the betting odds, but the odds that they will win.
By Dan Ambrose: After being chased for over 2 years by WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (29-0, 26 KO’s), WBC middleweight champion Sergio Martinez (51-2-2, 28 KO’s) is saying that he wants to fight Golovkin if he can win his next fight against Miguel Cotto on June 7th. That’s a really big if for Martinez, because he’s been looking old lately since the 12th round of his fight against former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in September of 2012. That fight seemed to have really aged Martinez in a fierce way. 
By Chris Williams: If you were hoping to see a fight between Cuban Erislandy Lara and WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin in April or anytime in the future, you can pretty much forget about it. Golovkin’s promoter Tom Loeffler of K2 Promotions says that Lara isn’t someone that they have on their radar. 
(Photo credit: Showtime) By Allan Fox: If WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (29-0, 26 KO’s) is open to the idea, WBA interim junior middleweight champion Erislandy Lara (19-1-2, 12 KO’s) says he’s willing to fight him. This would be arguably the toughest fight of Golovkin’s career if he and his promoters at K2 Promotions were to agree to take the fight, but I can’t see them saying yes though. 
By Thomas Cowan: Last Saturday, highly hyped knockout artist Gennady Golovkin defended his WBA middleweight title, stopping the brave but ultimately overmatched Ghanaian challenger Osumanu Adama inside 7 rounds in Monte Carlo. Golovkin has said he is ready to fight anyone from 154-168lbs but so far the big fights have eluded him. So will he get one in 2014?
By Scott Gilfoid: It looks like WBA middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin (29-0, 26 KO’s) will be facing #11 WBA. #11 WBO Andy Lee (31-2, 22 KO’s) on April 26th at Madison Square Garden in New York. James Kirkland is out of the picture for Golovkin for that date, according to Dan Rafael. He’s reporting that Kirkland’s camp has said no to the Golovkin fight, although he could fight on the undercard against a still to be determined opponent.
