Is this really happening again so soon? Is a middleweight champ really taking on a welterweight who has never competed in the division? Do weight classes even exist anymore?

These questions are what I pondered after the press release was sent out on Friday announcing Gennady Golovkin’s upcoming middleweight title defense against Kell Brook on September 10. It was followed, of course, by that eerie, all-too-familiar feeling of dread once again embracing the boxing world.

he 23-year-old from Surrey has had only seven fights as a professional (7-0-KO3) but is confident of relieving Filipino Casemiro (22-3-KO14) of the crown when the pair meet at The O2.
