Even The WBA Think Kell Brook Will Get Pummelled By Gennady Golovkin

Gennady Golovkin will put his WBC and IBF world middleweight titles on the line this weekend when he faces IBF WELTERWEIGHT champion Kell Brook.

You are probably thinking what about his WBA title? Well, the governing body have not agreed to sanction this fight. Yup, merely days away from the fight they've declined to put their world title up for grabs.

President Gilberto Mendoza addressed the situation by saying. "The Championships Committee and the Presidency have not agreed to sanction this bout as a title fight because Brook has never fought as a middleweight. The intent of the organization is to try to protect the integrity and health of the fighters."

The undefeated-Brit steps up not one but TWO weight divisions to take on the most feared man inside the squared circle, as he still has the chance to claim the WBC and IBF versions not to mention a fucking huge upset.

Despite the nature of the fight, the prospect of 'GGG' fighting on these shores as well as the weirdly intriguing match-up has the boxing world buzzing, while Mendoza isn't completely against the bout.

Continuing to add. "We do not oppose the fight, per se. But the rules of the organization stipulate that Golovkin and/or his representatives must request special permission in advance to fight Brook. Under the circumstances, if Golovkin were to lose to Kell Brook, the title would become vacant and would not end up in the hands of the British pugilist."

Anyone like Brook's chances?
