IBF, IBO middleweight champion Gennadiy Golovkin is looking to make even more history in Florida when he attempts to make a division-record 21st successful defense of his World Middleweight titles against Kamil Szeremeta.

Szeremeta is GGG’s mandatory challenger for the IBF strap he won against Sergey Derevyanchenko, and the unbeaten Pole, eight years younger than the defending world champion, enters this fight like a hurricane gathering strength, having won three of his last five fights by knockout, including a second-round stoppage of Oscar Cortes on the undercard of Golovkin’s win over Derevyanchenko.

The action then moves over to Texas the following night to end 2020 with a bang as Alvarez goes toe-to-toe with WBA Super and Ring Magazine champion Smith in front of a 12,000 crowd at the Alamodome.
