londoner Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 By Alexey Sukachev According to Oleg Hermann, manager of sparkling Kazakh middleweight banger Gennady Golovkin (20-0, 17 KOs), his protégé will fight Hassan N’Dam N’Jikam (25-0, 17 KOs) of France in his next outing. A thrilling clash between two undefeated prospects will also be a partial unification of the WBA title: N’Jikam, 27, is the WBA interim champion, and the former amateur superstar Golovkin, 28, holds the “regular” title. Quotes are necessary as the World Boxing Association not-so-surprisingly has three beltholders in this particular weight class. The “super” title belongs to German stalwart Felix Strum (35-2-1, 15 KOs), 32. Hermann gave a short interview to Kazakh media portal Sports.kz to share his feelings regarding the current situation. About litigation with Universum Box-Promotion on promotional rights, “We asked the Hamburg district court to postpone the hearing (which was scheduled to take place on March 23) for two weeks. We need some extra time to make our arguments more convincing. A judge, who was involved in the landcourt during the first instance, wasn’t competent enough to rule the dispute in favour of Gennady. And we were unable to explain all the details to the judge. This time it will be different. It’s not only our side who are preparing for the new hearings. Judges make more thorough preparations as well. I think our chances are high. We should get a satisfying ruling”. About Golovkin’s next fight, “We already know our future opponent. It will be WBA interim champion Hassan N’Dam N’Jikam from France. This fight will take place either in late May or in early June. A tentative place for this contest is Monaco. Right now we are discussing the details with N’Jikam’s handlers. Gennady has already landed in the States where he will start his preparations and, hopefully, will have a strong training camp”. Editor's Note: Hassan N’Dam N’Jikam is also scheduled to fight Giovani Lorenzo on April 2. http://www.boxingscene.com/golovkin-vs-njikam-tentative-june-monaco--37504 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crusader Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 Hassan N’Dam N’Jikam has other thoughts, while he is in preparation to fight Lorenzo has released an interview at the French newspapers, now focused only dominican tough challenger but after he thinks only at Felix Sturm.. (note: N'Dam N'Jikam has often the sparring for Sturm, knows him well and is sure to beat).... source: http://www.netboxe.com/rep1/page.php?idz=11541 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamasadlittleboy Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 I just want the WBA to piss off with titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dynamic Hispanic Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Really good fight, BS title or not. This is the kind of fight you rarely see two blue chippers in against each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the kind of fight you rarely see two blue chippers in against each other. whilst it is a good fight, its one that should have been made already had it not been for Golovkins promotional woes and the WBA not forcing the fight...
