Boxing's back in the Big Apple!
HBO?s hit late-night boxing franchise presents a twin bill of hard-hitting action highlighted by a red-hot middleweight title showdown when HBO BOXING AFTER DARK: GENNADY GOLOVKIN VS. CURTIS STEVENS AND MIKE PEREZ VS. MAGOMED ABDUSALAMOV returns to The Theater at Madison Square Garden for an epic showdown airing SATURDAY, NOV. 2 at 10:00 p.m. (live ET/tape-delayed PT) exclusively on HBO.
MORE ABOUT THE BOUTS:
The main feature pits undefeated Kazakhstan sensation Gennady Golovkin (27-0, 24 KOs) against rising star Curtis Stevens (25-3, 18 KOs) of Brooklyn in a scheduled 12-round middleweight title bout. With an 89% knockout rate ? the highest percentage of any world champion today ? and knockouts of his last 14 opponents, Golovkin, 31, has established himself as one of the most electrifying fighters in the sport.
Like Mike Tyson and Riddick Bowe before him, Curtis Stevens (25-3, 18 KOs) is a product of the hardscrabble neighborhoods of Brooklyn. Although he?s been a pro for nine years, the 28-year-old?s career has surged the past two years and he?s scored impressive first-round KO victories in three of his last four fights.
