True, Oscar would be poor if he had a deep stable. He doesn't.
Plus I don't have a problem with seeing some possible future stars of the sport under the bright lights for the first time.
I saw Golovkin's first fight in the USA -- in 2012 against Gregorz Proksa -- live and in person from the fifth row of the Turning Stone Casino. I knew who GGG was, because I'm a boxing freak, like you. But it still was one of the thrills of my sporting life to see him live and in the detonating flesh well before only the hardcore knew of the mighty GGG.
