The Bad Left Hook Pick'em Game: Season 19 - Week 4

We've got 6 fights on the line-up, with the HBO main-event between middleweights Gennady Golovkin and Curtis Stevens topping the bill. The undercard features a battle of undefeated heavyweights, with Magomed Abdusalamov taking on Mike Perez. Also on the same card, but not televised, is a match-up of cruiserweights, with Ola Afolabi going up against Lukasz Janik.

What could be the weekend's best fight takes place in Mexico, with top 10 flyweights Hernan Marquez and Giovani Segura going at it.

In the UK, we've got yet another meeting of undefeated heavyweights, with Lucas Browne facing Richard Towers. On the same show, Tommy Coyle meets John Simpson in a match-up of British lightweights.
