Gennady Golovkin vs Steve Rolls Boxing Odds, Preview, and Prediction 6/08/19. Leave Comments 0. Former unified middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin makes his 2019 and DAZN debut against unknown Steve Rolls on June 8, 2019 at the Madison Square Garden in New York. The logical theory is oddsmakers regard Golovkin as one of the best middleweights on the planet, and Rolls as the guy with a minimal chance of pulling off the upset. Golovkin comes in at minus.
Free Pick: GGG wins in rounds 4-6
Best Odds: +188 (William H.)
Although few gave Ruiz any shot at beating Joshua, even fewer are giving Rolls a chance in hell at toppling the hard hitting Golovkin and disrupting the Kazakh’s goal of landing a third fight with Canelo in September. And the oddsmakers reflect this train of thought by setting Rolls as much as a +2530 underdog to GGG sitting between -3500 (Bookmaker) and an utterly ridiculous -25000 (BetDSI). But that doesn’t mean there isn’t money to be made on this fight as prop bets are where it’s at.
Steve Rolls Ggg Odds For Today
This fight is tricky for a couple of reasons: GGG is with a new trainer and Rolls hasn’t faced an opponent in the same stratosphere as Golovkin in the talent department.
Golovkin ditching Abel Sanchez in favor of Johnathan Banks could signal that GGG is aiming to try out his new tricks against Rolls, which could extend the fight longer than it should. Golovkin has always been one to suggest that every fight needs to end in a knockout. After a remarkable stretch from 2008 to 2017 where Golovkin stopped 23 consecutive opponents, GGG has only had one knockout in his last four fights. This certainly suggests that Golovkin will look to stop Rolls, but when will he decide that it’s over is anyone’s guess.
But if Rolls is able to stay in the fight and prove his mettle, would could see a stoppage somewhere in the middle rounds.
To be clear, I don’t see any path for Rolls to win this fight. He lacks the power and technical ability to defeat a fighter who has never been knocked down in either his amateur or professional career. Although GGG lost to Canelo in his last fight, many thought it could have gone his way and the former unified middleweight champion would still be undefeated. Nevertheless, here we are. And where we are isn’t going to be where Rolls wants to stand once GGG decides that he’s tired of trying new tricks and decides to sit on his punches.
Right now, the line for the Golovkin ending the fight between rounds 4-6 is +188, which appears to be the sweet spot. GGG rarely allows an opponent to hang around past seven rounds. As a matter of fact, outside of Canelo and Jacobs, only four fighters have made it to the 8th round. Rolls isn’t as good as David Lemieux or Martin Murray. He’s probably not as good as Curtis Stevens, either. With Golovkin seeing what transpired last week and the incentive to destroy his opponent and set the table for a rematch with Canelo, chances are that Golovkin executes his game plan, puts a few new tricks to work and sends Rolls packing in the middle of the fight.
Ideally, taking GGG in rounds 4-6 makes the most sense. But, just to be safe, putting a few dollars down on GGG ending the fight in the 7th round (+800) won’t hurt.
It’s a case of out with the old and in with the new for Gennadiy Golovkin.

Steve Rolls Ggg Odds Against
Golovkin is a man with a new outlook on life, and it clearly shows.
Having split with longtime trainer Abel Sanchez following a dispute regarding payment, the Kazakh was on the lookout for a new voice in the corner.
Banks, while not the most obvious choice of trainer, was the one that Golovkin wanted. He is a former heavyweight contender who worked with Wladimir Klitschko when Emmanuel Steward passed away in2012.
Whether or not he can bring a freshness to Golovkin’s game remains to be seen, but by all accounts, Golovkin is happy with the man in the corner.
On June 8, the former middleweight world champion will honor the first bout of a six-fight deal against Rolls in Madison Square Garden. Having lost the first fight of his career to Canelo inSeptember last year, Golovkin is aiming to get back to winning ways against the Canadian.
