Former light middleweight world title challenger and California local Vanes Martirosyan (36-3-1, 21 KOs) became a front runner to challenge Golovkin. The IBF stated they would not sanction their belt if the fight was made and Golovkin could potentially be stripped of his title. Martirosyan was criticised as an opponent as he had been a career light middleweight, he was coming off a loss and he had not fought in two years.

On 18 April, Martirosyan was confirmed as Golovkin’s opponent, with the event being billed as ‘Mexican Style 2’ on 5 May, at the StubHub Center.
