Boxing champ Gennady Golovkin has revealed he is now a West Ham United fan after spending last weekend at Upton Park.
The IBF and WBA Middleweight titleholder, with a 34-0 record, watched the Hammers' 2-2 draw with Manchester City before declaring himself a supporter of the London club.
Kazakhstani star Golovkin said he'd love the opportunity to fight at the London Olympic Stadium when West Ham relocate there next season.
"I have heard that the club are moving into a new home during the summer and congratulations to them. This is a big move for them," Golovkin told West Ham's official website.
"I hope that I can go there in the future. Why not? They are beautiful people and it feels like a big family. I have a lot of respect for them.
"I want to put on an amazing show. I hope to stay champion for a long time.
"I really enjoyed my time at West Ham United and thought it was a great game against Manchester City.
"Congratulations to the team for the way they played and they are having a good season.
"It was my first visit to the Boleyn Ground but I really enjoyed it and I have become a fan!"
