Former WBA, IBO and WBC middleweight champion of the world Gennady Golovkin has been offered a massive ₹320 Crore, a two-fight deal to sign with new sports streaming network DAZN.
Gennady Golovkin without a doubt is one of the boxing biggest stars and is recently coming off of a loss to Mexican superstar Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez. He fought Canelo last year on 15th September which was a Mexican Independence Day.
Golovkin met with DAZN executive John Skipper and Matchroom boxing promotions CEO Eddie Hearn. He also met with officials from Premier Boxing Champions.
Sources: DAZN’s offer to GGG in the neighborhood of $45 million for two fights. Fight 1 in May/June before a third bout with Canelo Alvarez in September, assuming he beats Daniel Jacobs. PBC’s two-fight offer worth less money overall and includes a PPV bout with Jermall Charlo

But DAZN has offered a massive two-fight deal which could get Golovkin ₹320 Crore. He can fight in May/June and then a massive trilogy against Canelo Alvarez in September. PBC has also offered a two-fight deal, but their offer is worth less money overall and includes a PPV bout with Jermall Charlo.
The meeting took place in Los Angeles and it’s highly likely that Golovkin will pick DAZN over PBC.
Sources: If GGG signs with DAZN, it’s possible he fights in May or June against middleweight titleholder Demetrius Andrade.
