Apparently Murray recently tweeted that Golovkin never made him an offer to fight. Here is Murray's promoter Hatton saying that Golovkin made an offer which he turned down.

Speaking to Steve Bunce about Murray's next move, Hatton said: "We're hoping to make an announcement in the next few weeks. There are lots of offers coming in for Martin, but it's just about finding the right move at the right time.
"That's something I learnt from my old promoter, Frank Warren. This promoting game is all about timing and Martin's a real flavour of the month due to his wonderful performance.
"He's had offers - Golovkin [was] one of them. Martin has no fear of fighting any of them and I think he's proved that by going to Argentina and going to Germany."
But Hatton knows from his own experience in the ring that there are benefits to pacing the flow of fights against top quality opposition. "I wanted to fight Kostya Tszyu three years before I boxed him and if I'd done that, he'd have beaten me," Hatton admitted. "It's all about the right timing - build the fight up, build the interest."
Either Murray is lying or his team has been lying to him which is making him look like an idiot. Hatton also admitting he ducked Tszyu for three years which he's now doing with his own fighters.
