Why doesn't DAZN force Golovkin to fight "premium opponents?"

GGG is Mayweather level guy. he fights whoever he wants and he is great paid for that. Nobody tells him what to do.

Except Mayweather is a huge ratings draw, deserving of all the money he gets paid.

Golovkin? Not so much. To say the least.

What did better numbers? Canelo-GGG 1 and 2 or Canelo-Mayweather? Lol

Canelo-Mayweather almost did better numbers than Canelo-GGG 1 and 2 COMBINED.

You mean you meant to tell that poster “except” that DAZN did tell GGG what to do and is why his contract had to be redone since it was void, dependent on Canelo. Loeffler and GGG could’ve easily sued DAZN too making headlines that the platform was at fault not them. They had nothing on DAZN which means GBP, DAZN and GGG Promotions colluded to strategizing a Canelo fight. GGG should feel ashamed he was in on it. Such bad karma…GGG took his newly done and lower end deal and is quiet.

Not even close, lol. The total revenue was basically the same for all 3 fights. Which one had the lowest gate revenue of those 3 btw???

I'm talking viewership numbers.

Canelo-Mayweather did 2.2 million buys.

Canelo-Golovkin 1 did 1.3 million buys.
Canelo-Golovkin 2 did 1.1 million buys.

It was about revenue man, not viewership. Just stop

DAZN gets it's revenue from viewership, genius.

Regardless - GGG has been part of 2 of the top 10 highest grossing fights of all time. To say he isn't a ratings draw, or isn't a revenue producer, is foolish.
