That fight won't happen. If Lee beats Quillin there will be options for him in the UK/Ireland that are much more attractive than a Golovkin fight.
If it happened, I think Golovkin would take him out early. Lee doesn't have much of a defence and he struggles badly with aggression. Andy is at his best against tentative fighters who don't press him, which is why he has a decent chance against Quillin.Comment

If Golovkin/Lee were to happen in the UK or Ireland as team Golovkin have stated their willing to do, I don't think DiBella would have any say. Not that I would see him standing in the way anyways. Haymon could make another major offer to Andy though after he beats Quillin & Saunders, maybe sign him to a long term deal (if he hasn't already with the Quillin offer).Comment

It only seems that DiBella represents Lee when Lee fights in the US. For the Saunders fight it was Warren & Booth doing the negotiations.

If there's a legally binding contract that says the winner has to fight Saunders next (which I think there is), the loophole won't matter.Last edited by DoktorSleepless; 02-23-2015, 01:04 PM.Comment

Only possible loophole is that unifications supersede mandatories but i can't see Lee passing up on an all UK, all Gypsy showdown and massive payday to go after Golovkin first. Saunders is a winnable fight too.
Well there's a good chance of that and since Quillin can't fight going forward and is most effective when utilizing his size advantage letting his opponents come to him so he can time or counter them walking in there's a good chance Lee can win rounds boxing too. Lee's will have a noticeably size advantage and a quite good when boxing from the outside.Comment
