      The fight is taking place in the UK for that reason, Brook is bigger here than Golovkin is anywhere.
      Ouch......

        So because GGG never fought in UK, that means clearly he doesn't have any fans of pull there. Oh my, aren't you a bright person. Did you meditate in the himalayas for such wisdom?

          Why are people voting GGG ? I don't get it, clearly Brook is the main man in the UK.

            Golovkin's got the bigger worldwide audience (I think), but Brook is the bigger name in the UK. Hard for me to say who has a bigger impact on the sales ultimately.

              He is? How come he couldn't get more than £1m for his first unification, which would have been his career high, no?

                Ouch.
                Hah, that's kind of interesting. I remember there was a thread quite some time ago where that didn't seem to be true. I guess becoming champion and defending the belt both against US boxers probably helped his exposure out here in the states and elsewhere. Good for AJ.

                  How come Golovkin has had 2 PPV's ever and done lousy numbers (including a unification fight)?

                  Golovkin is getting a PPV fight that will do 300,000+ buys in a sold out arena, that is because of Kell Brook who will bring the buys and routinely sells out arena's and goes on PPV against any opponent.

                    Brook is the A side over here, no question. The casuals can't even pronounce Golovkin's name ffs everywhere I've went, it's always GGG he's referred to. Hearns sold this fight as Brook moving up to middleweight to the best middleweight there. Everywhere you go, it's Brook this and Brook that. On Sky Sports, outside Sheffield Uni, wherever it is, it's all Brook.

                    On another note relating to the 'If Golovkin fought another UK fighter, it would sell out', no it wouldn't. Golovkin can sell out against Eubank Jr and maybe Degale but that's it. Golovkin wouldn't sell out against BJS over here at BJS's home turf. I was there at BJS last fight against Andy Lee and that arena only sold like 8000 tickets in a 20/21000 capacity arena.
