LOTS of people in the industry read this board . . .
GGG has an HBO contract. GGG can sell out major arenas as the A side. GGG can headline a PPV against an unknown opponent and sell the same amount as ward vs kovalev.
i'm not saying GGG is anywhere near the star canelo is, BUT, how many guys are as big as GGG right now? very few. thousands and thousands of fighters in the world and a very small handful can draw what GGG can draw in the US. so to say he has no bargaining chips is ridiculous. he's the only fighter with the three most important belts in his division in the entire sport. he's one of very very few that can generate millions in one night.
Bottom line, golovkin has no bargaining chips, he's fought nobodies, he's beaten nobodies, thus he has NO ONE on his resume to boast about except a guy that had to move up 2 TWO weight divisions, AFTER he declined a 157 catchweight. Yet, in his OWN words, he said that was his biggest test...sooooo what?
