You've probably seen the news that Khurtzisdze, the Russian gangster looking guy is under arrest for... probably being a Russian gangster.
Saunders still has to do a mandatory defense, 2 in a row in fact according to the WBO. The number 2 behind Khurtsidze, Canelo, is already engaged, and the number 3 is Lemieux.
This is a big opportunity for Golden Boy, regardless of the Golovkin Canelo result, they can involve Lemieux and Canelo in really big money making fights.
They can get Lemieux a title fight, without buying Billy Joe off, as it's a mandatory.
Obviously, Lemieux on the undercard of Golovkin Canelo potentially creates a second marketable product in Lemieux.
Dan Rafael was talking Lemieux Cotto, which still seems bizarre since Lemieux can't lose the weight and Cotto will never fight someone so large.
Assuming Lemieux wins, which is not a given, a slick in shape BJS might be a nightmare for him, Golden Boy will have Cotto, Canelo, and Lemieux with a belt that they can mix and match for the next couple years against each other and a higher profile Golovkin.
