But Lou DiBella, the promoter for Golovkin's IBF mandatory challenger, Sergiy Derevyanchenko, is pushing hard for his boxer to get his earned opportunity - and he is fuming at the idea of having his boxer wait until 2019 to fight GGG.
"[A late withdrawal] is not supposed to stop a mandatory from happening," DiBella said to the paper. "I don't understand saying that extenuating circumstances allow something different. Is the extenuating case that he doesn't want to take a risk? That's what it seems like to me."
Based on the IBF rules, says DiBella, Golovkin has to face his boxer this year.
This year could be next moth or 3 months from now. This year dosen't mean MAY 5TH.
