Murata is a big pay day for Golovkin??

They lost? So they don't really have the money, do they?

It was weird. Murata did not want this fight. I wanna say they already had an opponent schedule but Brant was the mandatory. I actually don't think team Murata bid on the fight at all. They lost by default.

over 17 million tuned in for his last fight in Japan. He makes Crawford, Wilder, Spence look like nobodies when it comes to views. He also makes nearly 10 million a year in endorsements in Japan. He is a more lucrative fight than Jermall Charlo

Again, if that is the case, don't you think it's idiotic for anyone of his opponent to fight him anywhere, but Japan?
If you're Brant's manager, don't you want your fighter to make more money in Japan?

Really? And why would Loeffler assume Murata would want Golovkin for his next fight,
especially now that GGG is belt-less?

Will GEE have to sell his soul to Top Rank or will they collabo like GBP did with Loffler.
If Golo remains a free agent maybe that's the best option for this final run.

It is weird.
Brant's manager virtually avoided Japan.
And all this talk about Murata being huge in Japan didn't make much sense.

[rickJen]

All I'm saying is why are you guys justifying this Murata fight for GGG?
Are you fans of the sport or his accountants?
Don't you prefer Golovkin vs Jermall Charlo next year?

They said 30 million people watched his last fight in Japan so apparently he's some sort of attraction over there.

[Hatesrats]

IF GEE is a free agent & goes around beating dudes from other promotions then I'm cool with that... When he is ready for III Vs. "Money" Alvarez he knows & has freedom to choose.

Still doesn't explain why the Brant fight is not held in Japan, but Vegas.
Could be a once in a lifetime opportunity for Brant to make huge money,
yet he's fighting him in America, not Japan.
