Next for Golovkin.

@Fenster - are you suggesting that GGG against Murray will be GGG's announced fight in Monte Carlo in February? It might make sense when considering that Murray can't visit the US due to his criminal history. If so, it could also be against the Sturm/Barker winner in the UK or Germany, right?

Hatton specifically said that Murray's "world" title fight is abroad. Murray-Barker is an England fight plus Barker is tied up with Sturm in rematch clauses.

Murray-Martinez is a no go and Quillin is out because of the visa issues. That leaves Golovkin. The fact his promoter said his next fight is Monte Carlo... you don't need to be Sherlock Holmes.

Here's the wrinkle. As far as I know, HBO isn't buying his next fight. Thus, will there be enough money to get a fight with Murray made? If I'm Hatton, why would I put Murray in with GGG for anything less than top $?

Why are they not buying his next fight? (got a link?) GGG is not on "big" money himself - $400,000 the weekend - let alone Murray. Hatton said "world" title fight, it can't be anyone but GGG for obvious reasons, so if it doesn't happen Hatton was wrong/mistaken/bullshitting.

Odd. He just did 1.4 million ppv buys. I don't think Murray can get to the States and GGG kinda has to fight him and Hbo rarely leaves this continent.

The WBA has made Martin Murray the official mandatory for Golovkin.

Perhaps K2 got some extra cash together for the fight in Monte Carlo. Should he beat Murray down, it would further forcing the Martinez fight.

That's 1.4m viewers not PPV.

If he did that amount of PPV he'd be on 25x his current purse and headlining in Vegas.

Lol true enough. Slip of the tongue there. Still a great number and most likely does not take the net into account..
