Not a bad take, but does Dirrell really bring much to the table at present, is he even an elite guy anymore? Golovkin probably wouldn't make any more for that fight than he will against the couple of guys he's lined up to fight, he'd be a lot wiser to hold out for other bigger names unless Dirrell actually has a relevant fight in the meantime.
Understand I'm not trying to be a dick here when I say, you realize that's an excuse right?

I get that it's business but people call out Floyd for his opponents, people call out Canelo for his opponents, hell I'll even throw out that bum Julio Cesar Chavez Jr gets called out for being coddled. I could go on and on listing people who get called out for their opponents, but the difference is they've fought SOME top guys. When you don't do something it's on you. We need to stop excusing this guy. I want him to do well so I won't be wrong. But this Adamu fight is a joke and looking to line up Korobov next is just too much if it's true.
