Gennady Golovkin could lose his second title in a row
At the same time, the 40-year-old athlete does not intend to end his career.
Just the other day, the famous Kazakhstani boxer Gennady Golovkin had to vacate his IBF middleweight title after refusing to make a mandatory defense against Brazilian Esquiva Falcao.
Exactly the same story arose with Golovkin with the WBA title in the same middle division.
The organization has already put forward a candidate in the person of Erislandy Lara, but the Kazakhstani still has not expressed his consent to the fight.
At the end of the allotted time, Golovkin will lose the belt, which will become vacant, and completely different people will fight for him.
Meanwhile, after last year's defeat to Saul Alvarez, 40-year-old Golovkin said he was not going to leave the ring.
In total, during his long career, the Kazakhstani lost only twice, but won in forty-two fights.
