However, renowned promoter, Eddie Hearn, made an intriguing statement that may offer supporters optimism that Alvarez will prevail.
“The Golovkin fight becomes bigger now because people give Golovkin a chance of winning the fight.” Matchroom boss Eddie Hearn said in an interview with iFL TV. “Before it was all like, Oh, he’s 39 he’s 40, he’s not going to win the fight. Now people look at that performance and say, OK, maybe Golovkin’s got more chance.”
