Golovkin Promoter: Canelo Wants 65-35, We Want Fair 50-50 Split!
Canelo plans to fight on September 15th, as part of Mexican Independence Day weekend.
As previously reported on BoxingScene.com a few days ago, Golden Boy Promotions, who promote Canelo, are now looking for a new opponent after stating to various media members that Golovkin rejected the rematch.
According to Loeffler, Golovkin is simply looking for a better deal.
He says Canelo is holding firm on a 65-35 financial split - while Golovkin, as the unified champion, wants at least a 50-50 split. There was a split of 70-30 in the first contest.
Loeffler previously explained that Canelo gave Miguel Cotto a 55% share of the money back in 2015 - and the Golovkin fight did a bigger gate and a higher pay-per-view buyrate.
