Gennadiy Golovkin Officially Vacates His Middleweight World Titles
The Kazakhstani boxer has held multiple middleweight world championships and is a two-time former unified champion. He held the WBA (Super), WBC, and IBF titles at various points between 2014 and 2023 and challenged once for the undisputed super middleweight championship in 2022.

One fan noted that Golovkin beat Canelo Alvarez in their first fight, drew in their second, and lost the third when he was past his prime. Unfortunately, the official record books will show that he lost twice to Canelo, which is a disappointment for his fans. He Said “This dude beat Canelo 1st fight, draw 2nd fight then lost the 3rd when he was too old and past his prime. Sadly the record books will say that he lost twice to Canelo.
Legend”
