Wealthy Gorilla has published a list of the 50 richest boxers in the world. Gennady Golovkin (42-2-1, 37 KOs), a professional boxer from Kazakhstan, former middleweight world champion in WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO versions, is on the 20th row of this list, reports "Adyrna.
According to the publication, the fortune of 41-year-old Golovkin is estimated at 30 million dollars.
"Golovkin has endorsement deals with various brands, including Hublot, which makes the world's most expensive watches, and Chivas Regal, an alcoholic beverage," the text reads.
It is also noted that during his professional career from 2006 to 2018, Golovkin was undefeated and never knocked out.
American Floyd Mayweather is the leader of the rating with a fortune of 450 million dollars. In second place is another American - George Foreman. Manny Pacquiao of the Philippines is in third place with $200 million. Also on the list are brothers Wladimir ($90 million) and Vitali Klitschko ($80 million) - respectively, occupying 8 and 10 places.
Golovkin last fought in September 2022, losing to Saul "Canelo" Alvarez. Last year, the Kazakh lost his IBF, WBA and IBO championship belts because he refused to defend his title. Some analysts attribute Golovkin's refusal to defend his title to the fact that he has a lucrative contract with the DAZN streaming service, which does not favor the Kazakhstani opponents in the fight for the belt.
