Curtis Stevens' promoter says 'no' to $300.000 fight with Gennady Golovkin?
ASTANA. August 11. KAZINFORM Allboxing.ru web portal says that Main Events promoter Kathy Duva has recently turned down a $300.000 offer from Gennady Golovkin's promoting team to arrange the fight with Curtis Stevens, Kazinform has learnt from Vesti.kz.
Golovkin's promoter Tom Loeffler reportedly offered $300.000 to 28-year-old Curtis Stevens for a bout with Kazakhstan-born boxer on November 2.
"It's our job to make sure he's paid appropriately to fight toughest guy in division," Main Events' official Twitter account says of the offer to Stevens.
NOTE: During his last HBO fight in late June, Gennady 'GGG' Golovkin KOed Matthew Macklin of Great Britain in the third round. Curtis Stevens has become popular by brutally knocking out Saul Roman in the first round of their bout on August 4, 2013.
