“Enjoying That Retired Life!”: While Questions Raise Around “Chubby and Out of Shape” Physique, Fans Happy for $30 Million Icon Gennady ‘GGG’ Golovkin as He Steps Into New Venture Outside Boxing

Gennady Golovkin last entered the boxing ring in September 2022 against Canelo Alvarez, losing the fight via unanimous decision. Ever since then, the $30 million boxing legend has undergone a hiatus from the boxing world. Boxing fans have even raised questions about a potential retirement. Some boxers have even challenged the former champion but got no response. While there is no official word from Golovkin approving his retirement, the circumstances seem to suggest the same. 

Amid all the talk of retirement, news of Golovkin’s new drink launching in Kazakhstan surfaced online. The clip shared by Boxing Kingdom revealed Golovkin tasting his new drink while posing for pictures during the launch. However, the twist in the story came when fans found the clip on X (former Twitter). Some fans quickly flocked to the comment section to remark about Golovkin’s physique. Others expressed their happiness with his new business venture.

Gennady Golovkin receives mixed responses from the boxing world

After the video went live on X, it quickly gathered nearly a million views and significant traction. The post collected a variety of responses. From kind and supportive remarks to questions regarding his physique.

One user boldly asserted besides tasting his new energy drink, ‘GGG’ seems to have indulged in a fair share of fast food, subtly hinting at his less athletic appearance. It’s worth mentioning that Golovkin has not fought in a while, and he turned 41 this year. Moreover, there are rumors of the boxer retiring, which should explain his physique. 

Another user confidently claims the Kazak boxer has gone into retirement. However, after Golovkin’s trilogy fight against Canelo, he boldly told TMZ Sports he doesn’t plan to retire. 

Someone else emphasized nobody can guess GGG is an elite-level boxer by looking at his current physique. However, it’s worth mentioning that weight cuts are nothing new for fighters. If Golovkin decides to make a comeback it would not take him long to lose the weight.

The next user seems to think Golovkin wants to mimic KSI and Logan Paul’s success with the Prime Energy drink. Even if the Kazak fighter had taken inspiration from KSI and Logan Paul, it’s not a bad idea because GGG is widely popular in Kazakhstan, and Prime isn’t available there. 

While other users commented about Golovkin’s physique, this user defended ‘GGG.’ The user reminded everyone in the comments talking about his physique that Golovkin is 41 years old. The user further advised others to let the boxer cherish his post-career years.

The boxing legend, once known for his skills in the ring, has entered into a new business venture with his energy drink. What’s more, the responses from his fans suggest that they have embraced the idea of ‘GGG’ retiring from the sport. What are your thoughts on the matter? Do you think Golovkin should return to boxing at the age of 41?
