The celebrity boxing fad has taken over the combat sports world by storm. The likes of the Paul brothers and several other renowned social media stars have turned to boxing as a source of generating massive pay-per-view revenue. Considering GGG’s name value and the money these celebrity bouts are drawing, Khabib Nurmagomedov’s advice may be worth looking into for the veteran boxer.

Nurmagomedov gave his take on how GGG would fare against world-class boxers at 39-years of age. ‘The Eagle’ opined that Golovkin shouldn’t fiddle with the idea of fighting boxers such as Canelo Alvarez anymore. The Dagestani fighter, who has ardently supported Golovkin over the years, said that GGG is way past his prime to compete against elite boxers.
