Saul Canelo Alvarez has given up on negotiating a rematch against middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin, and instead, they’re now looking to put together a fight against former IBF 160lb champion Daniel Jacobs for September 15, says Oscar De La Hoya.
Golovkin wouldn’t back down from the 50-50 purse split that he was asking for to face the Golden Boy promoted Canelo Alvarez (49-1-2, 34 KOs).
