I never announced my retirement - Gennady Golovkin

Gennady Golovkin may put on boxing gloves again and return to the ring, Kazinform News Agency reports.

In an interview with Boxingscene.com, the Head of Kazakhstan's National Olympic Committee said he had never announced his retirement.

“I never announced my retirement. Time will show. Now I have tasks, I love what I am doing. At the same time, life means movement for me. If I see a serious challenge comes my way, and I see that this is a good way to switch gears, and if I see it is a good way to adjust my path or my movement, perhaps I will accept this challenge. So there might be another fight with me,” he said.

The last time the world-famous professional boxer entered the ring was in the fall of 2022, when he lost to Mexican Saúl Álvarez by a decision of judges.

Earlier, Gennady Golovkin shared his expectations of the Kazakh athletes' participating in the upcoming 2024 Summer Olympic Games in Paris.
