not much..nor has GG Ward or Froch would make GG a good payday. Maybe it's time he "challenged himself"....
Calm down. He said to kazakh media that the numbers that were announced is not true. GGG: "The numbers that were announced is far from the truth. Media wrote that I received $300-350K for the last fight. But, HBO makes more money just from the tickets! I understand that the numbers come from the U.S. media, but they must be joking, or they hide from taxes. And it's all being discussed, even my friends called me to say that I'll get $300K per fight, while Macklin $350K. I usually answer - stop counting other people's money."
I just want to see him stay busy, of course i would like to see him face quillin, Murray,sturm or vera.
GGG weighs around about the same as most 154 lbs on fight night, GGG weighs 168 lbs. Ortiz weighed 164 lbs against Floyd and he fights at 147 lbs, Canelo and Trout weigh more than GGG. Wouldn't mind GGG moving up too 168 lbs as not many top rated middle weights want to fight GGG. He would be giving up size to most super middle weights but he would struggle less to get the big fights.
So what if he gives up size...the Jr MW's he picks on give up size. Ya'll hate Floyd but he gives up size all the time....why can't the great GG??
I'm a Floyd fan, the fact he gives up weight in almost every fight is why he is rated so highly. Most of those jr middleweights he fight are probably the same weight as GGG on fight night. Floyd has the skill to gave up weight and still win, I think GGG could do well at 168 lbs but his power would be less effective against the top super middle weights. He would still do well but I think Ward and Froch beat him, but he would probably gave both tough fights.
I doubt the jr middles are the same weight as GG. You're reaching...for what...I don't know. I just can't see the hype over a 31 y/o fighter who's best win is Mathew Macklin. All the guys that can punch are supposed to be scared but the featherdusters are lined around the block.....I ain't buying it.
$300k was the initial offer. The initial offer is hardly ever accepted. Stevens has some juice right now. He's not simply an opponent. I don't see Main Events accepting this fight at this time unless the offer is substantial.
Team Stevens is still pretending to be considering the offer but in effect wasting everyone's time, I see. Stevens has much in common with Mrs Pibb. They are both a waste of our collective time.
Team Stevens should just let GGG's team start looking for someone who actually wants the fight and the payday/exposure. Instead of extending their time in the spotlight and vainly attempting to spin their cowardly actions to appear reasonable in the fickle court of public opinion.
GG is another one of your imported heroes... Cowardly is 7 years as a pro...31 years old...and Mathew Macklin is the best fighter in all that time. THAT is cowardly.
