Golovkin wants more than 12 million to fight Canelo?

This thread is idiotic. Noone knows for sure if these reports from Golden Boy are true.

 

All I have to say is that MICHAEL JORDAN brand picked GGG and not Canelo! That to me says a lot. I think only 5 or 6 athletes have ever been picked to be part of that elite group! I'm just stating a fact

 

Mosley was never a draw. He was always the B side but a respected B side. And when he fought Floyd Black, his popularity after stopping Margarit... more than him being a draw got him that payday. And that was a pretty good payday even when the split was big.

GG might be able to accept the split, but not 155 lbs. I wouldn't advise my fighter to do that under no circumstances. Especially after that man dropped his title.

 

But, but, but I thought GGG fights for belts, titles and honor. That's what they have been saying, money is not a problem. Now you know why Canelo dropped the belt, it's about having the edge at negotiation.

 

ggg isn't a draw, 97k ppv, don't forget about that. Canelo would bring in the fans and would get compensated accordingly.

 

The fact you believe a word Canelo & Oscar say proves you haven't got a clue
Even his ex Mexican fans call him a cowardly liar.
GGG is the A side in any future negociations anyway
GGG is unbeaten has DESTROYED every opponent he faced
P0llo was embarassed by Mayweather, & arguably lost to both Lara & Trout
GGG doesn't need Piggy Pollo he has nothing he wants

 

I heard Canelo-Smith had 75 PPV buys. ROFLMAO

 

He will. I acknowledge that. But he can't do 70-30 and 155 lbs. Can't happen. He's fighting a guy who has 3 of the 4 belts and one of them Canelo gave to him. He has to make the fight and give GG a reasonable amount. He has to to get back his respect. The tide will shift if the fight is made trust me.

 

Mofo all you know is B and C side. You're a ****en Margarito fan. We are discussing draws, not guys who never won an elite fight without using plaster.

 

Exactly. ALl of a sudden GGG's accountants are coming out of the woodworks.

 

Mosley was coming off a good win but wasn't seen as the man in the division. Floyd was. Mayweather was the betting favourite as will be Golovkin. He also holds the straps for whatever you think they're worth.

Alvarez brings... lots of fans and a dubious lineage. Fair enough he's the a/side but Golovkin is far from a Mosely-sequel b/side in this fight.

 

THe offer has been made public and GGG's side has not denied it.

 

Who says he can't do 70/30? Comparing ppv numbers, ggg does less than 30% and Canelo has leverage. ggg needs Canelo but not vice versa. The Mexican machismo isn't a factor outside of hardcore boxing fans which is relatively small compared to casuals. I guess we'll just have to disagree on this one and it's up to ggg if he wants to raise his profile. Canelo is already at the top of the sport.

 

They haven't found a way to spin it yet. They are reading fanboards and social media right now.

 

He could've waited to see if GG forced a purse bid. I don't know if he waited that long-correct me if I'm wrong. Now while this might surprise a few, I would've sided with Canelo if GG forced a purse bid and Canelo dropped the belt.

When Povetkin said that he would've loved to fight Wilder in America, his promoter had other ideas. Scumbag promoter all along wanted Povetkin to get a title shot in his backyard. I would've been ok with Wilder dropping the title too and he didn't.

Purse bids used to be for fights that needed a purse bid. Promoters are calculating things, doing the math and forcing unnecessary purse bids. And I hate that ****. That's why I only recognize the lineal champion. Too many titles.
