    LOL.. You're so full of it.

    You ever wonder why Ggg's side hasn't counter offered? Doesn't it even spark your curiousity?

    10 mil plu PPV is a hell of a deal, if GGG blows this opportunity yet again, the pattern will be clear as day, K2 has no intentions on putting him up against elite world level opposition, and will probbaly be content milking the british and euro fans with his regional level opponents.

    So you think Canelo is going to bank 100 million? so screw GBP, the investors, HBO, all the sponsors, right? Let's just give it all to Canelo! That makes sense..:bash:

    GGG has the option to accept or decline Golden Boys offer and he declined it. That's a fact.

    You don't beleive GGGs cut of $10m would be far less than Canelo's then?

    Like I said earlier, GGG has been offered the crumbs while Canelo expects to walk away with the cake.

    GGG claims he isn't about the money and that he wants the big fights so why is he so difficult to get a fight with?

    10 million is extraordinary money for a bloke from Kazakhstan

    Ward and Kovalev won't get near that for their fight!

    I think Canelo gets a 25-30 mill guarentee, which is fair because he has the Lineal MW title, the better resume, better PPV buyrate against domestic level opposition, larger gate attendances/revenue, bigger fanbase, and made concessions to star fighters by taking way less money, and now it's his turn to call the shots.. GGG needs to take a page out of Canelo's book on how to make the big fights happen.

    There's a very good reason for that. Ward vs Kovalev won't make anywhere near as much money as GGG vs Canelo would.

    Canelo might make 30-40mill at a maximum, that's my opinion, most likely 25 million

    @ 40 mill it's a 80-20 split
    @30 mill it's a 75-25 split
    @25 mill that's near 70-30 split

    All seem very reasonable to me, don't you think?

    Canelo can make a big fight happen here by making an acceptable offer.

    First of all its not Canelo making the offer, it's GBP. And 10 mill + PPV is more than fair. Why does GGG deserve more than a 10 mill guarantee?

    Why is GGG only entitled to the crumbs when Canelo would walk away with the cake?

    He's earned it, that's why. He took 5 mill for Floyd and 6.5 For Cotto, but GGG WON'T take 10 mill? Why? Who has he beaten that makes his guarantee not enough? I keep asking this, but nobody can answer it.

    GGG owns the 160 pound division. We all know that, and he won't settle for the crumbs. Nor should he be expected to.

    Who's his best wins? And he doesn't own the MW division, that's a huge overstatement!
