Canelo: $15M Is More Than Golovkin Deserves. Take it or Leave it.

Hey Genius, there is no fight without first having some negotiations.

1 + 1 = 2

 

Canelo the A side

 

Bumlovkin will be 35 in April. There is no "long run". His career will likely be over within the next 2-3 years. They need to make the big money fight NOW while it's still available. If Alvarez loses before Bumlovkin gets his turn, that $15 mil dollar payday evaporates into thin air. The Triple Duck can't make that kind of coin anywhere else...

 

agreed...if theres any "long run" in golovkins career it wont be good...because he'll end up getting worked more than once.....

if canelo loses ggg could prob chase whoever beats him...but it wont be nearly as lucrative.....

 

Where are the *OFFICIAL* PPV #s, Genius?

 

Damn good question.

Are any of the resident Bumlovkinite nut huggers up to giving us an answer???

 

Shhhhhh.

Don't tell the Bumlovkinites that. They'll yell and call you crazy.

Lol..

 

No doubt.

I wouldn't be surprised if Jacobs clowns his ass...

 

I don't think 3G is complaining about the 15 mill. They just have a fight to focus on.

 

You still keep dodging the question if the take there ppv numbers and did that like they wanted to do Manny and Floyd. Would you consider that fair a neutral firm did the numbers.

15 million for a easy night, take the money.

 

I didn't realize you were trying to get an answer out of me. But I guess I'll entertain that.

For starters, that idea worked for Floyd and manny because both guys were huge draws, pulling up to a mill buys in their PPV prime.

And you want to use the last three for each? Well, you know already 3G has only been a part of two PPV's so far. So....now what? Just going to go by his two?

If we go back to Canelo's last two, 300K and 600K, that's an average of 450K buys his last two fights. With 3G, that's 150K and 500K, for an average of 325K his last two. 450K to 325k. Not too bad I suppose.

But that idea of using a firm, or arbitrator, doesn't work for every situation. Floyd and Oscar didn't use one when they fought. And floyd's purse went from 8mill and 350K buys to 26mill, and 2 mill buys. So how in the world could floyd's purse go from 8 mill to 26 mill and 350K buys to 2 mill buys? I'll tell you.

Because of the match-up. A fight is more than just the sum of its parts. Together it takes a life of it's own. That's why having a big partner is so important to the buys. Canelo versus an established fighter will always sell more then Canelo versus another beefy smith level fighter. Just like Floyd's numbers took a dive when he didn't have an attractive opponent.

Now...what does thast have to do with 3G /Canelo? Well, it's just to show that prior purses or PPV buys aren't the be all, end all, of a fighters worth.

Anyway, sorry if that was a little long winded, or 'slightly' off topic. But it was apt.

 

Without a doubt the Gaylovetards are the slowest fans in boxing.
