    BJS is never worth anything more than $200k in the first place.

    I never saw you ask that before, but since I saw it this time, I think rematches with Eubank Jr and Lee can earn him some nice paydays. And if he can land the Canelo fight before Golovkin gets to him, those 3 fights would combine for a very nice sum of money.

    Will he land those fights? I don't know. But as a champion, I think he can string some fairly safe title defenses together for between 500k-1m a pop.

    He's not getting a million a fight each unless it's against good level opponents and he'll still be risking losses. Moreover, it's not like he will cease to exist as a boxer, he'll be able to add onto his 3.2 million afterwards, perhaps even gain in popularity if he's able to give a good account of himself in the fight.

    Now of course you can say that he can just fight GGG afterwards but who's to say GGG will be an option after 3-4 fights. I think it was a silly thing to do if money is what you are after, I'd have just taken this.

    Saunders does not want to be KOed. can make good money at less risk. Facing GGG could be the end of his career.best keep away.

    Exactly, seems like a load of what ifs just to potentially equal the number, why not take what's guaranteed and easy.

    His team is desperate because every decent or half decent opponent ducks him, you know that, moron.

    Hhmmm.. so now you think now that BJS should take the offer and fight GGG ?

    Last week... as I recall... you didn't think that was such a "good idea" !

    I tend to agree with your "reasoning" on most posts.... just glad to see you are open to change.

    ;)

    There's only 1 reason

    Cuz he knows he can't draw. So he needs that British money. :lol:

    BJS will get paid more. :hi::hi::hi:

    BJS can't draw. Golovkin will draw more in any place of the world including England.

    Yeah, with 97k PPV buys. :rofl

    There's a REASON he's offering 3.2 million. Golovkin only made 2m in his last fight. :yep

    Fact is: Golovkin can't draw as well as Billie Joe Saunders. :lol:
