    You're expecting parity?

    GGG is not an established PPV star. HBO wants to hype him up as some huge star with a Tyson like following, but the truth is the fans didn't pay to see his lone PPV fight.

    Canelo is the A side here.

    When Felix Trinidad fought Delahoya, he took the lesser end of a 75/25 split.
    Floyd Mayweather took home even less than that split to for the right to fight Delahoya.

    GGG nut riders have to accept the facts here. GGG is going to have to accept a miniscule amount in comparison to what Canelo will make as there is only one draw here and his name is Canelo Alvarez.

    You ggg clowns are already shaking in your boots and hoping that what GBP offers Golovkin is low enough to turn down.

    GGG wants to fight Canelo then he must bow down to the terms.
    Trinidad and Mayweather did to fight Delahoya, Juan Manuel Marquez bowed down to every single demand for the fight to fight Pacquiao in each of his fights with him.
    For fights 2,3, and 4, Juan Manuel Marquez took home far less than 25% of the fight purse.
    GGG will have to accept a similar cut or he wont be fighting Canelo.

    :lol::lol::lol: GGG fans shaking in their boots hopking GGG turns down the offer! :lol::lol::lol:

    Canelo is fighting in Mexico this September. He will vacate the WBC belt.

    Canelo is a bigger star and Golovkin should get less, but given the magnitude of this fight, with both the casuals and the die hards screaming for it, Golovkin shouldn't accept an insulting number. This isn't Lomachenko-Rigondeaux or Lomachenko-Walters.

    Just admit that Canelo doesn't want, has never wanted it, and will use the purse to kill the fight.

    GGG should call Canelos bluff then. But so far he has not.

    Agree, Golovkin should take any reasonable purse. It's not in his interest for Canelo to vacate.

    The signs I'm getting are that K2 are willing to accept a small slice of the pie to get the fight made.

    From what it sounds like Canelo no longer wants it at 155 as it was killing his body. He said in the post fight interview that he has no problem with 160

    The purse should be "winner take all"

    The fair purse should be 60/40 for Canelo, but i'd accept as low as 80/20 if I was K2. Golovkin will dictate the terms from the day of the fight on.

    Isn't this exactly what you said for 155?

    As much as it pains me to say it, I agree with this. 155 is BS but fighting at 160, it would be in GGG's best interest to accept. I would say it has to be a reasonable offer though...
