    WBA has cancelled the bid?
    Not even sure what you're trying to say.

    That's not what the article said. The article said that Jacobs camp is dragging out negotiations and so there wouldn't be time for a decent training camp before a December fight. Golovkin wants to fight in December and fighting Jacobs, possibly for low money wouldn't make financial sense if it cost him the money he could have made on another fight while negotiations get dragged out.

    Loefler already asked for things to go to a purse bid to try and speed things up, then Jacobs said that he wanted to fight someone else before fighting GGG. It's not GGG's team that's scared of a purse bid. They asked for one. It's Jacobs team who wants more money.

    GGG doesn't want to grow old never fighting anybody, never making any money, while Jacobs, Eubanks, Canelo, and Saunders try to find their pens. He's not going to wait patiently on the sidelines like Klitschko did all year waiting for Tyson Fury.

    It's very likely to happen next year now, we will just have to be patient.

    I don't think you can expect Team Golovkin to just give Jacobs more money to make this move a little more quickly or every potential opponent will do that same thing, drag it out, make things awkward and tire negotiations because they believe if they do they will eventually get a better deal.

    The splits are done, Jacobs gets 25%, WBA ruling. It's just down to purse bids, so yes I agree it's frustrating but Team Jacobs was offered 25% and point blank refused the deal, they wanted more money pretty much knowing that's all he was going to get anyway, so they dragged this out, they slowed the negotiations.

    I'm sure Team Golovkin are not completely without blame but they always knew the WBA ruling was there if they went purse bid route and that's what the splits would end up being at worst so it's hard to see what they are pushing for or why they would make the negotiations drag on. I'm sure there are some reasons but I can't think of many.

    Jacobs doesn't get 25% unless it goes to a purse bid. He asked for the purse bid split to be modified but the WBA turned him down. That doesn't mean he gets 25% no matter and he can still negotiate for a bigger split until the purse bid happens. I wish it would go to a purse bid and end this drama.

    This is why I call it Boxing politics. It's quite literally politics. This latest news is ggg's team trying to spin their latest ****ery trying to deflect from them not wanting to make this fight.

    I don't think he is worth that much either. But in order for the fight to happen they either need to pay Jacobs a percentage he is comfortable with so the fight van be on HBO or it needs to go to a purse bid and run the risk of the fight not being on HBO.

    Good Lord: This entitled, race and cancer card playing diva turned down 1.7 million and the fight in his own back yard? DISGUSTING!

    i hope he never gets a big fight, ever again. Enjoy fighting Don George in a barn in Amish country next for 50 K you coward Jacobs. I am sure human garbage like Moanamchara and Shockmaster will blame that on GGG as well.

    He is basically saying Golovkin is not the same colour as Floyd Mayweather, therefore he doesn't like him

    I'm white. Nice try.
    I have been reiterating the same points over and over because morons like yourself have zero reading comprehension skills. But hey you and your buddy agree that making up another posters race gives you a leg up on an anonymous boxing forum. Good for you please keep winning on the internet.

    I would love for the WBA to enforce a purse bid. If they cannot negotiate the terms in 120 days it needs to go to a purse bid. This is why we have purse bids. Unfortunately Loeffler doesn't want it to go to a purse bid because he doesn't like the risk involved. Jacobs probably doesn't want it to go to a purse bid because he will get 25%. Too bad its not like their close to coming to an agreement. Let the purse bid happen assume the risk and let Jacobs get 25% or if he vacates 25% of nothing. Do you understand now?

    Loeffler pushed the date because there's no deal in place.
    Moving the date does not move the bid date, quit being stupid.
