    Not this **** again.

    Did you girls see the contract? What other stipulations were on this contract? Canelo catch weight of 156? All the PPV and gate money? I want to hear his promoter back that up. For all we know Oscar whispered sweet nothing into Canelo's ear.

    If there was anything at all credible to this Oscar would have been all over it. Oscar has been hell bent on Canelo reputation. Not hearing a peep from Oscar says more than anything.

    And I have no reason to doubt Canelo. GGG priced himself out it seems, so who's ducking who? Lol

    Double or triple of an originally low ball offer - with ZERO split - is still a low offer.

    If I offer you 1 out of 10 dollars and then offer "ok, you can have 2 or 3 and i will keep the other 7 or 8" that is still not a good offer.

    Max asked the right questions. The walls are closing in on Los Pollos Hermanos.

    Of course, that's why Canelo dropped his title at 160 and went and fought Liam Smith at 154.

    Some of you are beyond trolls, there is not a word I'm allowed to type on here to describe some of you.

    The fact is, the fight was there for Canelo and he ducked Golovkin, actions speak louder than words.

    2 or 3 times his career high payday is what stands out me. Ggg turned him down.

    Of course they haven't. This is the Margarito hype-train of 2006 all over again. This type of marketing isn't new in Boxing and has existed since forever yet people still fall for it easily just as long as the hype job sports an engaging fighting style. If anything, Brook exposed Golovkin. A blown up Welterweight stunned him in the first round and was landing with ease due to Golovkin's one-dimensional face first fighting style.

    Of course that is all you will look at cause that is all you care about. Not that the contract could have been turned down for other reason ( if one even existed). Like having to fight at 156 when he is defending a 160lb belt. Not getting any of the PPV and gate slice that he is helping sell.

    Yep, tells me exactly what you see and and that you only see what benefits fighters you like.

    He wants to negotiate, that's the thing. He's not getting 45% of nothing, he's got 3 belts but his best win is a against a WW. He's going to have to learn real quick, Canelo is the marquee name on the billboard, and with that he's going to have to take that flat fee, or go fight Keith Thurman next..

    Canelo vacated 5 days after beating Cotto, even before it was going to hit purse bid. There for he got his WBC strap, now he's chasing the payday, and from what we know now. He turned it down, not once, twice, but 3x...

    Not arsed about the he said she said. This is just like Ward saying they offered Golovkin a 50/50, has the proof but wont show it. I'm more inclined to call bull**** when you're adamant this happend, have the "proof" But wont show. Zzzzzzzz.

    Sounds like BS. I'm sure GGG will have an answer to that and Tom Loeffler will have proof.
