    Yes, GGG deserves 10M as purse, the PPV share is the problem.

    GGG cannot wait that long, it has to happen next year and it is not his fault if the fight does not happen.

    F*ck Canelo...Let the Girl fight Golovkins leftovers and see how His Fan base slip's.....Golovkin has 3 Middleweight Belts and Canelo has zero after getting on his knees and handing it to GGG.....Fight should be on Golovkins terms because he is the Champion....These losers screaming for Golovkin to take a low ball offer know nothing about Boxing.!!!!

    Nah, Canelo is a casual favorite. Maybe the hardcore boxing fans my feel some sort of way but the casual fans(women) still flock to his fights. That fight with Smith sold 250k. Who the hell is Liam Smith?
    People still bought it so Canelo holds the highest PPVs for 2016 and sold the most tickets. I'm not saying it's right, but I will say that Canelo holds all the cards in the business aspect. He no longer has the belt so why is GGG still chasing him?

    If the Fight is not 60/40 and i concede Canelo's way....If I was Golovkin I would tell Canelo to F*ck Off....if a Fighter who has 3 belts is not worth %40..the game is well and truly F*cked.!!!!

    If GGG tells canelo to **** off, that will be better for the sport and himself, providing he seek challenges up north

    Let's be honest with ourselves now.

    When has a belt been bigger than the Superstar??? Please tell me, because the next WBO 147 fight the challenger is making $20 million dollars and the champion will be lucky with $3 million

    Mayweather fought Mosley 147 WBA champ, Cotto 154 WBA champ, Ortiz 147 WBC champ, Canelo 154 WBC/WBA champ, and Pacquiao 147 WBO champ and made more than all of them. The first 3 he had no belt at all in the division.

    Tyson fought Bruno for his belt after prison and made $30 million.
    You see the trend?

    Broner made more money than Paulie when they fought .

    Pacquiao made more than Cotto when they fought for the WBO.

    Supersatars make the belts not the other way around.

    Your argument would be all fine and dandy if Ggg had Canelo's resume quality and Canelo Ggg's pathetic resume.

    The fact is that the man with 1 belt has fought several top quality and even elite fighters while the man with 3 belts has one of the worst resumes for a 7 year titlist.

    Ah, once again you are right and wrong.

    Hagler basically gave up his belts to fight Sugar Ray Leonard for the money.
    Leon Spinks gave up his WBA belt he won from Ali to rematch Ali for money.
    Riddick Bowe...no need to elaborate on him.
    Hell the first Fight of The Century was about the money more than the belt with Jim Jeffries vs Jack Johnson.

    There is no day where money was not important since it's inception.

    Resume is meaningless here, as the only elite fighter Canelo faced, he got beat like a pinata.

    You can hand pick all you like and come up with a few examples...back then there was only 1 belt and 1 World Champion each Division.....for that reason Belt's were more important
    It's just your opinion....Canelo Fought Mayweather and got a spanking from an old Man....Many very good judges think Golovkin would TKO Floyd....so it's a subjective thing...I for one Think if GGG V Canelo fight ever happens Golovkin win's by TKo obviously you think Different....Hopefully in 2017 when the Fight happens one of Us will be proven Wrong...as for Resume's Lemieux and Munroe will give Canelo heaps of Problems if He fights them and they are on Golovkin's destroyed list....

    I say this with no bias, your arguments are based on things that are not real.

    The reality is that today there is not just 1 belt like in the vintage era. Now there are 4 major belts, causing their worth to greatly depreciate, especially when you consider all the corruption and controversy surrounding them. So your first point is void. Holds no water.

    Your judges you speak of can declare to the world that Ggg will wreck Alvarez, based on Saul losing to Floyd who would get KO by Gennady according to you or them, but the harsh reality for many hardcore Ggg fanatics is that he hasn't fought Alvarez, nor Floyd, nor any top level dominant fighter.
    Claiming that he can KO and beat Floyd, Canelo, all the SMWs, and all the LHWs doesn't mean he's earned those accolades.

    Of course you would say Lemieux and Monroe level fighter would give Canelo fits.. As ridiculous as it is. Again, the reality is that just because a fighter can win a vacant title, it doesn't mean he's world level. You base boxers ability on performance, and quality of opponent.

    I can't wait for 9/17, I can never say with certainty that X fighter will definitely win, especially when both are world level, but I'm fairly confident Saul will beat Golovkin for many reasons. Canelo is a younger hungry fighter, he is in his prime and will be more prime come Sept., his actual boxing skill set is more diverse and higher than Golovkin. Golovkin likely punches harder than Canelo, but slower. Canelo thrives against come forward fighters. Canelo has superior defense and gets hit clean less often than his opponents. Canelo use feints extremely well against come forward fighters. Canelo is the faster, the more explosive, and patient fighter. He's landing on Golovkin more than Golovkin on him that's for sure.
