    Didn't you predict 700k buys and now you are saying they will split 65+ million?
    That doesn't add up mate, they would have to do double that to make that money?

    50 million guarentee for Canelo sounds a little exaggeration. Maybe It's the predicted total purse for Canelo after the ppv cut, tv deals etc.

    There's going to be investors looking to double or triple their return, so no doubt there's going to be a lot of money in the pot. $50 mill sounds a little too much, but we'll see.

    Well these people you are talking about were probably relating it to the % which would in all likelyhood have amounted to less than 15 mill AFTER THE JACOBS fight, it's a flat fee of 15 mill which the people were saying was more than fair which looks like he accepted after all, even after all the GGG FANS were complaining that wasn't a fair deal. That said, we still don't know what the splits or monetary gain will be for both fighters, so everything is still premature.

    But I thought GGG was a big star in the U.K.

    He, not Brooks, sold 500k PPVs

    At least that's what been said

    This is true, these things were said by some of the Goons.

    I'm a big ggg fan but only an idiot would make such a stupid claim.

    This fight will sell around a million PPV's. That doesn't equal a 50 mil payday for anyone.

    I guest the last check was to pay the demand he lost in Miami against Tuto Zabala.

    This. Both are not Americans. The average sports fan doesn't give a rat's a$$ about Canelo or GGG.

    Canelo made a smart business decision leaving them and is now in line to make $50 mil

    He's just going to have to charge the 8 mil to the game and move on

    Fair deal. 15mil for GGG + ppv money good. Canelo is the A side and deserves the bigger pay day.
