    Hi,

    I was wondering why is it that two sides took that long make a fight? 2 months of
    negotiations well enough time for both camps to agree to terms. Do you really need
    to wait that long?

    Hi Sponge,

    They have an understanding they'll fight in May, according to Loeffler. Plenty of time to work out details and Bitchnelo is not in any hurry. Plus there was a rematch clause in the old contract, so it's not like they are starting from scratch.

    Gbp wanted to wait for the result from lemme and bjs. No idea what for besides giving them their own excuse for not fighting the only fight that matters which is ggg # 2.

    I'd be more than as little upset if odh feels the need to fight any other fight. Ggg should tell them where to stick it, IF THEY believe any fight other than ggg 2 matters what so ever

    Oscar lied to Golovkin, they plan to fight the winner of Lemieux/Saunders, they tricked Golovkin into believing there would be a rematch! Golovkin wanted to fight El Pollo in Dec., but fishnet Oscar refused! Now Golovkin had not fight! Osar wants the fight when Golovkin is 40 years old as long as Golovkin does not fight until them, no tuneup fights in between!
