GBP offers Jacobs 80/20 split

I'd be surprised if there was a rehydration clause, both will come in at LHW(168.1-175.0) if not at cruiser (175.1+).

 

Your...casual credentials are showing *****

 

Anyone who claims Jacobs is being short-changed with that offer is simply clueless.

A little perspective here:

Chavez Jr purse vs Canelo was 3 Mill.
Khan's purse vs Canelo was 2 mill.
Canelos purse vs FLoyd was 5 mill.
Cotto's purse vs FLoyd was 8 Mill. .....just to name a few.

All these guys were considered bigger names and had a bigger following than Jacobs.

Jacob's claim to fame is doing pretty good vs GGG.

It's a damn good offer and one that he will more than likely never see again.

 

Those are all just the guarantees. Once the full gate, TV & ppv money came the fighters you mentioned made a lot more money.

I don't know the exact number for Chavez Jr, but I believe he got about 20%
Khan ended up with more like 10 million
Canelo got at least 4 times that against Floyd in the end.
Cotto got 35% against Floyd overall.

Your point actually still stands (although it's somewhat overstated), but I'm a stickler for accuracy hence the corrections above.

 

Cotto purse against canelo 15mil

 

Lol that’s not an offer,that’s an offer he knows Hearn won’t let Jacobs take

 

I think HW. 200+

 

What in a non title fight against Jacobs,has the world gone mad?

 

Canelo's purse against Cotto 7 million

 

Haha lol. Now that gives me a GREAT idea.

What about Anthony Joshua vs Canelo Alvarez? The two biggest stars collide, that'll make tons of money!!!

 

I don't follow your math. 10 million at 20% would be cut out of a 50 million dollar pot.

 

I mean cotto. He was an a side. His purse was 15mil

 

Why not.. According to GGGoons Canelo is a HW shrinking down to MW

 

Im sure Canelo was the A side. Thats just the price Canelo had to pay to get Cotto to agree to fight him.
