    If they give Saunders that money then every Middle Weight from 154-168 will want that type of money to fight Golovkin. For the sake of business K2 better re-coupe if they make this fight.

    GGG is going to have to become a lot more vocal and attract the attention needed for him to get people to either love or hate him. Either way it sells.

    Good luck to him if they offer that type of money now. It will definitely get people to ease up and fight him, but at a cost they can't afford.

    I think the thinking behind it is if they get all the belts by the end of the year then people will have to face him or they can't win a title, creating a sort of bottleneck. They won't have to pay that to any other fighter after this because they will have all the titles by the end of the year and no one will have leverage. Then GGG can defend his belt 4-5 times a year and make money

    Where's the source?

    K2 ain't paying Billy no 5 mill.

    When was this type of money offered to Jacobs? He has a belt and is a lot more known than Saunders.

    Nobody knows who Saunders is in the States. 5 mill for a non PPV fight against somebody nobody ever heard of and will likely do average numbers??

    Wake up son.

    It's in the negotiation contract and it will be held in the U.K. so that Sauders can draw the crowd.

    Saunders isnt some big time draw.

    Saunders could walk down the street in Hatfield and barely be recognised.

    gmurphy is very accurate with his line of thinking . Once GGG has all the belts, it's either fight him or leave his division.

    This way, he'll be a much bigger name than he already is and will have a great run getting paid bugtime.

    He'll get 75% of every fight with talent all around him making his run even greater. Once he's established to the casuals like he already is with true hardcore fans as the current p4p king, fights with the Charlo bros, Lara and a rematch with canelo.. he'll be the man.

    Eventually, it'll be GGG vs Kovalev that everybody is calling for. I'm already calling for it, but I fully understand the unfinished business he has at mw.. many a great fighters will be blown out by trip G's

    He'll be 34 in April. For all those fights to happen,. he'll have to stay fighting about 4 times a year until he retires

    How many fighters are out there who wouldn't take a fight for that sum of money? I mean pound for pound.

    He doesn't GGG is the wba champion . jacobs is no more than what I'd call a mandatory.

    Look at the wba at heavyweight, they had a new regular champion almost every year after wlad beat the new one they found. How come wlad didn't get to keep the wba regular belt? Fact is if GGG beat jacobs it woudlnt even matter because the wba would have a new regular champion a few weeks later. That's how its not a real belt
