    You need to look at it from both sides, if GGG wins big against Jacobs he's stock will go high. But if GGG somehow looses or doesn't look spectacular then his stocks will go down and the GGG/Canelo fight will not sell as much.

    As I repeatedly point out, there's a lot more than just the money split.

    It takes time to work out all the details, and nothing's going to be signed over the Christmas period. Nothing has been signed so far because K2 have been madly trying to finish the Jacobs deal.

    Let's be patient, there's no news here.

    :lol: They can and should sign now but you're so dead set against the idea like this is a paint by the numbers game. It can happen out of order so there's no excuse for ggg to not sign now if he wanted to and nothing is stopping him. Nobody should pretend (like you) that this has to happen in a certain order and ggg/loeffner focusing on Jacobs is irrelevant.
    Waiting until bad ppv numbers come in is a big risk and the next offer might be lower since ppv has been trending down. Which means the fight might not happen since it would need more time to "build" or some other excuse. Not a good look for fans who really want to see this matchup.

    This is going to turn out to be a really stupid move after Jacobs knocks his ass out. GGG will be lucky to get half of 15 mil then, and won't have a leg to stand on too demand more.

    If you're so certain of Jacobs winning, we can do a ban bet. Assuming you won't welch on it.

    I'm not dead set against it,nor am i pretending anything MUSt go a particular way. Learn to f*ckin read for goodness sake. All I'm saying is wait until Jacobs fight is over. Like I said, that's standard business operations for most of those in boxing. Get a f*ckin grip dude

    I'll make this so simple that even you can understand. Why should anybody consider that ggg has a fight already signed? That's not stopping him from signing another, contingent that he wins the first fight. That's what I'm talking about. No we don't have to consider that bull**** excuse.

    You said what you need too...now go ahead and f*ck off. I have nothing more to say to you on this topic, nor care for your "He needs to sign right now" garbage.

    Like I said, what they are doing is pretty much how everyone else in boxing does their business. Go troll someone else now.

    Remember when everyone was shitting on Mayweather for not signing to fight Canelo before Guerrero happened?

    That's obviously my opinion. ****, reading comprehension is so low I have to spell **** out ABCD for folks. Glad it's settled. ggg is not being prevented from making this fight which is what too many like to imply to help his case. They were doing it for ggg/Ward too since you're acting brand new. Fanboys out there pretending that fights are only signed for the immediate next fight. Like things have to happen in a certain order.

    Good on him. He needs to squeeze as much as he can get. It's still early days.
