    Funny thing about those links. The closest thing to a source they have is, "I was told..." or something in that vain. Basically it's a "he said" source.

    Don't quote me if you aren't going to actually address anything I posted. The "You guys" refers to you guys who act like this offer, which only has a source of sometime saying it BTW, has to be accepted. Sort of like the one you insisted he accept for 5 mill less.

    The thread title says GGG declines $15mil., so I assume its GGG doing the Duck Walk away from a fight he fears he'll lose.

    Oh yes I do think the offer has to be accepted. When a champion offers a challenger a career high payday and that challenger is considered the best in his division, damn right I want it accepted.

    Maybe there'll be other offers, but as a boxing fan I don't wanna wait to see if there are, I want the fight ASAP.

    Sorry, didn't get it the first time. It's funny how things changed in a couple of months.

    Naw it's triple BBB side cause he needs to understand that when it comes to fighting Canelo. Who said he had to agree to the terms, to completely turn down a offer without entertaining from the current cash cow of boxing doesn't seem smart. But he can do as he pleases his career. He's going to walk thru Jacobs, 8-1 favored vs his biggest test to date. Yes it'll get closer as the fight gets closer but so did floyd's fight. They still had no chance of beating Floyd. His fight ain't outselling Canelos worst so again let BBB SIDE turn down all the money he wants but he will get that versus no one. Canelo can

    Canelo isn't the champion. When you give up your world title and move to another weight class, you aren't the champ, even if you were lineal.

    Needs to understand? Yeah, asking for 40% REALLY shows they don't get that they are the B aside. Good post.

    Tell me this, who else is there that canelo can fight that will generate the same buzz or money as a 3G fight?

    Until he denounces his championship claim, he's the champion.

    He gave up his WBC belt, that's about it.

    He fought at LMW then said his next fight will be at 160 so hasn't left the division as of yet.

    I'm not sure tbh, I know my Mass but I've never measured my volume.

    He left the divisions though. You don't get to call "saves" on the title if you voluntarily leave the entire division and fight for a title in another weight class. Why does this need to be explained to boxing fans?!?
