    Canelo beats Jacobs pretty easily, it's a worse match-up for Danny than it is Canelo. I'd still love to see it.

    I don't want to see Saunders vs Canelo.. that has **** fight written all over it.

    I am quite shocked that they went above 40%... :shocked: This is just crazy... GGG would have accepted 40%...

    By offering 42.5% Oscar has proved that they are really desperate to get GGG. I would say Golovkin should continue to demand 50% at this point... :shocked:
    He will get 45% at least, lol.

    GGG hasn't priced himself out of any fight and has only turned down other fights so that he gets the biggest payday of his career when he fights Canelo in the rematch. Again, why in the world would GGG fight another sub-par opponent and risk losing the biggest payday of his career? Canelo certainly isn't going to do it. GGG fought Vanes strictly to stay busy.

    Because he's a multimillionaire and should at least back up the hype.

    What has GGG's biggest and almost only criticism has been, that his resume is poor. He's finally getting the opportunity to back up his hype but it seems his entire career revolves around Canelo. Id like to see GGG against Derevyanchenko, or Saunders, Id love to see the Jacobs rematch, and of course Canelo too, but Martirosyan, Brook?

    Well, Canelo did face Trout and Lara when no one expected him to.
    Heck, he even fought Golovkin and Mayweather.

    Tbf I don't think Canelo will fight ten hopeless bums if this fight doesn't come off. There's talk of Jacobs or BJS neither of which aren't hopeless imo.

    You're not making sense. If GGG beats down Derevyanchenko how will that win stack up against many of his other wins? A guy who'll be 12-1 and has no notable wins.
