Golovkin, Jacobs Running Out of Time - Purse Bid Looms

Do you even understand what's going on here?

3G isn't asking for more money. Them purse bids are 75-25 to the champ, that's 3G. It's Jacobs who's wanting more. f*ckin moron....

 

There's a story on SecondsOut right now about the Hopkins-Carl Daniels purse split, and the mandatory Daniels got 4% and Hopkins got 96%.

 

I just told you. Can't you read? Hell, it happened this year. See the Wilder-Povetkin purse bid. It took place in February. Is SEVEN MONTHS too far back for you to remember?

 

But that weren't purse bids where the sanctioning body changed the split on request of one if the camps. That's a huge difference

 

Do you understand what an actual Purse-bid is? Appears you do not.

 

Povetkin's team requested a change in the split before the bid. So did C00ney. So did Tyson. And on and on.

 

I've been watching boxing before you were born. The fights I mentioned I actually watched live and followed beforehand ... I didn't watch them on YouTube.

 

There was a WBC change in their purse bid policy before this took place. What Jacobs wants isn't a policy change, but a change for this particular purse-bid. They're different.

 

Then you must be a terribly slow learner.

 

Was that change in the policy before the Wilder-Povetin fight, the Wilder-Stiverne fight, the Holmes-C00ney fight, the Tyson-Bruno I & II fights.

Are you talking about the WBA? The Wlad-Fury purse split was 80% for the champ and 20% for the mando last year. Did they change this year or did Wlad insist on getting more before the bid? (I'm pretty sure he insisted on getting more before the bid.)

 

Klitschko-Pulev is one example but that came from the champ not the challenger.
Pules was supposed to get 25% but Wlad asked IBF for 80-20 split and they granted it.

 

That seems to be a WBC thing. IBF is strictly 75-25 I believe. I don't think the WBc changed it for anyone in particular.
