Golovkin, Jacobs Running Out of Time - Purse Bid Looms

You're looking at the split between a "champion in recess" and an "interim" champ.

Einstein.

 

No they weren't.

 

I know what is says. The person who can't read (or add, or do basic searches, or who won't accept an honest answer) is you.

YES. THE WBA can change its rules any time at anyone's request. Everywhere in the WBA's rules and the WBC's and the IBF's and the WBO's includes verbage along the lines of "but we can change this at the Chairman's request."

We will DEMAND A DEFENSE ... unless the Chairman changes his mind. We DEMAND A PURSE BID ... but we'll call it off if the Chairman changes his mind. They all write their rules that way and always have. That's the whole point.

If you think anything is set in stone you're wrong.

Nothing is set in stone.

 

No **** they can change. You were asked when it's actually been done. You're examples didn't prove anything, other then you are mistaken as to what a purse bid is.

 

What are you talking about? I provided numerous examples. They are everywhere. You can't even read the WBA rules correctly.

According to you, an "interim" WBA champ gets a higher percentage than a "regular" champ. I know the WBA is confusing, but don't lecture people if you don't know what the hell you're talking about.

It goes Super champ, regular champ, interim champ. If a super champ fights a regular champ, nothing is set in stone. Their own rules say it's not set in stone. They state the rule, then they say they or the chairman can change the rule if they feel like it or if there's a "special circumstance."

You ask a question. I answer it. You change the question. I answer it. Then you insult me.

Yes. Before a purse bid takes place, in the WBA, you can ask for a different purse split. Has it been done? Yes. Look at all the WBA purse bids. You can ask them to change the split before a bid. You can ask them to change the split after they announce the date of the bid but it hasn't occurred yet. You can ask for a delay in the bid. You can in all the orgs. They can say yes. They can so no. It's becoming rarer for fighters to enter the ring after a purse bid where there is a 75-25 split. Because it's not set in stone.

There's the answer. For some reason, that simple answer set you off.

I hate to break it to you, but there is no Santa Claus or an Easter Bunny and the WBA rules (or the WBC's or the IBF's or the WBO's) for purse splits aren't set in stone. Never have. Never will. They write into their rules they can change the rule when they feel like changing it.

 

If you take nothing else from this conversation, I hope you've grasped the concept that 63 +10 isn't more than 75.

Dummy.

 

What a crock of garbage. You haven't even provided an example of a purse bid being changed for a fighter.

 

Maybe that's because you haven't figured out how to click on a link. Here's one. Paulus Moses was the WBA lightweight champ. He won the title in January 2009. He defended the title in July 2009. The same month, July 2009, the WBA decided to it needed more sanctioning fees so it named a vacant interim lightweight title fight the same month and Miguel Acosta won the interim belt. Then the WBA announced that Moses had to defend against his mandatory Acosta. They couldn't come to an agreement. There was a purse bid. Moses (as champ) received 55 percent. Acosta, as challenger, received 45 percent. The link is above.

That's not 75-25.

Do I have to type them all out for you like this? Because I'm not. Search for them yourself.

 

Wrong! Plenty of people want to fight him GGG and fans like you just don't want him to fight those people.

 

Not the WBA it's not. The "regular" champ isn't listed as the number one contender. The regular champ is above interim champs.

Interim champs get ELEVATED to regular champs in the WBA. Not the other way around.

I wouldn't hold that against you normally, but you were so quick with the personal insults.

So f*ck off idiot.

I'm done with this.
