    They really need to get rid of 24/7's, it's become really bad now.

    I have not seen one for Golovkin/Jacobs yet, been checking HBO, still not anywhere.................perhaps it will show after the fight Saturday night? This should not have been PPV, Golovkin Vs. El Pollo could be PPV, but not Golovkin/Jacobs............greed is way too high in boxing..........

    Only fighters who can justify mega paydays over 10 m today are Mayweather , Pacquiao , Canelo and
    maybe Joshua because they have a huge fan base . Ward vs Koleauv did 160 k PPV and the reason
    the delay has been going on is that its not financially windfall for HBO. They want more money and there
    is not a market for this fight for the amount the 2 fighters want.
    Unless GGG does at least 300 k then he is not bringing anything extra to a Canelo fight. And no matter
    how much GGG camp might dispute this he will be the B side to the fight not the A side. Please not
    showing any bias to any fighter just stating the economic reality of these potential matchups.

    It was bad even with Floyd for those who didn't hate his guts and got mad he lives a lifestyle a million times better than their grimy pleb lifestyle.

    it escapes me why so many say Jacobs is likeable as well. on that lead up show to his fight with GGG the guy was referring to the doctors who saved his life from cancer as "MFers".

    That's gratitude for you!
