    No one 168 & under has a prayer of beating GGG That's why the div is filled with balless prima donnas

    So you want the fight. I want the fight.

    The only difference is you feel the need to defend this boxer and I don't.

    Degale does in my opinion not sure I give other guys too much of a chance. If you ask me GGG's team are also primadonnas too.

    With that being said Jacobs, Saunders, Canelo and Eubank do not really want the fight that's much is clear

    Canelo doesn't deserve anything like a 75% split.

    He's not even a MW champ.

    A CW fight against someone doesn't do big numbers, and it just puts him under more pressure.

    I agree that talk is cheap, but I think Billy is being genuine.

    I will defend him if he gets criticised for not accepting a flat fee, 12 months out.

    I would defend anyone's team for not accepting that.

    Exactly. No harm in trying to negotiate 12 months out, besides, no doubt this was just a preliminary offer subject to agreeing a host of other terms.

    Golden Boy clearly trying to rip GGG off / lowball him, but given his ndifficulties in finding a suitable opponent, I still think that come September 2017 GGG should probably take $10 million if it's either that or no fight, simply because it's more money and a better name than any other possibility @160.

    See he's a multi millionaire, I don't think he needs you defending him to be totally honest.

    Disagree. He deserves more than 10% 30% is about fine. Canelo is the star but needs GGG to earn that sort of money, could make 100mil

    Golovkin like a lot of these new fighters have an overinflated since if self worth, GGG is neither popular enough nor accomplished enough to make 5Mil for a fight let alone turn down 10.
    People keep saying this "Biggest Fight" crap like it means anything in the current landscape a fight doing 600k can be the "Biggest Fight" in boxing doesn't mean it's a 100mil fight get serious neither GG or Canelo is going to make that type of dough or reach that level.

    you dont read or comprehend very well...i know what weight hopkins fought pavlik at(just like i was well aware of what weight hop fought calzaghe at but you seemed to think otherwise)....i said at least hopkins had the decency to give pavlik a catchweight unlike ggg with brook

    how do i know golovkin wont move up for any serious fight? because he ducked feather fisted ward at 168 and golovkin has contradicted what sanchez has said on a couple of occasions....sanchez once said he thought 168 would be gggs best weight...then ggg turns around and says "im 160lber...thats where i belong"...which tells me he doenst have a ton of confidence in moving up.....degale would be a tough fight for him...heck even andre dirrell, the faded version, would be a tough out for golovkin...i think a prime dirrell would beat him easily......ggg floats the names of degale...zurdo...has mentioned hopkins even ....but fights no one.....hes a bottom feeder

    i know you are just an alt of a previous very dumb poster...so i dont know why im bothering...its clear you are outgunned and overmatched in the intelligence and boxing acumen departments
