    the whole world awaits jacobs if he wins. he'd instantly be the most famous active boxer in america. he'd be headed towards mainstream s****om. not even mayweather achieved that. if he won, he would make more money in his next fight than ward has in his career. yet he still wants none.

    Jacobs is very possibly facing Mora at the end of July. There's really no point is anything until that fight is done. But that doesn't matter. You can't make anyone get in the ring if they do not want to. Isn't that obvious by now? Jacobs already ruled out G3, so what's the point of G3 calling now? Do you even do any fvckin research?:patsch

    if and when ggg beats Canelo - Jacobs, BJS, quillin, etc will all want the fight as the money will be greater than it would be today.

    Excuse me? Me personally I don't care who makes what its you flip floppers who praise GGG for bypassing his title shot for 2 years "trying to make it bigger" yet will discredit Jacobs for saying the exact same thing.

    Now if you wanna debate points we can an I'm pretty sure you'll come up with excuses for why someone doing the same sh!t as GGG is a duck for them and not for Gennandy.

    True enough at the same time if you claim noone wants to fight, you either fight those who do wanna fight (which he doesn't), or make better offers (which he also doesn't).

    You can't praise business decisions when your fighter is making them vs others then bash em when there being used against your fighter.

    I'm really starting to miss the previous era no matter how much you hate on Floyd or Manny one beat the most Champs ever the other is a 7/8 division Champ these new guys ain't built like that. Maybe one or two like Loma or Roman but overall.

    G3 took step aside money from Canelo and Cotto because it was clear neither was going to step in the ring with him no matter what was offered.

    Jacobs is not doing the exact same thing. :patsch

    GGG took step aside money and claimed it was to let the fight build up bigger, what you said is just opinion to try and make it seem different when it isn't.

    Again I hate the money talk but GGG fans will argue say Lara would have to take 500k to make a fight, but if Canelo says 90/10 is a duck and theres a bigger gap in popuparity between Canelo and GGG than there is between GGG and Lara.

    How the hell did I even get brought into this thread smh.

    Sure, that's what they say. It's opinion to someone who hasn't seen this done a hundred times already I guess. But it was step aside money because that was the only way to get G3 off their backs for the time being. It's not hard to comprehend.

    You think Alvarez needs time to let the Smith fight marinate too? Of course not.

    G3 and Jacobs could get it on now, or next year, and it'll likely make no difference in terms of how big it could be. Same goes for G3 and Alvarez.

    GGGs promoter says we agree to bypass a fight to try and make the money bigger, is no different than what Jacobs is saying.

    I've seen the most feared bs play out hundreds of times as well and usually its the "ducked" guy who was the problem and the one who ends up being exposed.

    You say its to get GGG off their back, but likely a 10+mil difference in opponents is the more obvious answer.

    In regards to Smith who the hell is calling Smith a possible big fight? Smith is also in Alvarez's division less hassle about weight, Smith doesn't think hes a star as well so less hassle with money.

    I'm not a fan of the Smith fight but Smith is really on par with GGGs best wins which is saying something.

    While I don't agree with the waiting that last part is false, as cr@ppy as it is for us, we've seen over and over that for the fighters and promoters it makes them more money.
    May-Pac wasn't gonna do 4mil in 10"
    Canelo-Cotto wouldn't have done 1mil in 14" just like a potential Canelo/Cotto-GGG fight wouldn't do big numbers if it was made last yr.
    The more accolades involved increases the ultimate value of the fight.

    Me personally I'm more interested in the fights fu[k all the other stuff but real talk when GB was saying 90-10 an its oh there lowballing this is the same thing only one is called ducking.

    Plenty of time for a best of 5 series with Mora. Good job.

    The above series of posts does not constitute a debate. A more accurate depiction would be a lunatic, rewriting history, replete with agenda laden semantics that spit directly in the face of logic.
