    40% for GGG, freaking Tom is a boss of a negotiator!!!!

    Has the Canelo fans accusing him of making concessions to get the fight done lol

    If anything Canelo/Goldenboy are the bad negotiators.

    What did they concede to Floyd, Cotto and now this?

    I suppose atleast you can't accuse them of pricing themselves out lol

    If I was Golovkin I wouldn't be overly concerned about the splits, he'll get paid well regardless but what would be a sticking point is the drug testing, hand wraps and officials.

    I would want guarantees, I would want regular testing right up until fight night and the hand wraps were an issue last time and so they will be again so get that sorted out way before fight night.

    As for the officials, I'd want a say in exactly who is judging and refereeing, not all on my terms but I'd expect to be asked and I'd have to agree to them.

    You most likely will love GG to rematch Vanes instead

    Nah, I'd just got fed up with all the nonsense around making this fight. I'm sure if and when it's announced I'll get some interest back.

    If people were able to view this fight without knowing who the fighters were, the fighter who was more aggressive and throwing more punches, forcing the action would have won 8-4 by most observers. We have been brainwashed into thinking Canelo is something truly special. People who can't see through the hype and propaganda have been snookered. Golovkin has every right to insist on a more equitable payday this time for two reasons. One, yes, in fact, he won the first fight by a comfortable margin even though you had carefully faux judges like Byrd watching. Two, Golovkin has already missed out on his biggest payday due to Canelo's cheating and carelessness. GGG has every right to demand more.

    1st fight was good. I predict the 2nd fight will be better.

    Canelo is known for being very generous. That's one other reason I'm a fan of his. He doesn't come across as greedy. You're right about Mayweather, and he even gave Cotto the lions share as well. Canelo knows he has the Mexican market locked.

    For me it's the positive PED test and the way that GB have handled it which has soured my view of the fight. That and the Byrd scorecard nonsense from the first fight. These negotiations on top of all that just made me very negative towards it. Still, I appreciate others don't feel the same way and maybe I should've just kept quiet. The fight either happens or it doesn't and people should enjoy it if they can. :)

    Nah, his last name is fishnet. GGG should just buy a set of utensils and get a few hookers to insert them into fishnets anus, he’ll get 50/50 then.
