Comments Thread For: Golovkin Predicts Canelo Will Lowball Him To Avoid 2017 Fight

[HURTFEELINGS]

LOL, when jacobs said he'd fight for the right money, he was said to be ducking...that was less than a week ago........if you want to make "big drama show" you will take what they offered, isnt that what his fans say lol, first he would fight anyone from 154-168, turned out to be a liar, He doesnt want to make the big fights.70-30 is fair, more than fair, considering he doesnt sell ppv's, Pac didnt get 50-50 and he had sold millions, this guy doesnt want to make this fight. Maybe 50-50 means something else in his native tongue. What does he think he's gonna get from Oscar, who knows what other fighters trying to make the big fights took....Oscar who learned from bob arum...you will take it and like it my friend, the nerve of this guy....I CANT WAIT UNTIL LATER TODAY TO SEE WHAT HIS APOLOGISTS (NUTLICKERS) WILL SAY TO DEFEND THIS COWARD Mr 97k vs the guy with the second highest ppv...he never wouldve got to fight floyd with his thinking

To save face Canelo will have Oscar make a big show of negotiating a fight with GGG for late 17. What they won't tell you is that they will offer 80/20 Canelo deserved A side. GGG can make more him being 60/40 against other middle champs. Fair would be Canelo 60/40. He is the bigger draw even though GGG ranked pfp way higher.

Remember many fighters go whole career ducking other fighters. Hagler Mccalum Lamotta Robinson prime curry etc

[Scary_canary]

Golovkin should take whatever money is offered even if it's 200k.... Knock the ginger ***** out and make a fortune in the rematch

[Jimmy 23]

50/50???Golovkin is a joke

[Ake-Dawg]

Why are folks predicting what Alvarez would do to justify what GGG says. The guy who isn't a businessman has been doing nothing but business for the last year.

Note to Trip...just like your promoter suggested with Ward, you will have to trade pounds for a higher split. 70-30 at 160.

if spock were a boxing fan, he would not be impressed with this line of ''reasoning''.

lets forget the past and deal with the here and now. everyone is tied up in their own fights. lets, um......wait ?!?!?

next, what to with the winners of those fights....everyone says they will fight 3g if the money is right. well, what is the REALISTIC magic number ?!?!? remember, like it or not, and i dont, 3g is the mw king. he knows the money is with alvy, whos not a REAL mw (even though he has a mw belt).

again..........IF alvy wants to be a mw champ, he HAS to fight the other, more established mw champ. if not, SAY SO and move on. but lets be real. rjj was not a real hw. may was not a real sww. cotto is not a real mw. yet these guys have won titles in those divs.

we want 3g to move up. since mw is so weak, he should seek out better comp. 3g wants money. what money fight is there at smw ?!?!? im not a 3g hater, im just not convinced hes as good as his fans say he is. BUT hes doing what he can to prove himself.

Giberto Ramirez ( Mexican fanbase ) James Degale ( UK fanbase ) even Callum Smith ( UK Fanbase ) old Abraham ( Germany ) the Champions @ 168 are far greater than 160 even Bute who almost KO GGG in the amateurs is a good fight ; I forgot Baduo Jack.

No no no no no. Much as this dude been stalking Canelo he better take Canelo gives him.

I don't give him a pass on money. Fighters take pay cuts and make weight sacrifices all the time for their moment.

You beat Canelo, then you become the money man.

GGG will not take 2 millions for the fight where he can take 20 millions. After all this is a prize-fighting, not charity events. All in all, I guess that negotiations are going the route of May-Pac and will take another 3-4 years to complete.
The most probable scenario is that during the next 2 years Alvarez will lose again to lesser competition and that will be the end of his A-side vs B-side nonsense. Than the fight will be relatively easy to make, but the public demand will not be there at the level it is now.
