Comments Thread For: Golovkin-Jacobs: WBA Denies Request To Modify Purse Bid Split

[THC]

aboutfkntime; K2 and Matchroom attempted to make a Golovkin-Eubanks Jr. fight. K2 signed the contract but Matchroom had problems getting Eubanks Jr. onboard. Finally about 9 weeks out, Hearn said Jr. is out, how about Kell Brook? K2 agreed.

You're claming that K2 was only after Kell Brook? They had no plan whatsoever to accept a fight with Chris Eubank Jr.?

Finally about 9 weeks out, Hearn said Jr. is out, how about Kell Brook? K2 happily agreed, because they were more than happy to take that fight..... at that point in time, Brook was an even better cherry-pick then Eubank.

if Team Golovkin were not 100% satisfied with that fight..... if they were unhappy with ANY aspect of the negotiation at all..... they would have walked on the date and fought someone else, LIKE THEY JUST DID WITH JACOBS.

I capitalized/bolded the important part for a very good reason ^^

stop pretending that 97,000 PPV buys wouldn't generate more than "Quillin money"

stop pretending that Loeffler couldn't simply make that fight anyway

stop pretending they couldn't have simply rung Lara

stop pretending that 97,000 PPV buys wouldn't generate more than the 1.5mil they offered Saunders

stop pretending that Golovkin could not generate more than 97,000 buys in his 2nd PPV attempt, or even closer to the 150k-200k they originally stated

stop pretending that Golovkin had to meet some divine imaginary date, they could have simply found a better opponent

stop pretending that K2 had to accept an offer from Hearn, they could have simply found a better opponent

stop pretending that Eddie Hearn totally forgot to mention Degale

stop pretending that Tom Loeffler totally forgot to request Degale

stop pretending that Tom Loeffler totally forgot about 168, period

stop pretending that a good SMW opponent would not generate more interest/notoriety - which would lead to a better financial upside - than the doomed welterweight Brook




they split the pot fairly with Hearn, because they wanted that fight..... if they were not 100% satisfied with the opponent/terms they would have simply walked, like they have done on many previous occasions

it is absurd the way you guys refuse to hold Team Golovkin, but more importantly Gennady himself..... anything less than 100% accountable for every word/action/decision that they have ever made LMAO

Brook was the fight they wanted all along.

This is Pacman and Arum all over again.

aboutfkntime; you seem to agree with the event timeline. I see it as a last ditch effort by Hearn to save the London event. And K2 agreed to the swap. I would've far preferred Eubank Jr. but you despised the match up. I can dig it.

You're now claiming that K2 postponed the Jacobs fight to early 2017 because they didn't want to pay him what he wants. How much did Jacobs request? or what was K2's last offer (a link is best)?

[Kigali]

That says it all. Hey did you hear team Jacobs was never ready for December anyway? They need 10-12 weeks training

Did you hear that GGG isn't fighting in December anyway?

[Tomjas]

no, that is ridiculous

that is actually an absurd suggestion

what on earth would lead you to suggest such a thing ?

If they were not 100% happy, they would walk, and make other arrangements..... like they just did with the Jacobs date.

They offered him $5 million to fight Brook when the alternative was a fight in the US for $2 million

But you already know this

[Tomjas]

Did you hear that GGG isn't fighting in December anyway?

Because Jacobs pulled out

Jog on alt

[HeroBando]

Did you hear that GGG isn't fighting in December anyway?

Cause he doesn't have an opponent, a$$wipe. Mando not ready. They'll let him get ready

Dude you're wasting your time. Did you see his list of the fighters Ggg ducked? The one with Canelo, Cotto, Bj Saunders, Sergio Mora lol. I bet Jacobs is on it now. But guess what, 6 months ago Brook was on it. Don't sweat that POS, that's what ignore lists are for
