He turned down 10 mil to fight 5'7 Canelo
He ducked the hell outta' Ward...despite all the anybody from "154 to 168" crap.
He even turned down a Mora fight on HBO to fight Adama off TV....
He's unreal alright...
You expect GGG to take very short money as a b-side, while when GGG is the a-side he is also to take short money wtf? Does nobody really want to fight GGG? The answer is so obviously a no.

But yeah, I'd like to see some better fighters having the guts to step in to GGG without prizing thenselves out. I mean the big money can come after they beat GGG. Thats how it normally works. Not with GGG though. He has to take less than what he is worth for even getting an opponent.
GGG is unreal. He is the most avoided fighter I can remember in all my years in boxing. Its not even like you hear any of his opponents wanting a rematch. None wants a return. Why? Because they know full well that they will get ktfo again and the second time will be a careerbreaker and for less money. Unreal.

GGG is not the A side against Canelo...even somebody like you should know that.
Everytime you turn around Gigi is in the ring...so evidently somebody is fighting him...even a WW fought him..

Try to relate to my post instead of playing dumb.

From everything we've heard, both Lara and Jacobs want few/several millions. 1.25 is not cutting it for him.
I don't know if there was a good quote from Lara or DeCubas, but here's Jacobs:
“I’m not going to fight a guy like GGG and make the same amount of money for fighting a Peter Quillin,” Jacobs said. “It doesnt make sense. Yeah, GGG is on the list but it’s all about doing it when it makes sense,” Jacobs went on. “I’m not going to have people force me — meaning those Twitter thugs or anybody else force me to fight somebody when I can make so much more (money).
That’s the kind of money I’m talking about; 5 million, 10 million, Mayweather just got 280 million for Pacquiao, and I’d be cool with 5 million or 10 million.
I don't think Golovkin would have any problems with fighting Lara for that split. The problem is that Lara and the rest have made it known they want a LOT of money for Golovkin.
