From the Sherdog Forum, well known boxing insider, reliable, also announced the Jacobs Quillin fight back then and multiple other fights, very close to several Teams.
Couple days ago
We just agreed to 70/30, Fight should be announced Monday. Tell me we didn't fucking do everything to make this fight, GGG gets 62% of the PPV
Gennady and Danny are talking right now. I retract all my negative comments.
Last man standing. Props to him for manning up
I actually like the dude. He's fun to talk shit with. I never take any of this personal
Glad you guys are exited for it. End of the day we wanted to give the fans a great fight. You guys pay hard earned money and we aren't shit without your support
We are going to knock him out. We have Chad Dawson, E, Eris and Twin all holding camp (Chad Dawson, Errol Spence, Erislandy Lara and the Charlo twins)
They are texting. I'm texting with him too.
I think this could have gotten done a lot sooner. His team doesn't speak for him. He's a pretty cool dude. He's playing fantasy football lol
I told you would make the fight. Props go to Gennady too. He told his team to fuck off and made a deal. We are going to kick ass but he's good people
Yesterday
We already signed. It's just a matter of of more paperwork today. We were shooting the shit with him about everything other than boxing (it's exhausting sometimes ) last night. We just have to get the venue and date right which isn't hard since they are running the promotion. It's literally them choosing and sending it over for us to sign. We are letting him use Danny's December date at the moment which is what the media is going ro be running with. It could get moved to January but Danny and Gennady both want to get it done this year so we can do a rematch and still have time to get a fight in with Canelo. The rematch clause is his so we could do it in February and still have plenty of time.
I don't think the fight will do well on PPV. Danny has never been a PPV fighter and we are under no delusion that will change. Gennady and I talked about this last night. I think we would all do better making a little less on putting on a bad ass free card . That being said, they are the lead promoters but I told him I'll bust my ass to do everything I can to promote this too. I'm only going to to work directly through him and he will do the same. We all have each other's personal numbers now. K2 will talk with Al and Sam.
It was pretty eye opening for both of us once all the bullshit was erased. Getting Danny and Gennady to talk (takes bow lol) was the best thing. That's how we got the deal done.
I can't put his personal business out there but let's just say he's tried to fight a lot of guys and his management fuckeded them up. I bet it will be an interesting conversation when his deal expires. I'd love to work with him and he knows this. I've given him shit for a mediocre resume but he filled me in as to why. Gennady deserves no blame for that
We are operating with Danny's date right now. That could change. MSG is the spot now but we conceded venue so it can change.
Like I mentioned earlier I should have just talked to to Gennady directly from the jump. He is 100% different when his team isn't around. We both have good fan bases in NYC.
Today
We are going to keep him outside and tie him up when he tries to lead
When he sets up his uc that's where we will knock him out
He has a rematch clause and he told me barring injury they will exercise it.
We aren't going to use this as leverage against Canelo. I told him that wouldn't happen. He's got the fight at 60 after this
We will not talk to fat can at all. He's in the no fly zone.
We are going to give our interviews to Kellerman
Dan can cry as much as he wants. He will not get a single interview or quote from Danny. Gennady said he'll do the same I'm actually going to send him this link.
He's a fucking clown. You don't talk shit to us like that. I still like quincy k. That was fun. Queen B is ***** made.
I will retire from the sport before he ever talks to one of my fighters
His boy literally ruined all his potential interviews. I'm sure that will go over well with ESPN
I just finished texting with Gennady and he isn't going to to talk to fat can either. This is great
@RR what size ring?
20x20. Looks like its going to to be pretty big after getting off the call a few minutes ago which is somewhat surprising. (Chino Floyd 2 big). MSG is the venue and the date is the 10th. We signed everything on that.
Also good to hear GGG's a nice guy, I was hoping it was his team who were the dicks. So happy this fight got done, definitely gonna buy the ppv, it's ppv worthy I'll be telling my friends who don't care about boxing to buy as well. I'll tell them Danny's Floyd's cousin and GGG's Pac's cousin and they're fighting for family honor or some shit.
He is a really cool dude. Pretty good sense of humor too. He legit told Loeffler to shut the fuck up today. We were on tears
Glad it got done too. A lot of work went into this one
Has the date been finalized?
Yes. We are fighting on the 10th at MSG
We aren't fighting as a mandatory. Gennady asked for it and we said cool
He (Gennady) was legit pissed (about Loeffler). That's why we are talking directly to him now. Gennady is cool as ****. You will never hear me say a negative thing about him again. I have no problem admitted it was immature on my end and he apologized to. Sometimes management is a deterrent.
Danny isn't just my fighter he's my boy. He has stayed at my spot, knows my family and if you look at his instagram those are my Rockets tickets we are sitting in Courtside. Gennady was intrigued to say the least by this. Like I mentioned he will be our fighter when his deal expires
GGG is in camp as of last week. So, I think there expecting a fight. We won't know for sure until we read about it on Sherdog though.
They're waiting to announce it until Obama gives his State of the Sherdog address.
Lock this thread already, people keep bumping it and I'm think the fight is official lol
Bumped again. Who is this Sherdog guy lol? I know GGG team personally, and for a fact GGG went on vacation knowing the fight is stalled by Haymon (who doesn't return Tom's calls) and DJ.
I'm not saying that's how it works. He's playing word games. I said i don't believe the guy
yeah, I hate to call BS when I dont even know the guy, but its just doubtful that someone truly close to the negotiations would be putting stuff all over main street before its even a done deal......
Because Jacobs signed the deal he sent over to GGG. Now that GGG's side has rejected it and purse bid looks likely he wants to raise the split. The split is not for a negotiated deal. It's for a purse bid.
I don't believe the guy but that's what he was saying.

he made a deal that gave him 10 million dollars. signed it. then sent it to ggg.
I'd like to hear Loeffler's comment on this guy supposedly leaking out negotiations.
You think Loeffler would give a single f*ck about some clown that BoxingScene poster Jubei found on an MMA forum? :lol1:
I'm still iffy on the whole thing. The RR guy had 7 years of reputation on the line at Sherdog. Why would he throw it away willy nilly by posting bullsh1t about this fight (of all fights)? It makes no sense for him to do that.
He's still posting on Sherdog saying everything is fine, and that media is manufacturing stories without a quote from either of the fighters - which is true.
We'll see what actually happens. All we actually know so far is that the purse bid deadline was extended. Nothing to do but shut up and wait for now.
Kinda funny he said they agreed to a 70/30 split and now Jacobs is openly asking for a 60/40 split. Somebody just questioned this RR guy about it and brushed them off w/o addressing it.
I'm in agreement with others who think he may be loosely affiliated with the situation somehow and he's playing himself up to be someone in the know. Other things he said that didn't add up were why Danny was going down to Houston to spar with Lara and Jermall, and they were bringing in Chad Dawson. I'd like to hear Loeffler's comment on this guy supposedly leaking out negotiations.
I love how he says "we" and bet you he's not remotely close to being part of the "we." Dude trying to make himself sound more important than what he really is. Reminds me of Chocha Vista when he said "I hear this and that." When in reality he just got the stuff from here and Sherdog. :lol1:
Yeah, but read what he's actually saying in regards to "signed".
Maybe they signed off on the venue? What is this 'paperwork'?
There are things that don't make sense here all around and need clarification. But starting a witch hunt and parading 'that guy was a phony and let's ban everyone who used him as a source' is absolutely and utter idiocy. It's fanboys trying to drum up more bullsh1t to further their agenda.
Nobody has any facts. So sit tight and wait. In 2 weeks everything should be clear.
maybe he took a page from Floyds book and signed a "letter of intent" haha
what doesnt add up as far as RR is concerned is that a few weeks back he specifically said that Jacobs had signed his side of the deal. If that was accurate, then why is Leon petitioning for an adjusted bid split if the financials were already agreed upon?

The RR guy had 7 years of reputation on the line at Sherdog. Why would he throw it away willy nilly...
I think that joke tells itself. ;)
I've got a 10 year old account on there but I no longer bother to even contribute because it's a screaming match between people who know little about the sport. As ugly as this place can be, there's at least a foundation of members who love and respect the sport.
I wouldn't doubt if the guy at Sherdog is loosely connected to the situation but he's likely one of these guys who hears things at the gym and tries to portray himself as being more involved than he really is. When I was at a certain MMA gym, I was privy to fight changing info such as last minute injuries, strategies, etc. A couple of these guys were UFC belt holders. Some camps are careless about talking about this stuff in the gym.

To cut a long story short, yes. The poster Golovkin is likely his source from the other website under the name shyt dog or whatever the name was he was quoting.
He'll be offering Loefller blow jobs to get the inside track next, dude will have no shame admitting it either. 'I sucked Tom's d1ck so I could get Gennady's phone number discreetly whilst he was in the throws of ecstasy.'
Thx for clearing that up. I've never seen anyone on this site claiming inside info, who actually had inside info. Except for the Everlast rep back in the day.
Does sound like a groupie thing.
For shame, for shame...
This thread started out promising and even had a sequel to it created by Chocha Vista. Now it's just a funny mess all over the place. :lol1:
Only idiots fell for it. Real fans knew it was bhll****.

What's funnier is the dude on Sherdog is still talking. A poster came on, called him out and wanted to know his name, and he ripped the guy for questioning him and the rest of the board ignored it.
So, now that we know about the purse bid, this stuff about them negotiating with Golovkin directly and him making it really easy (which sounded suspect as hell) turned out to be garbage?
