WHAT IF: GGG a PBC fighter

How much would he have been making? Would us fans heard the word concede? Would it been easier for him to get big fights? A lot of questions; discuss.. That's the wrong question; if Golovkin was a "PBC fighter" (not sure if you're intending that Golovkin debuted in the US with Haymon instead of K2, or if you're literally saying that he jumped over at the official debut of the formal PBC deal), he would've had to have fought at least a couple tough fights before he got on any major money. We'd have a better gauge as to how good Golovkin actually was, without question.

He would rot in the Haymon stable. They would duck him way worse than he is now. He'll fight once a year fighting TBAs. Only difference is the possibility of 20 anti-GGG threads a day getting reduced and the Haymon fanboys would embrace him. Right now they're blaming K2, the media, GGG and others for fights not being made. I don't see them blaming Haymon if GGG is with him. They'll probably also become anti Canelo who's been criticized by his own people regarding his handling of the GGG fight. It's predictable.

Nothing would change. He'd still be fighting bums.

Well he wouldn't have the opportunity to fight the recycled Sergio Martinez opponents on HBO. He would have been lambasted for fighting a welterweight. He wouldn't get the deification treatment from Jim Lampley and his crew. He basically wouldn't get as much exposure as he does now. In other words, he would be Arthur Beterbiev.

The media narrative would be changed. Instead of guys being accused of ducking him the media would say Haymon gives him easy fights. Or he's an over protected bum. Broner was lambasted for turning down $4mil against Pacquiao but $10 mil for GGG vs Canelo is considered a low ball. The Broner vs Pacquiao fight would sell more PPV's than Canelo vs. GGG. We're not casual fans, we don't have to read the same ****ty reporters with the same ****ty biases. There are plenty of far more objective writers who don't write as if they have a bottle of Smirnoff in their hand like Steve Kim. But yeah, what you're saying is true--the narrative among guys like him and Raphael would be different.

Canelo/GGG vs Pac/Broner would be equally massive. Emphasis on "equally." As for the purse split determination, there's a difference between the two. Obviously, Alvarez is not as big of a star as Pac is. Also, beating Canelo is not as big as beating Pac. So it's a useless comparison.

He'd probably clean out the stable.

Broner though is not as big as ggg, and I disagree about PacBronners outselling CaneloGGG, I say PacBro will do 500-600k and CaneloGGG does 1m+, I know you know it will

He'd be an overrated protected bum You speak the truth about pbc fighters, but ggg will still be the killer if he was with pbc, he'd be fighting once a year against a bum Thats kinda unrealistic though man, most of the pbc fighter who fights once a year are not draw amd uncharismatic If he was with pbc now rating will be over the roof with free tv , they would already have fed him the quillin and jacobs of the worlds bevause he is the clear best fighter at 160 Free tv, best fighter at 160 and exciting KO artist!? Thats why Im thinking, it wouldnt be bad if jacobs and GGG fight at pbc, I really dont care who wins that purse bid lol just make the damn fight

He would have fought max 2 items a year...

One, he'd be loved by the Haymon/Ellerbe/Floyd fanboys. Two, Lara and other PBC clowns would stop tweeting his name. Three, no he won't make more. Which PBC fighter is making or made more than $2 million in non super fights?

.....and loved by the very same group of posters who criticize him all the time. You're probably right, bud

.....and loved by the very same group of posters who criticize him all the time. Don't be silly he is too white to be praised by black panther members.

God he'd be hated on these boards :lol1: .....and loved by the very same group of posters who criticize him all the time.

If he was with pbc now rating will be over the roof with free tv , they would already have fed him the quillin and jacobs of the worlds bevause he is the clear best fighter at 160

TBH, I don't think GGG would have the same hype as he has with HBO.

He'd be an overrated protected bum

He'd probably be making around the same but have less than half the following and less fights as Haymon can't sustain them over-payments with a busy year.

God he'd be hated on these boards :lol1:

GGG is already overpay by HBO so just imagine that times 3x
