Tom Loeffler looking to get another exception from IBF

Dude hasn't made more than 60k in a fight yet I believe. They should just offer him 150k and move on to the Canelo and Saunders fights. They'll set up some ridicioulous interim super duper title fight for Derevyanchenko and he will never end up fighting GGG. Dude if you've been paying attention to DiBella, he ain't taking 225k when he can get his fighter 30% or better as a mandatory and possibly a step aside fee for more than that to make this fight. The fight with Sergiy will happen possibly in NYC with a heavy eastern europe audience but DiBella ain't taking less than Jacobs got for his fighter, I can guarantee you that much, especially an undefeated one that's a mandatory. Look how quick he STFU soon as he heard what HBO's budget was.

It sounds like the IBF doesn't WANT to allow any other fight than Sergiy. Loeffler appears to be fighting for exceptions for a unification with Saunders or rematch with Canelo. If either of those fights are granted an exception for September, Sergiy should absolutely be next. (not to say that he shouldn't be next already). If they allow the Canelo fight, Sergiy will ask for a whole lot of step aside money, and rightfully so. I'm all for fairness and giving people their shot. If they don't allow it, then either give up the belt or fight Sergiy. Pretty simple.

If they negotiate for the Canelo fight, they could offer Derevyanchenko a step aside fee. Otherwise he should defend his belt OR unify against BJS. I don't believe the IBF is allowing a unification

I am not sure about that. I think maybe Oscar doesn't want the rematch. Canelo isn't Vada enrolled and GGG won't fight him unless he is Vada tested. GGG will not be bullied or lowballed on the money split for the rematch. I think Oscar plans to have Canelo fight Spike in September. Spike will take whatever pay he is given and won't complain if Canelo isn't Vada tested. That would free GGG up to fight the IBF mandatory. I hope the GGG vs Canelo rematch happens in September but I don't think it will.

What's the point in seeking an exception? If they're fighting Canelo, **** the belts. He could lose it to Canelo in a legit loss/or a robbery, anyways. Now, if they're fighting Billy Joe Saunders, I'm sure they'll get an exception. I'm hoping that's why they're seeking one, I would love to see GGG vs Billy. Because nobody has ever heard of him. He literally brings nothing to the table. No money, no recognition, nothing. A win over him sounds meaningless at this point in his career. His best win is over Tureano Johnson, who is an okay fighter but that's it. Why chase after him when you can chase after Golovkin, Canelo, Jacobs, and Saunders? That and the fact that he looks good. Or else he would’ve been a perfect tuneup for last night.

HONESTLY! GGG vacates = “oh thought it was his dream. thought he wasn’t in it for the money” GGG keeps it = “scared of Canelo rematch!” or “back to fighting unknown bums!” Yeah it's a no win situation. I don't think the appeal is going to be granted. That fight wasn't even a sparring session. Do the mando ASAP by the middle of next month then move on.

I wonder what the narrative would be though. Will people still start looking into GGG's wallet if he takes a big money fight? Will people pretend Derev is a better boxer than Canelo? Can't win either way with the masses. I swear, people in this forum need better hobbies than measuring the finances of boxers :lol1: HONESTLY! GGG vacates = “oh thought it was his dream. thought he wasn’t in it for the money” GGG keeps it = “scared of Canelo rematch!” or “back to fighting unknown bums!” If you’re on Boxingscene forum, the Trolls bash GGG’s every career move , every single day , 24/7, no matter what, it’s what you do... If you want to save 15% or more on car insurance , you switch to GEICO... it’s what you do!

If they do I at least hope they pay Sergiy well, if he's getting an exemption to go earn around 20 million pay the man properly and i have no problem with it nor will DiBella. Consider it free money, if they don't then I hope they are forced to fight the IBF mandatory, and then pursue Saunders in January to fight Canelo in May again should they succeed. Which seems very likely. Dude hasn't made more than 60k in a fight yet I believe. They should just offer him 150k and move on to the Canelo and Saunders fights.

This forum will hit the fuking deck if GGG vacates the IBF belt to fight Canelo. The amount of trolling would be absurd. I wonder what the narrative would be though.

Any link or video? I want Dereyanchenko to get his shot. I'm tired of them chasing Canelo. The only exception they should be asking for is to make the Derevy fight in late August/early September rather than August 3rd.

What unification? Canelo doesn't have a title. Damn, you're right. :pat: I forgot that Canelo has no belts.

What unification? Canelo doesn't have a title. He's talking maybe Saunders?

Golovkin should have just fought Derevyanchenko yesterday to avoid this, instead of wasting everyone's time with Vanes. Let's hope the IBF allows a unification to take precedence. But they are usually sticklers about their rules.

The IBF should give him an exemption to fight Canelo IMO, it’s not GGG’s fault Canelo got popped. They could even have Derevyanchenko fight Andrade/Jacobs for some interim title and the winners meet in December/early 2019. And let’s be honest it all comes down to money and GGG-Canelo, will earn the IBF a lot more money than any other fight.
