He just said that Akmedov's opponent was a no-hoper and that this type of fight stinks of the company not paying, or not 'opening up their checkbooks' to get a real opponent in lol.
How can you say that...pretty ballsy but man that's a dangerous comment
If DAZN is a success great for GGG. Even if they get bought out it should work out favorable for GGG Id expect.
If they go outta business or go broke itll have been a bad gamble. It feels worth the risk to me.
I gotta assume hes in good shape tomorrow if he retired & lost his DAZN equity so this is just a play for some generational wealth Im figuring.
yeah it is probably a good risk/investment I think...and let's be honest, if he isn't fighting Canelo, he isn't worth paying more than $5 million per fight...he is my guy and I have been as high on GGG as anyone...but he probably never broke close to $10 million before without Canelo.
So DAZN paying him how they are is probably fair anyway...even if they bust and the equity is null
I dont think he is typically doe. He was with someone else before & it was never shilling behavoir. Also worth noting hes with SI now too & outside of his sign on & sign off mentions he never talks about SI.
Idk if DAZN is paying half his check on equity like GGG's pay or something.
Lol yeah I noticed that with GGG'S pay here too...I wonder how all that will work out for him.
Good point too about Mannix maybe getting equity
I still like him, but I liked him more before he took the DAZN job & everything started revolving around the DAZN world, everyone should be fighting some DAZN guy & all big fights should be going down on DAZN. Hes become the MCC of boxing media & is just shilling for DAZN instead of PBC.
Lol! I haven't really followed Mannix too much...but yeah I guess he is still a 'company man' in a lot of ways
Mannix is such a good DAZN shill usually hed have to take a sh^t on a Canelo headband to get fired. Hes good. This is nothing.
Lol...I like Mannix...he at least seems honest and fairly knowledgable
if he said it during a canelo fight i would be impressed. probably 10,000 people watching tonight’s fight so it doesn’t matter.
dazn needs to give keith idec more work. he’s levels above everyone else.
Lol...good point...Yeah I have never seen Keith live but he reminds me of an old school boxing junkie from like the 50s...I like him so far...never seen Coppinger either but he is fine imo as well.
Fair play; no sugar coating. He said it as it is - some horrible match making on this card.
Yeah would have to agree...when your opponent isn't in proper shape and you're a 'top' guy, it is a mis-match...always a give away imo.
He went 10 rounds with Caleb Plant and 4 rounds with Jesse Hart. I assumed the guy could take at least ONE punch.
Yeah I like Akmedov from what little I've seen of him...wondering who his first test will be
