Comments Thread For: Chavez Jr: No Top Rank Extension Unless I'm Paid Right

[MDPopescu]

... Chavez will "cross the street".

[IMDAZED]

1) TR orders Chavez to take the Golovkin fight.

2) Chavez doesn't sign for the GGG fight unless he gets more money on a TR contract extension (even if, to date, Jr. gets the same money that Andre Ward gets).

Who's twisting whose hand and for what actual reason?

(I know that Ward isn't in Arums' stable... I accept I'm biased an slow -- that's who I am...)

You skipped the part where it should say he only gets the GGG fight if he signs an extension.

Promoters work for fighters~ they do a service they can't order a fighter to do a damn thing they don't want to do.

It isn't me the one who doesn't know the current situation with Jr. -- it's another one above...

... But, eventually, how much Chavez wants to be paid? Because he gets as much as Ward gets for fighting the same blokes...
... Chavez may also go in the UK in order to fight for a huge purse, in the near future...

... In short: I suspect that Jr. rather doesn't want Golovkin...

I see your ggg loving ass bypassed my post! So since GGG can't get a Chavez jr. fight at 168, on HBO in July how come him and his team don't call out Ward? Or is he ducking Ward?

So do you have issues with ggg trying to fight Chavez jr. at 168 but not Ward? I mean everybody is scared of ggg right? GTFOH

Ward made it clear as day he is willing and ready to fight ggg "HBO is trying to force feed us ggg and make him a star." What did ggg and his team say after that? Not a damn thing!

Ward also said "ggg and his team said they are willing to fight anybody from 154-175 so they should have know problem fighting me right?" So once again Ward made it clear as **** he is ready to fight. Neither has an opponent signed, they both fight for HBO, and GGG is clearly ready to fight at 168?

So what's up with your boy? It's clear he wants ZERO parts of Ward absolutely no problems with Ward at all. So is your boy ducking??? NEXT

To be very honest: About a month ago, I guess, I red in the news that "Top Rank ordered Chavez Jr. to fight Golovkin"... The news didn't read that TR, in addition to ordering Jr. this fight, also ordered him to sign a contract extension... No press statement from Chavez Jr. revealed something like that... Last week I've seen in the news that Golovkin signed for the fight and that the fight is 99% done... Now I read these from Chavez Jr.

What I understand: it wasn't Jr. who asked for the fight and TR agreed, but in exchange they asked Jr. to re-sign...

Well then the bolded is the issue. Not "ducking" or whatever 3rd grade theory some posters are throwing out there.

I avoid communication with too "intelligent" people here -- it's too demanding for my limited communication capacities...

The dont call him Rob Arum for nothing. The kid may lack the training effort, but his name and style is worth some coin.

Top rank didn't order the fight, they offered the fight to Chavez. From there Chavez and his management have the option of accepting or declining the terms. From what we know Chavez has accepted the fight. What he hasn't accepted is the forced extension to his contract with top rank.

And I can't blame him for wanting to bail if he sees gold with haymon and company. Chavez isn't a guy top rank has invested money in and lost money on or are just recovering money from him as is the case with fighters like Garcia or donaire. Chavez has always made them money

Read again: TR ordered Jr to take this fight... Therefore they forced him into it... And (surprise!) Jr. doesn't sign for this fight...
Do you think Chavez Jr. will sign to fight GGG?
