Comments Thread For: Chavez: I'll Only Fight Golovkin Without an Extension

[JDD1]

Like I said on my previous post, loyalty is something that those guys from third world countries are being known for. It's easy for you guys to undermine his intelligence because of the route he took. But Loyalty to some is that. Being loyal. If you think that trump his intelligence, that's your opinion. Last time I check the guy still make $20 mil per fight.

Manny left Murad Muhammad to sign with TR so I dont think its fair to cite loyalty as a reason he is staying.

I dont even know what all the confusion is about, he signed a contract, he's willing to abide by that contract, and once his contract is up then he wants to explore new options...case closed! But Arum wants to hold him hostage and make him sign an extension just so he can fight GGG, man f_u_c_k Arum, every fighter who has left him begin to make the most money that they have ever earned in the sport of boxing, starting with Oscar, to Floyd, to Cotto, and it could be Manny if he would wised up.....Props to JCC Jr

That is ridiculous...Arum stays trying to force fighters to extend contracts to get certain fights...this guy is desperate

Didn't Floyd sign with Showtime and was a 6 fight deal? Everyone in boxing is doing this, Golden Boy started it really so don't make it seem like Arum is the scum. He is looking out for his money as well, and putting Chavez in a fight against Golovkin is a lot of risk for him as well. The fighters should get most of the money but it isn't HBO or cable companies paying for all the marketing and setting up of the arena.

lol JR isnt good at all, just shows u how desperate top rank is. he has a big name but gets whipped at 168. not even sure he would beat bika

[big_james10]

Good for him! I am glad that Chavez Jr. is standing up to Arum. This is the best news I have heard all day. If Arum won't make the Chavez/Golovkin fight without an extension, Chavez should simply finish out his contract and then fight Golovkin without Arum and then fight Ward and Froch without Arum's involvement.

What did Murat did for Manny to merit his loyalty to him?

lmfao Top Rank is crumbling !!! Golovkin needs to stop ducking Ward that's all I know, his hype train will crash and burn that night. Chavez Jr refuses to be ****d unlike Pacquiao who willingly bends over for Bob with no vaseline.

[MrFynest]

Glad Jr is sticking to his guns and caving in on Arums bribe of forcing to sign an extension. Another Top Rank fighter unhappy. Arum's empire little by little will be a sinking ship. Although I think GGG would pound Jr.

Floyd didn't really leave HBO, HBO lost a bidding war to CBS/Showtime so Floyd took the better deal.

If Chavez is doing this mainly to start a bidding war for mainly his name only since he brings a crowd with him then why not? It's smart. No one knows the details of what his extension is offering and if he feeling it's not a good deal then that's how he feels.

lol the floyd fans are in full force here despite knowing nothing about what is going on

were they doing the same when guerrerro tried to break his contract with golden boy?

who gives a damn about what Guerrero is doing, we want Pacquiao to stop getting a$$ ****d by Arum, become his own boss so he can have better opponents to match up with like Floyd, Thurman, Garcia or Porter.
