Arum to try to negotiate GGG/Chavez Jr again with father present

[wiz1030]

Because he thinks his dad will side with him

I know that, and that's the point. It comes across as incredibly offensive. Arum trying essentially to 'son' Chavez Jr.

If I were Chavez Jr. I couldn't even entertain something like that. Trying to come between my family. That lack of decorum sheds light on so many fighters' dissatisfaction in dealings with Arum

[Hougigo]

Any promoter who wants to throw his troubled cash cow in with GGG, yes he has the fans interest in mind (in this case anyway LOL)

Look at GBP's stance with their "Send us an offer". Well they got sent an offer. They are the big promotional house on the block, they should want what GGG has. Why don't they send an offer? GGG should not be seeking out quillin, it should be the other way around.

Nah, Quillin the hottest MW, Golovkin can't connect to the people like him.

Golovkin needs to build his name up

[Weebler I]

For Pac though, you wouldn't need an option. Knowing Bob.... the option would be for a fight nobody would want to watch to make money off of it.

Doubt it'll be Vargas because that's a future Pac opponent, lol.

I wouldn't mind if he vacates... then he's back in the mandatory scene and he'd have a better chance there than trying to unify

Yeah and of them, the IBF really enforce their mandatories. It would be amusing watching Sturm forced to accept the fight or vacate.

People used to criticise the WBO when Eubank held it, kind of like the situation the IBO is in now, but the fighter makes the belt by how he defends the belt. Eubank took on tough opponents, if Golovkin does the same it's worth more than Sturm and Quillin's straps.

Way past time both Quillen and GGG faced some real competition, facing each other would work for me.

Sr should just sign jr's contracts for him, they do have the same name

Well it is time for GBP to stop protecting their youngster and do something with him. His entire career is stagnant, but they continue to sit back and wait for the Kochany's of the world.

Absolute truth in what you say, but lets not pretend GGG handlers have been any more receptive to tough fights

Well from the looks of things, they have been trying to get those fights (except maybe ward), for quite a while now. They cannot help it if everyone is turning yellow.

Now I wonder who daddy really backs

@BloggerBoxing well Chavez Sr just told the A Los Golpes panel on ESPN that Chavez Jr vs GGG will happen soon
