WBA to call for GGG v. Jacobs mandatory next week at the WBA annual convention!!!!

[creekrat77]

Jacobs would get destroyed. He just doesn't have the durability or ring iq to fend off GGG's diversified attack

[boliodogs]

WAAAAAAR JACOBS!!!!! Golovkin's going to get KTFO!

Is Jacobs going to knock GGG out the way he knocked Pirog out? If Mora's wet noodle left hook can drop Jacobs then GGG's left hook will put Jacobs in a coma. Nobody has ever hurt GGG with a punch and Jacobs won't either.

[jqSide]

Are you people even sure Jacobs won't duck Golovkin? I'm already seeing excuses right now.

[boliodogs]

Everybody knew that Jacobs and Quillen were both good punchers with average chins and somebody was going to get knocked out. Neither one of them is in GGG's class. If Quillen had scored the KO then the GGG haters would be picking him to KO GGG. GGG has an iron jaw and has never been off his feet in all his amateur and pro fights. I don't think Jacobs will ever agree to fight GGG anyway. He never tried to get a fight with him before.

Will GGG ask for a catch weight ?

I will try one last time; you seem to be slow, so here goes.

Jacobs-Quillin, as a standalone fight, was a massively meaningful fight; Showtime was heaviliy interested in broadcasting it, Barclays Center was deeply interesting in hosting the fight, and I'd imagine that interest in the New York area were happy to support the fight with event sponsorsips (not to mention the fight being big enough to draw international interest, ie BoxNation in the UK).

In putting together the budget for this fight, Lou Dibella could rightfully look to the Showtime TV rights fee, net proceeds from the live gate, event sponsors, international TV rights fees, and even some merch sales supporting the NY-focused fight card, among other things. Add up projections for the 5-6 different revenue streams, weigh those against the costs related to putting on the event, and pay out accordingly.

Not every fight is going to be as big as Jacobs-Quillin; a lot of fights actually end up like Jared Hurd vs Frank Galarza. The Hard Rock Casino may have been willing to pay out some money to host the fight, but a massive crowd didn't walk up to the box office, there was no real international interest in the card, and I doubt that the event sponsors were kicking down the doors to add their names to the show.

The entire event, by and large, was financed by what Showtime was willing to put behind the ShoBox rights fee. If the promoters for the event earnestly expected to only make their money off of the tickets that they were able to sell, they likely ended up losing money on the show from the jump.

nice try dip****, but your claim was that every promoter pockets some of the tv revenue, and that is 100% false.

promoters RARELY pocket any of the tv revenue, and their profit comes from the other revenue streams.

but keep spinning. I figured you werent man enough to admit a simply mistake that probably insiders would know the details of, and you proved me correct.


Chump.

perhaps you need a refresher as to the nonsense you were spewing......

these 2 are my favorites.........lol

If you, as a promoter, are willing to put a fight on TV, for a channel where you make no money for putting the fight on TV, you are the definition of an utter **** promoter.

Canelo-Kirkland, even after the hooplah of 40k people in attendance, only did $2m at the gate, before deducting the costs related to actually putting on the fight (renting of the venue, insurance fees, marketing/promotion for the events, various sanctioning fees, etc).

Imagine how ****ing ****** a promoter Oscar De La Hoya would've been if he were to actually put on an event not expecting to make any money off of the US TV rights. gtfoh.

You are literally trying to argue that a fight promoter will happily take a fight card to TV, knowing that they shouldn't expect any money from the TV. lol

No wonder you're only an imaginary promoter on NSB.

[Kenchiro]

I truly believe the pbc fighters are the sissiest fighters out there...nowhere in time have you seen quackens or jacobs said bring on ggg...never...it's just they dont want to fight him...

[Ray*]

Decent fight in between the Canelo fight later in 2016. I think GBP and K2 will negotiate to have the fight take place like in September. This would be better than Tureano Johnson.

Definitely a better fight, i hope this fight actually happens. But everything depends on what happens in the next few weeks regarding Team Canelo.

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

why not just annouce it now. now everdything needs to be done formal
