Comments Thread For: Jacobs: I Don’t Fear Golovkin, I Just Want Fair Money

[Vasyl’s dad]

Wow! You guys are really defending GGG resume! I personally think that GGG is the real deal, but I also believe that his resume is crap. He hasn't fought anybody so I really don't know how good he really is. But it amazes me because I know yall are the same PAC fans than try to rip Floyd resume apart and call him a cherry picker! How ironic resume doesn't matter for lil G but for Floyd he's a chicken when he only fought champions and moved up in weight several times

Name the somebody who makes him legit at 160?

[!! Shawn]

how much does he want ? he got $1'500'000 for the quillin fight so presumably it would be more than that.truth be told he will price himself out of the fight he knows he can't win but it doesn't matter anyway al hymie sez no

He shouldn't have even gotten 1.5 mill for Quillin, Haymon overpaying fighters and making it impossible to make other fights. Now all these fighters expect unrealistic money.

Yeah that's always been a problem with Haymon fighters. Like LSC wanting three million for fighting Rigondeaux (logic: well I get a million bucks for fighting bums and Rigondeaux is much better than a bum therefore I deserve at least three million!).

If the tv numbers prove accurate, then Haymon paid $3mill for a main-event that was watched by less than 300,000 people on tv with an attendance of 8,400.

It'll be impossible to negotiate with people who have no connection with their real market-value. HBO needs to allow Golovkin to go fight off HBO. K2 should then call for an immediate purse bid, let Haymon bid some upsurd amount, beat his guy and take a nice chunk out of his hedge fund.

"Thats good for boxing doe. See, fighters pricing themselves out of fights against the best opposition is what I want to see as a fan. Fighters getting paid, thats important to me."

Why not PPV? I can see this fight doing a good 98k buys

[mathed]

If a couple million dollars isn't enough to step in the ring with the guy then you don't believe you can beat him. All I read is how it needs to be worth it to face the guy while posters on here act like the guy is a scrub. Something doesn't quite add up.

267,000 viewers?! Yikes, that's not much more than the number of people who bought Golovkin/Lemieux.
