Comments Thread For: Saunders Open To Golovkin, Says His Team Will Decide

[tiliheels]

So let me get this straight, he wants to unify MW. Say he does, and cleans out all comers. Then moves up.

So if he just fights the best 168ers it won't be enough, he has to also want to unify that division too.

As if doing so is an easy thing to do.

You've already attempted to put a silly high bar for him, just so if he goes name hunting after unification MW, you can biiiitch.

Funny shiiiit. Damn, I guess Ward has to clean out the LHW division too or your gonna biiiiitch.

i dont mind callin this man TBE if he goes an proves it..shoot he is good for boxing...but noway in hell would i rank him among greats for beating lemule, bj, and a canelo who has never even made 160 and in fear to fight ppl his own size...same way i dont rank canelo as a great fighter bc he went in and beat a 35 yea rold that he nearly doubled in size..

for me ggg has so many circumstances to overcome..i hope he gets his belts, moves, up and understand that degale is his way to greatness or the linal champ of that division..

Team GGGs claim of being avoided look weak when they werent putn that kinda bread up

Thats the point.

They " found " money for Saunders because they think they can beat him.

If it takes 6 million for someone to get in the ring with you,you're being avoided.

Lara said that he would fight Golovkin at 160, on HBO, in Kazakhstan, for $45 and a pack of cigarettes

They didn't find any money you might wanna learn some basic boxing business.

**** anyone not named Cotto or Canelo @ 160 shouldn't be opposed to the potential of getting KTFO by GGG for $6,000,000. And I think GGG's undefeatability is overrated + I think getting KTFO for that much money isn't a bad deal if you do get KTFO so that amount of money isn't turndownable imo.

That said there is no way they are offering BJS $6M for GGG. Maybe its a multi fight situation like some have suggested at best & if it is & if its guaranteed than thats not turndownable either imo, but its more debatable depending on the hoops he'd have to jump thru.

BJS said Team GGG offered him 6 mil. What proof do you have that they didn't?

Or does Team Golovkin offering BJS that much money conflict with Jacobs request for $3 mil that so many called unreasonable?

It's just very hard to believe, when Gggs career high is 2m, right? Even with a multifight HBO deal 6m is way out of reach

I got no clue what Jacobs has to do with it so I'll leave that alone.

And the quote I saw about this was just some guy saying is it worth it to get your face knocked in & BJS replied that for $6M clams it would be. I didn't actually see anything to suggest that a offer from K2 of $6M was made. The only thing K2 has said was a firm offer was made, whatever the f#ck that means.

And I say $6M doesn't make sense cuz GGG hasn't participated in a fight where him & his opponent have made $6M combined yet let alone one guy making $6M. I don't see how this one would be the first. I dig BJS & am totally rooting for him to be getting $6M or whatever huge sum he can get, but that number doesn't sound reasonable unless it includes more than one fight as others have suggested & sounds more believable to me.

In all honesty, it's not a reach... I can't imagine why BJS would inflate what GGG offered him for a fight on twitter. In what way would that benefit him?

If I'm being honest here, the only reason I see so many GGG fans have a hard time acknowledging that offer is because it contradicts their claim of Jacobs ducking GGG by pricing himself out by asking for $3-5 mil.

If GGG offered BJS 6 mil it completely pours water on the allegations of Jacobs ducking GGG by pricing himself out. This is the only logic I see for GGG fans accusing BJS of lying about the financial offer he received from Golovkin.

I dunno but its totally implausible. If he did offer Bjs 6m then by all means offer Jacobs 3-5. But as of now, 3m is 50% more than Gggs best purse

Maybe GGG or people from his team are willing to give up a % of their earnings to make the fight? I don't know.

I just find it strange for BJS to just make up these numbers.
