What's Team Golovkin's Offer to Jacobs?

[buge]

$4 mil equals 6mil pounds

$6 mil equals 4 mil pounds

Which one is he saying they offered him?

@brendan_chubz may be but I'll be 6 mill heavy

your math is off a bit there, bucko

I had just assumed it was $6M dollars, but $4M also seems too high

You just contradicted yourself.

You say "If Jacobs and Lara had ambition, they would make a damn offer".

Team Jacobs has made an offer, it's you and your buds that say Jacobs offer is too much, NOT Team Golovkin themselves. Just because Jacobs offer isn't what YOU want it to be, doesn't negate the fact that Team Jacobs has already answered the bolded above.

Secondly, GGG did 97k PPV buys so why are you saying if people want fame they should seek out GGG? Obviously he's not that famous.

GGG has beaten 3 champions in his entire 10 year career tenure (i.e. Kasim Ouma, Geale and D. Lemieux). GGG needs a worthy MW on his resume, not Taureno Johnson and the like.

No they did not make an offer. Neither of them have. All they did was talk on twitter or state they want a lot of money in an interview. They did not make any offer whatsoever. Tureano is a mandatory challenger for a belt. He will take the fight for short money in order to try to make a name for himself. They need to do the same damn thing

[Chollo Vista]

He has a real belt. GGG is after whoever has that belt, could been Lee.

But are you interested in belts or the best fighting the best?

Jacobs is the best challenge to GGG outside of Canelo at the moment.

GGG has been regarded as the champ at 160 back when Martinez was reigning as champ, so I doubt anything would change if GGG didn't fight BJS next and fought Jacobs instead.

BTW, you know as well as I do that BJS is scared shtless of GGG. He won't get in the ring with him and if he does it'll be Spinks-Tyson all over again. The man will be beaten before he even steps in the ring. The fans will never give props for fighting someone that wants no part of GGG to begin with.

Are you interested in belts or the best of the division fighting the best?

I want to see GGG do his job this year and get all belts, Jacobs could also fight for all belts if order by the WBA..

GGG year need to be

Billy Saunders (WBO)
Tureano Johnson (IBF Mandatory)
Saul Alvarez (WBC)

After his done with those 3 if he wins then we can talk about the next guy at 160 or a champion at 168

[jqSide]

I never get these ****** threads.

Reality check: Golovkin is not that big of a star. He's not Mayweather or Pacquiao.

Either side Jacobs/Golovkin can make his own offer.

Bottom line: There's absolutely no reason why Jacobs can't make his own offer and send it to Team GG. Jacobs got PBC/SHO/Haymon behind him. Grrr...

How many PPV buys did Jacobs do? I thought so. GGG sold out the big boy arena in NY. Jacobs couldn't even fill half the jv arena in NY despite haymon giving away free tickets. Jacobs has the least respected belt at 160 nobody considers him anything but a paper champ. You trying too hard. Jacobs needs GGG more them the other way around.

GGG has always stated he wants to fight the best.

Ok, Ward was in a bigger weight class so that fight is a no go. Canelo wants GGG to drop down in weight to 155. Jacobs is the ONLY contender at 160 that offers GGG with legitimate claim as beating a top MW.

Why are you ok with his team making no offer to Jacobs? Especially when you guys accuse everyone of ducking GGG.

Whether GGG fights Johnson or not, won't change the fact that he's the recognized champ at 160, so what's the big deal if he fights Jacobs next.

And why are you speaking for Team Golovkin for what's adequate funds and what's not? Are you on their payroll, a part of their financial management team, etc??? I'm more than sure they can speak for themselves and tell us what they think is reasonable $$$ to make the fight happen without Deanrw interjecting.

If Jacobs KO'ing Quillin in one round makes him a paper champ then what does that make Kasim Ouma, Geale and Lemieux?

Should I even mention Rubio who also had already KO'd Lemiuex?

You act as if GGG's resume is to good for someone like Jacobs.

[bigdunny1]

GGG and Canelo are the best of the division and they are moving towards fighting each other. Everyone else including Jacobs is a huge drop off from them. Jacobs because he's signed to haymon who refuses to let his guys fight on HBO and Jacobs team throwing out ****** money requests means he is not a realistic option. If Jacobs wants to fight GGG get on the horn with haymon and tell him to let you fight on HBO and make a reasonable offer. Otherwise kick rocks, GGG don't need to fight you its the other way around you need him.

LOL your argument has failed and you know it. GGGs promoter has said himself, if Lara wants a shot please send us an offer. Why in the hell should he chase no-names who are only over pricing themselves. It is a waste of time. If they have any interest in fighting him, all they need to do is begin dialect, not post on twitter. That is the end of. GGG wants Canelo, starts talks, wanting BJS, begin talks, they even sent Ward an offer even though the 164 stuff was foolish. But it was still the beginning of dialog that did not pan out. Lara and Jacobs are lower down the totem pole, they need to start the dialog. It is how it works.
