Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: If GGG Fight Was Now, Canelo Gets 90-10 Split

[_original_]

That's being a bit too generous to Mr. 97k.

No surprise with that.

Canelo can make big money with other guys GGG can't.

Bottom line GGG needs Canelo not the other way around.

Sounds like a tactic to make K2 say, "**** this fight and **** you ODLH".


GGG vs. a no-name did 150k buys. Canelo vs. a no-name but good fighter has done 300k and 400k buys.

Oscar's desperate to drain GGG down to a point where he doesn't put Canelo in the hospital. He'll probably settle on something like 70/30 with a 157 CW.

Crazy that there are still ******s pushing the 97K number for the Lemieux PPV.

[Nay_Sayer]

It's just a negotiating tactic. I don't think Canelo will get 90%, but he does deserve the bigger split of the revenues. 70/30 sounds right

70/30? More like 85/15...

[mathed]

That won't deter GGG. He'll probably fight Canelo for $10K just to get him in the ring.

[SilverMiles]

Asinine comment by Oscar, everyone and their mommy know the split isn't going down like that. At the end of the day Canelo is getting 70% and GGG is getting 30%.

[BoxingIsGreat]

Or they can give him a flat rate of $4 million, his biggest purse, but at the 160 limit.

[FrankieClutch]

70/30? More like 85/15...

You think Canelo can negotiate 85?

[Nay_Sayer]

Crazy that there are still ******s pushing the 97K number for the Lemieux PPV.

You have the official PPV numbers?

Everything is coming out just to avoid this fight
