Comments Thread For: Korobov on Golovkin: I've Waited a Long Time For This Shot

They don't, he who pays the piper calls the tune. HBO are pushing and paying Golovkin.

They're not interested in Haymon because Haymon's only interested in robbing them so he can get his share.

Do you have documented proof of this?

Yeah, this should be good.

why not andy lee? he was gonna fight ggg if he beat saunders so ggg should do him a favour. hes about the same difficulty as bjs anyway.

hahah so canelo is better cause of his close wins over trout and lara? Or because he beat up old guys with names like cotto, mosley and baldamor? Considering he's THE main guy at MW, yeah other guys in that division are suppose to chase him. But i'll leave you be and praise a fat average fighter in Canelo. If you really want to get behind a mexican fighter i say go with Gilberto Ramirez or Francisco vargas or even el gallo estrada.

canelo brings the fame and the money you dumb ass..
ggg-lara = regular hbo
canelo-lara = ppv
in other words canelo is the face of boxing right now, ggg not even a ppv fighter...
can you tell the difference???
it makes a big difference for lara...
think before you post...

GGG not a ppv fighter? Please tell me who else would bring a big money ppv for canelo other than GGG? The cotto fight should of done 1.5 or at least a mil instead it only did 900,000. Canelo cannot handle ppv by himself. If GB is serious that his next fight is ppv to build up the GGG fight (if he does fight him) it will bomb.

ggg cant carry a ppv by him self , canelo can, that's the difference between a ppv fighter an a regular hbo fighter...
even the 325k ppv vs lara was a success , 150k was not...
if canelo can fight no-fans lara on ppv , then he can fight anyone...
just remember not every canelo fight will be ppv, since he has a contract with hbo and is obligated to do at least 1 regular hbo fight per year...

This was after 2+ million people bought the Mayweather vs Canelo fight.

I'd call that a huge disappointment, dropping down to 325000 purchases and fighting a legitimate opponent at your real weight...

375k vs Angulo gave canelo close to 9 million, plus similar earnings for the network, 325k was prob 7 mill, that's still a lot of money for both network and fighter... on the other hand as per K2 ggg needed 200k for his ppv to be successful and it failed... just because you were disappointed by the numbers doesn't mean it was not a success ...

so the new ppv star canelo can only sell 350k while past guys like oscar, manny and froid sold in millions or near 800ks? Yup sounds like a real ppv star to me. Stick to supporting your fatass catchweight daddy until he finally mans up and fights guys his size instead of his planned fight with rosado haha
