    Loeffler talks Canelo, Lara, Wade, Ward, Fury, Gonzalez, Jacobs

    Starts at:

    2:40-As far as sellng the fight for Wade he's a four time amateur national champion. Well known on the East Coast. He's undefeated and 25, just like Canelo. Tickets are selling faster for this fight than the Monroe Jr fight

    5:48-Iron clad agreement signed by all parties that the winner of Khan-Canelo must fight the winner of GGG-Wade. The winner of Canelo-Khan has 15 days to agree to fight the winner of GGG-Wade or be stripped. If they agree they'll have 30 days to negotiate and if they can't come to an agreement they'll go to purse bid.

    8:15-Talks about the Lara fight. Realistically the fight doesn't make sense because he's not marketable and GGG is trying to unify titles. Ward also wasn't marketable. Ward sent the contract after the Lemieux fight was signed. He told Roc Nation GGG's goal is to unify the division and they would go after BJS-Lee winner. Bernard Hopkins is serious possibility at 168 and Bernard is serious about the fight

    11:59-Jacobs fight is possible. He could see it happening and always had a good relationship with Haymon and the money is there. Asked about the network situation but said it's not an issue to talk about right now. If GGG fights Canelo and wins or gets the WBC title he'll go after BJS again.

    14:50-Said the 164 statement about Ward was a random email to Dan Rafael about Klitschko's purse bid in Panama. There were never any negotiations. It was a hypothetical question posed to Loeffler by Rafael and he responded with 164. GGG is a small middleweight so if he's going to move out of his division it's going to be against a top draw. Floyd moved up to fight Cotto. He didn't move up to fight Lara.

    17:55-Rematch with Fury is signed but no location or tickets yet. German soccer season limits locations in Germany and dates. It could happen in Germany or UK.

    I checked out when they started talking about midget boxing (Arroyo-Gonzalez)

    Golovkin vs. Jacobs would be a hell of a fight.

        The lack of follow up questions is maddening.

        - Lara isn't marketable

        - Then you respond "Well, some fans didn't think Monroe was very marketable but you fought him"

        I want to hear his explanation on that.

            I have a feeling Wade's purse is going to surprise a lot of people.

              Well Hopkins is also pretty expensive as well. He's gonna demand at least $1M.

                Ward wasn't marketable, but a 51 year old Hopkins at 168 is?

                    Yeah no doubt but he does good ratings, and he's doing something historical. I'm not into that fight though, but better than Wade or Tureano and much more high profile
