Comments Thread For: Saunders: I Was Offered 1.5 Million For Golovkin, Not 4 Million

[Outwest Exp 355]

1.5 mil sounds fair to me.

[turnedup]

Jacobs has been flattened by a lesser puncher than GGG, it isn't an insinuation or missive, it's a fact Jacobs and Saunders who went life and death with novice Eubanks, fights against GGG wouldn't be exciting fights in the least, Jacobs versus Sanders has competitive wrote all over it, as does Jacobs versus Eubanks.

Maybe Saunders would have the fights to come back to but I very much doubt it, GGG would fold his ass and their would be zero demand to see him afterwards.

I don't care what money Saunders gets or is offered, I don't want to see GGG versus any one of Canelo, Saunders or Jacobs the fights just don't excite me, mix those three against each other I believe you have some competitive match ups.

GGG don't have any fights at 160 for me to get excited over, we are talking about a guy who was prepared to go to 168 for Carl Froch, you believe he would have struggled in that fight ? No, me neither. GGG should be campaigning at 168 he's too small for divisions higher and clearly too strong for everyone at 160.

If I was a blow hard GGG fan I would be wanting my man to clear up 168, he has it in him yet clearly their isn't a money fight there unless maybe Ward beats Kovalev and moves back down as a ppv entity, or maybe a catch weight between GGG vs Kovalev to prove who the best in the world is at something like 170-173, what is the weight GGG weighs in at fight night, could it be 170+, yeh I thought so.

Just asking for clarification on your post is all, I think there were some things within it that could be mistaken as having another meaning than what you meant.

Saunders doesn't sound too bright. It sounds like he has already written this off as a loss and just wants to be compensated. I am not feeling this fight based on what keeps coming out of Saunders' mouth.

Saunders knows GGG is an animal at 160, in fact everyone knows GGG would be a champ at 168 now Ward isn't around. Saunders wants rewarding with what he feels he is due should he be putting his title on the line, he earnt that right. All GGG and his team have to do is pay him and not just peanuts he can earn against the likes of Jacobs and potentially a Eubanks rematch, why take an absolute hammering for the same money you could pick up against someone like Jacobs and Eubanks and look competitive against and in all likelihood still have a fruitful and financially rewarding career afterwords ? Against GGG his stock will be shattered concerning his future.

Whatever man, you keep rooting for your mismatches. You're easily pleased, I prefer competitive fights.

give me 3 weeks to train and i will fight GGG for 1.5

Don't expect me to win.

Saunders is the type of champ that fights domestic voluntaries and low level mandatory while claiming all the top tier boxers are ducking him.

are dismissing Jacobs for that KO loss? That was Dmitry Pirog who KOd Jacobs...he wouldve been the Champ today had he not gotten injured.

Watched the Billy Joe interview on IFilm yesterday , it was Gold and Him talking about his next opponet was hilarious

But what he said about a GGG figt I agree with the dude 100%

The guy beat all his domestic counterparts and just got his title, let the dude breathe a bit before we throw him in the lions den for decent not great $.

So basically:

We need to hear Abel Sanchez or Loeffler saying that fighting in the UK isn't a problem, or that they will only fight in the USA.

Then we need to hear what Loeffler or Sanchez will have to say abouy Saunders' latest comments.

This we will know how serious Loeffler and Sanchez are about wanting the WBO, because it is Lil'Gs legacy to unify all the belts.

Why not give Saunders 1.7 and have it at the UK?

[Shadoww702]

I'll take Saunders word over Sanchez and Loeffler! Those two couldn't keep their lies straight to save their life.
