Comments Thread For: Golovkin on Canelo: He is Businessman, Not Idol of Boxing

Not anything near that. He'd be lucky to get 200K. Monroe got 100K. Stevens got 50K.

Nope, Stevens got 300k. Ggg made 400k for that fight. Geale made 600, Rubio 450, Lemieux 1.5m, for future reference

Canelo is letting these suits turn him into a turd.

Thanks for the correction. I thought that's what I read around here.

Yup. Sad thing is, is not GGG fault, its whoever is advising him. Their trying to use the Lara tactics, talk s.hit and hope the media and fans push to the point to fight is made. DLH is not falling for that again. They have the upper hand and if the WBC threatens to strip canelo, I'm sure he'll gladly relinquish the belt. When you're a superstar like canelo, you don't need belts.

Amen! Preach brother!

That's bull**** because Canelo took high risk, low reward fights like Lara and Trout. And he took those fights with Mayweather and Cotto showdowns on Deck.

Lara was not a big enough name and didn't make business sense for GGG.

So you tell me who the businessman is?

[PoserExposer]

You a moron fool! You just repeated what I said. I didn't say GGG commanded PPV's & he doesn't, Ward doesn't command PPV's for GGG to duck someone who's less of a draw than anyone in all of boxing...but GGG ducked? You're a moron![QUOTE=CaneloMaidana;16630638]Commanded ppv buys? He sold 97k. Canelo gets to duck like Coward did.

He's from the Floyd school which is ruining boxing.

Gennady Golovkin is doing all he can do to lift his name to greater heights.

I don't see uncle Al letting him go for that cheap. I say north of 500k no doubt. A million wouldn't shock me. Look at the ticket prices for this fight compared to the Monroe Jr fight at the same venue. And when Wade's purse is announced people will say he had to pay him that much because it's a mandatory fight.

I'm actually curious about that. Let's see.
