Ironically, you couldbuy a whole row of seats at a GGG fight for what it costs to get a whole decent ticket to a Floyd fight. And Floyd's last fight. A joke ass carnival act. Did about 5x as many buys as GGG's big drama show unification. And it was more expensive to purchase. People sure do spend a lotta money to sleep nowadays.

This didn't go any differently than most expected it to go. Would be great to see Jacobs get in the ring with GGG, but I just think he lacks the stones to do it. He would get demolished... especially since Mora easily dropped him.Comment

Why would Lara have to take less? Golovkin-Lara is a PPV fight (Lara's been in fights on premium TV since 2011, his one foray onto PPV was seen by more than double the folks that saw Golovkin's first PPV fight, Lara is a fighter that the boxing world sees as being legit, and Lara would be Golovkin's toughest opponent by far).
$750k plus a share of the PPV over 300k buys would be a fair enough deal to make, and I doubt that Lara(pending disclosure of what he's getting for the upcoming 5/21 fight) or his camp would turn that down.Comment

GGG doesn't have to fight guys that suck. Its by choice. He's not a heavyweight. He wants to be a star. Floyd, five division champ. Manny, eight division champ. Oscar, six division champ. None of those guys unified all the belts in any of those divisions. You become a star by being willing to step outta your comfort zone and make big fights. Biggest name in the game now, Canelo, fought Floyd at 152. Why isn't GGG willing to do what it takes to make big fights happen?Comment

Because, even a full 9 months after hanging up the gloves and simply travelling the world, I doubt that Floyd is even near 165lbs at this point. Floyd gets back in the gym, locks in for a hard 8-week camp, and I'd bet that he's in the low 150s with weeks to the fight.why is it a physical missmatch ? GGG would come down to 154. Unlike 168 where is ggg should gain 8 pounds. Another thing is ggg is 1 inch higher than Floyd and Floyds rich is bigger than Golovkins .As you see Glolvkin has almost no any advantages over Floyd. Ward is much bigger and has much bigger rich than GGG
Golovkin is likely a fit 170 or so, before he starts his diet/cut to the fight; on fight night, Golovkin would likely outweight Floyd by at least 15 pounds.Comment
