    So what's a fair price to pay Saunders or Jacobs?

    With the seeming reluctance of Canelo to fight GGG this year, what do you think would be fair compensation to these two guys should they be interested in a fight with Golovkin?

    Jacobs career high payday was $1.5 million vs Quillen..

    Saunders career high I couldn't find on google any purses of his? I assume he made close to a million vs Lee and maybe even Eubanks?

    IMO a $3 million purse for Jacobs is a fair deal

    Saunders I'm not sure because I don't know what he made before but I'm guessing around $2.5-3 would also be a fair price for him...

    I agree with you, but think the purses should be backwards. Saunders needs to be lured into a match, and he knows it. Expect at least 3M for him. Hell, K2/Golovkin may even pay higher and take a loss on the match just to finally be able to say 'unified, undisputed' champ.

    When it comes to Jacobs, Golovkin doesn't need him and he doesn't sell well. K2 will offer him the same 1.5m and maybe go up to 2m.

      Same as Lemeuix 1.5 Mill for both. unless it's in the UK at which point Saunders gets 2 Mill.

          Apparently Saunders was offered around £1.5 mil for a rematch with Eubank.

            Let's be realistic, $1.5 million is not going to get Jacobs anywhere close to fighting GGG...he's gonna want like double that or even more probably...the offer should start at $2million IMO... Go from there...

              what's "fair" and what it'll take to get them in the ring are two very different sums

                    Almost 3 I guess.

                    I would imagine he'd want more to fight Golovkin. I know I would.
