Lol $4 million. That isn't even enough for the both of them.

WTF is up with that ******ED **** ?

ludicrous !

IDK man. But they really think nobody should do anything until GGG figures out what his next move is. Like he's Mayweather calling shots, packing arenas, and selling millions of PPV's. They want him to be great sooooooo bad. But a win over Canelo and Sauders won't make him great. Taking chances makes you great. He had a chance to do something great and he said no thank you.

I would say there's a big difference between asking for a couple of mil to fight the most devastating guy on the planet and being ridiculous.

Guys here are acting like BJS should take peanuts which is downright ******.

So what is he worth? Because earlier you said what matters is what he feels hes worth. So what if he feels hes worth 10 million?

Exactly like this rubbish here LMAO

So, Saunders should somehow feel compelled to fit in with Golovkin's schedule, and happily accept all of his terms, just because you want Golovkin to get his hands on Saunders title.

wow

Titlists are usually discussed in relation to each other; Saunders' name is never mentioned without GGG. Anytime he doesn't have a fight lined up, he and Frank Warren are asked about GGG and if they're in negotiations. Yes, he should be trying to "fit in with GGG's schedule", and vice versa. How else can this fight happen if they don't? Again, Saunders can always fight some other top 20 MW if the GGG bout doesn't get made. The problem comes if/when he's fighting unknown or over-matched opponents just to stay busy because he isn't being paid what he thinks he's worth. He's 26 and been out of the ring for 6 months already, and he only fought twice in 2104 and 2015.

It's not up to me to determine his worth, neither is up to some guy on a forum. He doesn't need to fight for pennies because someone wants GGG to collect all the belts.

It's a dangerous dangerous fight. He should get paid very well for it. He already made loads vs Eubank, so I'm guessing he'd at least need double or triple what he got for that fight.
