I keep trying to tell ya'll nobody is afraid of GGG, they just want to be paid for the risk. Like Jacobs said, I'm not about to fight GGG for the same money I got fighting Quillin. And he's right.
There is no money in a GGG fight. That's why he has to travel to the UK to fight Eubank. Think about that for a minute. The IBF, WBA, WBC, undefeated MW champion of the world has to travel and is the B-side to a domestic level UK fighter. He doesn't have the money to get a domestic level fighter here over here. Canelo is bringin Smith here and Smith is the champ. GGG fans need to put the pressure on his team to come up with some money.
How much do you think Jacobs deserve? more than 1.5 millions? no way. He's an interim champion. He's ducking, plain and simple.

The "hate" steams from K2 and Sanchez letting shit fly out of their mouths, getting checked for it, and the whole Global Golovkin Defense Team running up in here like the giant G symbol got put out like Batman protecting Gotham.
But GGG is allowed his fanboys on here.
Same with his detractors and haters.

Guys are still getting career money to fight Golovkin, but they're expecting Mayweather/Canelo opponent level money.
You got some straight hate going on here. Liam Smith is an undercard fighter in the UK. Smoke some more...

Originally posted by _Maxi View PostWhy put the blame on GGG and GGG's team? Why can't Jacobs get paid 1.5 millions or 1 million, beat GGG and become the face of the MW division? simple, he doesn't think he can beat GGG. Maybe in two years when GGG is older. You can't talk about risk when the fighter is in your same division and you are his mandatory.

You admit GGG is a better fighter than Mora, BJS, Jacobs and Quillin yet you expect Jacobs to take the same amount of money to fight GGG as he did fighting Quillin? That's ridiculous. That's like expecting Breazele to take the same amount of money fighting Joshua as he did fighting Mansour. If the fight was as big as you're making it out to be there should be no problem getting Jacobs $3 mil. They can't get it because it's not worth that much money. They can't even get enough money to bring Eubank Jr over here. Eubank wasn't even the main event. He fought two fights before the main event. Groves-Murray had higher billing than him. The only way Jacobs is going to HBO to fight GGG is for a PPV. It's not a PPV fight.
Jacobs, Haymon, DiBella, and PBC isn't in business to make GGG a star. They're in the business to make Jacobs a star. And nobody becomes a star fighting GGG. There's no money or exposure to be gained fighting GGG. And GGG knows that and that's why he's chasing Canelo and going to the UK. These fighters are treating GGG the same way he treated Ward. He's not a big enough star and doesn't bring enough money so the risk isn't worth the reward. That 150,000 killed them.

Originally posted by Eastcoast View PostCome on man, Golovkin's opponents are the highest paid at MW. You say GGG has to travel to the UK, BJS just demanded $4mill! How much does Jacobs really think he's worth? If he can't get $4mill to fight Golovkin, it's not Golovkin's fault, it's b/c Danny's not that popular. His fight with Quillin tanked and just sat on his ass for the last 9 months now he's demanding a hand-out.

I watched the fight today. What order did Eubank fight? He was under Groves-Murray right? Wasn't Liam Smith the main event fighter his last two fights? How many main events does Smith have compared to Eubank Jr? They're both domestic level fighters and GGG is going to the UK to fight on a matchroom card.
