    I don't care about this guy. He can fight Mora as many times he wants to. GG is not even making that kind of money himself. It's no different from saying I'll open a business if you give me the money. As opposed to I'mma beat the guy and the money will follow.

At the same time, looking at the Froch/Grove II fight, stadium fights have an insane overhead and I'd understand if they took the safe route and had it at the O2.
        No worries, I apologies too for what I said to you. This fight can definitely happen at the 02 or Wembley, the only problem now is Skysports. Hopefully after tomorrow's meeting we would have a cleared picture of needs to happen next. I see Eubank getting taken out by the 7/8 rounds but he would sell this fight with his mouth, his dad's antics/showmanship. Hopefully it would be Wembley.

          All I read was...
          I need more money in my retirement plan.


          Jacobs, you literally aren't worth squat.
          How you make a million fighting Quillin who's also worth squat is beyond me entirely.

          How are people paying these under-card fighters?
          To make money, you have to seriously be an extraordinary craftsman in the sport of boxing-- not average by any stretch.

          EVERY SINGLE OTHER CAREER, and I promise, is set that way.
          You can be a doctor, but there's only 5% of doctors that are above just being a doctor-- and cut their own checks.

          It's the reality.

          Jacobs, you're not even a ****ing doctor, or close in terms of skills; you're pre-med at best.

          Mayweather= Doctor + more
          So he gets paid deservingly so, as so any of the actual stars.

          More elements than skills are involved, such as salesmenship etc.
          but ya'll get my point.

            Jacobs was spoilt by being grossly overpaid for the Quillin fight.

            Fact is that as a non-titlist with negligible supporter base, he shouldnt be earning anywhere near 1.5 million per fight

              About the 1 min mark, Jacobs say's they're offering him the same money for GGG that he made for Quillin ($1.5mill), which means K2 is structuring the deal the same as they did for Lemieux. Danny's calling that chump change.

              Furthermore Jacobs' is trying to dictate the fight be in Brooklyn at Barclays rather than MSG, where Golovkin normally fights. Quite the shot caller.

                Another Haymon fighter using the fight he was wildly overpaid as a barometer for how he should get paid for all other fights. It's kinda sad, really.

                  I'm honestly happy to hear they're negotiating. Maybe we get the fight in December after Golovkin/Eubank and Jacobs/Mora. Only thing is, it likely won't be in NY b/c of the new insurance rule (which kills the the MSG/Barclay argument). Probably LV.

                      Who are you to say if a fighter is overpaid??

                      Where does that peasant mentality come from in this day and age???


                      K2 doesn't want the "top guys" to face GGG judging from the shi.t offers they make.

                      Anybody that thinks GGG vs Jacobs in NY wouldn't make a killing are fooling themselves.

                      That could easily be hyped into a huge deal
