Why can't Team GGG pay Jacobs the 4-5 mil he asks for? Khan made 13 mil vs Canelo

    I thought the reason why Jacobs is demanding this kind of money is because of the risk involved. Yet it doesn't apply to GG. He's asked to accept less money in a Ward fight. Man this GG guy should retire and disappear. They really don't like him. Nah.
    The Ward offer, if I remember correctly, was for a 50/50 split of the take at 168lbs, so not sure what you're talking about. Beyond that, no one is saying that Golovkin should have to fight for free; rather than making $2m to fight, Golovkin would now make $1.8m, with some money taken from the undercard to free up $700k-$750k to chase down a better opponent.

    hilarious to see you try to spin it.

        K2 made Danny the same offer they made Lemieux, he said no. If I'm Loeffler I call the WBA to go ahead a call a purse bid, Jacobs can take 25% of who ever wins the bid.
        Why do you feel the need to flatly make **** up? If you have a single link where Loeffler even talked up trying to make the fight, let alone send an offer, please share.

          LMAO!!! So now K2/GGG are afraid of Billy freakin Saunders? I swear you clowns will say anything. If GGG could have got the Saunders fight it would be "he was afraid of the young, powerful Eubank so they went with Saunders!"

          No way you guys actually believe in the crap you type.

            I doubt it if he thinks like that.

            Fighters work too hard to be afraid or worship one another.

              It sold 100-150k PPV depending on the source.

              Plus what it generated with worldwide ratings. I watched it in Cable TV in Argentina. I also watched in Cable TV Jacobs Quillin.
              So, according to your own numbers, Golovkin did $1.6m at the live gate and cleared somewhere between $2.5m-$3.8m (for the promoters/fighters to split up).

              And nice try with the "worldwide ratings" nonsense; the main event came on 3am in London, 4am in Germany, and 5am in Russia (for a fight where no one in those markets likely knew who the **** David Lemieux was).

              You watch the fight in Argentina; for ****s and giggles, what did the audience number for Golovkin-Lemieux actually look like, lol.
