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

What do you gain by beating GGG?...Three MW titles and instant P4P status. So, why on earth are these MW contenders asking for a fortune for the opportunity to get in the ring with GGG?...

Listening to people ripping GGG for not offering these guys multi-million dollar deals is like watching a moron who can't solve a two piece puzzle. There's only one correct answer and it's not that hard to figure out...

multi-million? K2 isn't even close to Mayweather Jr. good one! but I guess 3-4 million is multi!

So, you're mocking me for being correct? Got it. What exactly do Jacobs or Saunders bring to the party that makes them worth 3-4 million?

Let me ask you this question & I am not taking any sides here..

How is it, that Eubank Jr reportedly would make upward of 3mil pounds for his fight with Golovkin but Danny & Saunders can't!!?

K2 as such won't pay ton of money but they want all the belt holders.. heck, they aren't even paying 4mil$ to GGG forget paying that to the B side..

[Derranged]

GGG is the better fighter, is the better draw (not by a great deal) and holds more titles. He clearly is the top middleweight and deserves more money than Jacobs, but GGG would be lucky to get 3 million.

Why don't you just admit that Jacobs is the one who's preventing this fight from happening? Just imagine if it were GGG demanding 4 or 5 million. You'd be singing a much different tune. You're not fooling anyone, this is nothing more than an attempt to make it look like GGG is ducking a top fighter when its clearly the other way around.

Stop bringing up Jacobs, Lil'G doesn't need the WBA Regular.

His current legacy is in limbo to solidify all the titles. Guess which fight does this? BJS you think? Who has the WBO? Wouldn't this bout be Lineal or Ring caliber? The sad thing ist that it's an accomplishment for sure, but most of Lil'G's belt earnings weren't really kosher fights. Therefore, get rid of all the drama, and pay BJS 3 or 4 million. Get all the belts, and if or when he moves to 168 his stock value in negotiations should rise, OR, as I said before, it doesn't, which is what K2 is mainly afraid of. 168 north is where Lil'G will get his respect.

And yeah, "multi" is technically in the TRIPLE digits, not double digits, and K2 can't even acquire a 3-4 million single digit for Saunders. pathetic. What good is Apple, HBO, Samsung, or Air Jordan. What's the point for those? Are those companies worth multi-millions or in the billion revenue market?

Technically, the definition of "multi" is "more than one."

Aside from giving up his own purse, where does GGG get the money from to pay Saunders what he wants? They going to take out a loan to cover the loss on the fight? Maybe I'm naive about how the boxing business works, but it makes no sense to me.

Ideally, Saunders and Junior would rematch in the UK with the winner facing GGG over there for all the MW belts. That'd be a bigger fight than either one facing GGG now. The only reason GGG would gain more respect at SMW is because he'd be at a size disadvantage. The timing is not quite right but getting close. Once Degale and Jack unify and Ramirez is open to a fight next year, GGG could unify MW and SMW if he's that good. That would be something. That would be what I'd shoot for if I were GGG.

GGG's highest ever purse is $2 million but let's get HBO to pay a lower ranked fighter with negligible fans $4-$5 million

Makes sense

These guys are dedicated to their cause, i'll give them that.

Same discussion about what it takes to get the belts will be revisited in 2020! Meanwhile lead roles in Game of Thrones makes more than "HBO Championship Boxing." And the execs love it!

Jacobs begging GGG team for money to cover those doctors expenses. Can't say I blame the lil twat. If worst comes to worst he can use those big dumbo ears to fly away from that GGG ass whooping.
