By a show of hands, who defended Pac refusing random tests/40 mil, but attack Jacobs?

It's amazing that you have the nerve to ask what has anyone over come when you don't even know the person. I'm Mexican you fawking ******ed idiot

Only black matters doe.

The arbitrary dichotomy of expectations for certain fighters and the disdain for others that do the same thing is as clear as this lovely water in the Ba*****

Chuckguy just said that GGG shouldn't fight Lara because Chuckguy fears for the smaller Lara's safety because he's moving up from 154.

Now all of a sudden these GGG cuckholds not only understand "bizness" for GGG, but they now fear for the foe's of GGG and said foe's safety

This is truly hilarious and embarrassing at the same time

[Chollo Vista]

You keep saying smart "bizness" move first off it's business

Are you really this dense?

Don't lecture me on how to spell. This was obviously purposely misspelled to poke fun at certain posters who know who they are. I will present words on here that will make you open a new tab and go to google to define.

But you're up here lecturing me on how to spell "business" even though I've already spelled it correctly literally hundreds of times on boxingscene?

You need to go read a book and do something productive with yourself

It is simple people give passes or the very least the benefit of the doubt to fighters they support. While fighters they do not like get the opposite treatment. Not generally a major problem with this because usually there are at least 2 sides to a story so both sides have a point. Some of the best can be analytical and objective toward both sides but even in these cases, no one can do it even close to 100% of the time because they will make a good point that goes toward one side and be forced to defend that point then pride takes over.


The problems really comes in as to why people end up on one side or the other, but that is always how it has been since I have been here.

Jacobs isn't worth 5 mil fighting Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Dude is a straight up under card fighter at best, along with Quillin.

Both highly delusional "stars".

And to be honest, even Golovkin isn't a star.

He's in the making and trying to get the middleweight division in order, so if anything we should be thanking him?

So unless you support fighters that clearly duck, you'd have a differing opinion.

Golovkin isn't low balling, he almost gave Lemieux a 50/50 split? Forgot the details. I think Golovkin 2m, David 1.5m? Correct me if I'm wrong.

And I think he was a much bigger star compared to Lemieux then.

He's nowhere near crossover status(no defining fights in the near future that I've heard of).

And yes Jacob is worth much less than Golovkin-- can't really deny that. So whatever his price is now, is ridiculous.

He should be taking risks at 500k money

Not fighting Mora.

Fighting Mora, probably 100k's worth?

I know a bunch of middle class people that'd go through 2 months of training to fight Mora for 25k marketed as
"the clerk" vs Sergio Mora, and it'd get more views than Jacobs perhaps.

This is a good point. Maidana, ghost, berto, etc. didn't get anywhere near $5 million to fight the biggest money maker in boxing history but somehow Jacobs should get it for fighting Golovkin whose career is just starting to build. Truly bizarre.

Jacobs admitted he was offered the same he got versus Quillin, $1.5 million, to fight Golovkin. In truth he's not even worth that.

Bingo to this whole post. Green sent for it; Specifically, a great big "bingo" to the bolded.


Why these cuckholds can't admit this and resort to using idiotic rationale is baffling.

MY POINT IS THAT JUST BECAUSE YOU LACE UP GLOVES.
YOU'RE NOT ENTITLED TO MILLION DOLLAR PAY CHECKS.

Especially if you're not selling. If you're not taking risks, against those equally as good as you, you shouldn't claim absurd paychecks or ask for certain things.

It's only in this forum that I keep reading, wow this AVERAGE boxer deserves millions for his family since his health is on the line?

Are you kidding me?
There are normal civilian jobs that expose you to death at higher rates than boxing.
So a bunch of average boxers asking for 3 million and such just makes me roll my eyes.

I work in finance as I've said, and I know traders who are do and die everyday to make serious cash. One blow up--they're on suicide watch for the most part. That's some serious trauma, not fighting freaking Mora trauma as he probably doesn't even apply boxing technicals at high levels of thought(game theory) whatsoever beyond a high school level of thinking.
If you don't perform in some Dragon Ball Z type fights-- you shouldn't get paid.

Just because you're a boxer-- you're not ruled out of realistic economics.
Not that hard to grasp.
Jacobs priced himself out, so no matter the points of Golovkin not paying, this or that. Jacobs doesn't even really truly deserve a shot at Golovkin IMHO.
Maybe in this soft era, it's a decent fight--but for the most part, I don't see anything great.

If you made it as a crossover status-- you deserved every bit of it for the amount of risks, skills, control and salesmanship skill you obtain in a career.

last weekend, all the fans at the Barclays Center were booing when they announced Thurman the winner because Shawn Porter was the fighter with the lighter skin complexion
