Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Manager: Saunders, Jacobs Are Priorities For Us

How much is Brook getting for this fight? It must be more than the $1-1.5 million he was offered for the Vargas fight, but less than the $4 million they couldn't afford to pay Saunders. What, somewhere in the $2-3 million dollar range?

Brook is getting 4m minimum. It's not Team Ggg that offered him that much, his promoter is making the offer

It's one thing giving things up, but it takes another losing millions. That's just asinine.

Paying him well and paying him above his worth is one thing. Paying him more than GGG would get and losing millions on it is asinine.

They'd be better served to wait until Suanders loses it. It's not like they have other big fight options being held up.

K2 has done a great job building a Eastern European fighter into a brand. Most fighters from there never have this chance.

If Degale (only guy at 168 worth going up for) becomes available, they've already said they'd consider fighting him.

Waiting for Canelo and Suanders hasn't stopped them from getting other major fights. When dealing with other fighter they run into same issues. Lara wants too much. Ward wanted 50/50 more than a year in advance of a potential fight.

It's always same story.

Good response. I love a good boxing chat. Many points and opinions and angles to consider. I still believe that sacrifice is the way to go. Can't look at the money left on the table while your still making the table. Take the fight in the UK where the most money would be offered up so GGG can get a good purse out of it too. Beat him win the belt gain more stock and fans and on to the next one. Sometimes if you really want something you have to be willing to lose something else to get it. In this case it's the belt for money. But as you said he can always just wait it out as well. That's always an option.if you choose to wait thought that is a choice so don't complain.
