Comments Thread For: Loeffler: As Soon as Golovkin Has a Fight, Everyone Wants Him!

[Sweet_Science2]

My bad for getting you confused with someone else. But that doesn't make my arguments any less valid.

You keep insisting that GGG fight Lara or DeGale. But let me ask you this: were you okay with GGG/Eubank Jr? Because if you were, then your anger should be directed straight at Eubank for the GGG/Brook mismatch.

And it's been asked before: are you really serious that DeGale should abandon unifying against Jack just so he can fight GGG? That could possibly put his unification bid at danger. You're basically saying that DeGale abandon his career goals just so GGG critics like you can be satisfied. That's what you're saying. You simply have no regards for any other boxer, do you? Let's have the clear SMW champion abandon his own career goal just so you can be satisfied? The ego on you. There was no one closer to DeGale's situation then Hearn, & Hearn offered Brook...so, in that sense, shouldn't you be mad at Hearn as well? K2 didn't specifically request Brook...Hearn offered him.

And Lara was never going to be a viable opponent in the UK. You can't keep pressing that matchup despite it not making sense for a September fight in the UK. If Lara was a bigger draw, then maybe you'd have a case. But as it stands, the guy can't even fill up a venue in his own backyard. A fight with Lara makes more sense in MSG, rather than O2 Arena.

You keep insisting that GGG cherry-picked Brook. But in order to cherry pick, you need OPTIONS. GGG clearly has none. His team was at the mercy of Hearn to produce a British fighter. Otherwise, they would have had to scrap the whole UK event & made a lesser-money event in the US. GGG/Brook is a mismatch, not a cherry pick. Next thing you're going to say is that Wade was a cherry pick. Ha!

Look, if GGG was a huge ppv draw like FMJ, then finding opponents wouldn't be a problem. But as it stands, GGG's drawing power can barely hold FMJ's shoes, let alone fill them. So they can't entice every viable opponent to take the big money fight with him. It's good money. It's just not big money. That's why they had to settle for a mismatch. If you don't want to see the logic, that's on you.

This is a cherry pick nothing more nothing less!

They are not ducking GG..they are ducking the lowball numbers thrown at them from K2.

Really? Explain how...


Saunders was offered a career high purse but turned it down.
Eubanks was offered a career high purse, plus sky pay per view upside-- Turned it down
Canelo will make much more $$ in a fight with GGG on PPV than with any other fighter, yet turned down the fight til 'possibly' next year.
Jacobs claimed he was offered 'Quillin type of money' to fight GGG (which was Jacobs highest career purse by far) yet wants to wait 1-1.5 years to fight GGG.

So your statements are false. Saunders/ Eubank/ Jacobs would have made career high purses if they fought GGG, especially when you factor in PPV revenue. Canelo is the only fighter who makes more money than GGG on fight night, due to his PPV status. All other MW fighters make less $$ than GGG.


Its very obvious that they are dodging him like the plague. Pathetic

Such as? I don't think Eubank, Saunders, Jacobs are willing to fight him but haven't heard them talk any **** since GGG-Brook was announced. GGG wasn't willing to fight Ward but haven't heard Ward say anything about GGG in a while. They are trying to get credit for being willing to fight DeGale despite not offering him a deal and yet DeGale hasn't been saying anything about him either.

Maybe I missed something as I'm not on twitter but no idea who they are referring to. Canelo has been criticising GGG-Brook but has also openly stated he's not willing to fight GGG so not like you can accuse him of saying "we'll fight him" either.

If anything Loeffer is guilty of exactly what he's accusing others of. He never at any point mentioned wanting the DeGale fight before signing for Brook, never tried to get Hearn to agree to it. Instead they announced the Brook fight and then when it was too late "oh yeah we would've fought DeGale".

A lot of Truth here . . . .

Just because it's a career high payday doesn't make it the right pay.

Nobody is dodging that old bum...hell...a WW is about to fight him.

Jacobs is GGG's madatory...he must fight him or get stipped.

Jacobs knocked back 1.5 million to fight GGG and is fighting Mora for 500k

He is either the most ****** ****er on the planet or is ducking

DeGale declined, dumb a$$. And if you want to go on some argument that DeGale would have taken that fight, have we heard anything from his camp to deny Loeffler's claim? Nope.
