There is a HUGE difference between those purses.


Brook will not generate more money than Saunders would.


So what does that HUGE difference mean ?

Wrong

Just to repeat: Hearn bring a global media giant to the table (plus a guaranteed sell-out via his relationship with Stubhub) whilst Warren brings a comparative gnat

Plus, and I know you'll hate this, you need to factor in that GGG is a big, big star in the UK boxing scene and that for all bar Canelo, the US is behind the UK when it comes to the top end of earners in boxing

Anyway, according to Fat Dan, K2 offered Saunders 2.2 million POUNDS (or 3.5 million $) for a fight in the US so the offers arent all that different

Saunders has admitted many times that GGG beats him so seems content to go down Chickenelo route for similar (and probably far less money) as he poses a far lesser threat

did you just say that fight will sellout because Hearn has a good relationship with stubhub?

rubbish LMAO

why would the buying public give a fk about that?

That fight will either sell, or NOT sell, because of Brook/Golovkin..... and I think that Saunders/Golovkin would sell just as well, if not better.

And I will believe Saunders, before I believe Fat Dan..... and BJS said thay offered him 1.5mil.

But link me to the article where Dan made that 3.5mil statement anyway, because that is the first I heard.

Stubhub, in effect, underwrites the live gate by committing to the purchase of a certain number of tickets

If the public does not buy them from Stubhub, then it's on the latter not Hearn as his return is locked in

As for whether you believe that Saunders/Golovkin would sell just as well, that is totally irrelevant as Frank Warren obviously didnt think so and he is BJS' promoter

Do you have a link to that 3.5mil comment from Rafael ?

First I heard.

The fact is, Saunders would be an idiot if he fought Golovkin for less than Brook got paid.

Worst thing that happened to the MW division was Saunders beating Andy Lee smfh

Cotto/Martinez is still the worse thing imo, but all the foolishness between BJS and Eubank is beginning to wear me down.

2.2 million pounds in January was roughly $3.5 million

That was for a fight in the US and Frank Warren had the opportunity to put together a fight in the UK but obviously didnt do it

That " offer " did not have a source, it was not an actual quote.

Saunders has repeatedly denied that rumor.....

Saunders: I Was Offered 1.5 Million For Golovkin, Not 4 Million.....

Don't believe everything you read on the internet.
