    GGG should fight Jacobs on Showtime if HBO won't pay the money.
    They did it last year with Kovalev and Stevenson. If they aren't gonna allow GGG to fight off network they then K2 needs to come up with the money to pay the purses and put it on PPV.

      If he stopped them, they would all leave him.
      So now you insulting me and saying I'm ****** and I can't read?

      "[The deal with Canelo] got made smoothly, because I know Oscar for a long, long time and he's always been good to me. I always have to get [my adviser] Al Haymon involved in this, so Al Haymon was involved in the negotiations. Everything went so smooth," Khan said to Steve Bunce of BoxNation.
      British star Amir Khan (31-3, 19KOs) says the negotiations for his upcoming fight with Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez (46-1-1, 32KOs) was very easy to get done. Khan moves up by eight pounds to challenge Canelo for the WBC middleweight world title at a catch-weight of 155-pounds.


      Amir Khan wants the fighters and promoters who use Al Haymon as an excuse for preventing fights to reconsider. The powerful boxing manager didn’t block Khan from making a daring two-weight-class jump to fight middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez.

        That's bs that Kahns team said after the fact to save face after it was reported Haymon had no part to do with the fight and had to step aside.

        HBO doesn't work with Haymon and golden boy has a lawsuit again him. Haymon had no part of that fight.

          Oscar even said Haymon was involved but he didn't have to work directly with him. Just stop talking to me you ******

              Oscar didn't work directly with Haymon, because Haymon didn't do ****. Fhe negotiation process was between Kahn and Oscar, haymons only job was to stay out the way and let his fighter get paid.

              Amid the divisiveness inflamed with both Oscar De La Hoya’s Golden Boy Promotions and veteran fight promoter Bob Arum’s Top Rank Inc. currently suing Haymon in federal court for claims of monopolistic practices, De La Hoya reached out to Khan and found him*agreeable to the deal, with Haymon's blessing.
              See, Oscar didn't talk to Haymon, he talked to team Kahn and got the deal done.

                Right now everyone want to fight GGG but when the time comes everyone hide from the Kazakh beast.

                I understand it tought; anybody see themselves beating GGG.

                I only give Canelo a small opportinuty.

                  Will he actually do it, or is he just talking?
                  Jacobs will never fight Golovkin. Jacobs will seek a rematch with Peter Quillen in his next fight, while claiming he will fight Golovkin in 2018.

                    The other way is that Jacobs is basically irrelevant anyway so even when he ducks Golovkin it will be forgotten in 2 days.

                    He knows Haymon pays decent money to fight weak opposition so he'll be alright.
                    After he complained about not being a star he had to watch people from Toledo drive 7 hours to come see Easter win a world title (something he's never done) and they left before his fight. Brooklyn is closer to Reading than Toledo. Brooklyn didn't show up for Jacobs. Easter showed him what it takes to be a star last night.

                      Here's a sign when fighters want to duck fights:

                      They negotiate through the media, whining and crying about how cheap the offer is. Jacobs won't even talk to Haymon and use his services, which he's paying huge amount of money for.

                      Mark my word.
