    Not sure what this issue with any of that is. Thats what negotiations are for.

      I'd take Saunders over Jacobs, due to how BJS looked against Eubank & Lee. He handled their power just fine and his boxing skills were superior to theirs. Danny's wins over Truax & Mora were nothing special and his fight with Quillin ended so quick, it was hard to get any real assessment off it.

        Maybe, but Saunders had no faith in it. He avoided that fight as well.

          They're already laying out the line -"If the numbers aren't right, we won't fight".

          Danny's the challenger and he's faaaaaaaar from a star, given his numbers from the Quillin and Mora fights. He should be hungry as hell and jumping for this fight, not giving himself a backdoor out of it. He was already offered $1.5mill and turned it down, I'm sure he's going to get more than that now, so I don't see how the numbers won't be good enough.

            It made no sense from Saunders perspective. Jacobs doesn't bring the money GGG or Canelo does, and Jacobs wanted BJS to come into his backyard, lol.

                And the problem with that is? Literally any top fighter's team would say that. Point being saying that in of itself doesn't mean they are avoiding anything. You are reaching. Let the negotiations play out. Golovkin needs that fight just as much as Jacobs does right now.

                  GGG said he wasn't dropping an ounce to fight Canelo before negotiations even started. Knowing Canelo was fighting at 155. I bet they won't say GGG was looking for a way out of the fight. That's how backwards these GGG fans minds are. They don't operate with common sense.

                    Made no sense, but hes not fighting ANYONE with a pulse. Hes sitting on the belt, talking crap online.

                      He says that but it's not likely to happen...

                      Keep in mind if they got to a purse bid, Jacobs will get clipped by the split. If he vacates his belt, which I wouldn't blame him with that split, Loeffler can just say 'well we tried to make the fight'. Then he can go onto fight Saunders in Feb. without any obligations from WBA for another 18 months.

                      They can literally reject every single offer until that bid, which I expect them to do.
