    is GGG a boxing business man?

    Golden boy send his team an 8 figured contract and he has not responded. Is it because he want more money? Or is he scared to be exposed by King Canelo?

    Please let me know what what you guys think

    BTW, Steve Kim confirmed with Tom that the offered was made, but it's still not enough.

    Absolutely. GGG is one of boxing's biggest businessmen.

    The greatest trick the devil ever had was making people believe he didn't exist

      They all are.

      Fighters nowadays know the value of their fights and they all want to max their earning potential. Still, sometimes you have to accept less to secure the biggest fights.

        Omg why the **** are people so ******? Oscar has said MUTLIPLE times its not happening until fall.

        GGG has a unification with Jacobs in December which is a good multi million dollar payday and then Saunders claims he wants an undisputed title fight in early 2017 to unify all the titles

        So why the **** would GGG take an offer now when it will be so much bigger when he comes undisputed?

          Tom is holding out for a 9 figure check. He doesn't carry around golovkins luggage for no damn 8 figures

            But, wasn't GGG criticizing Canelo for being a "businessman"? If so, when it comes to GGG, is there a double standard?

              He was.

              It's all very much a PR battle at this stage.

              Ultimately, they should meet at a fair weight and have a reasonable split (70/30?), but they are basically using public negotiation tactics at the moment.

              It was silly to call Canelo a businessman when he's the same; all fighters are.
