Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: We Offered Golovkin Eight Figures, They Didn't Respond

[basic_bounty]

Golden Boy says Canelo is ready to SIGN NOW but...oh wait... it's for SEPTEMBER 2017. Please Oscar don't try to pull a Ward. Quit the bullchit and fight now. Oscar said it's for 8 figures....what is that a flat fee? Does that include moving GGG down to 154 to fight Canelo. Canelo doesn't have the title anymore and that's what GGG was after, so GGG doesn't need Canelo. We all know GGG was after that middleweight title. So Canelo and his team can play these ****** games the hardcore boxing fans knows whats going on. GGG can build his own name and popularity when he keeps knocking guys out.

The greed of Canelo and De La Hoya is nauseating.

No, it is not: Oscar earns his living this way. This is free market capitalism.

Oscar is basically admitting it a 2 millions offer.
"That's still an eight figure doe"

That's low balling, pure and simple.

Huh? I guess of you have it as 02,000,000 hen you're right.

...it should be at least a 60/40 split with Triple G getting the 60%..he's got all the other belts!

You are plain ******. Does GGG draw 51,000 fans? His only PPV and HBO refuses to ever give him another PPV unless canelo fights him. Depending on who you want to believe GGG PPV numbers 97k or 150k. Canelo either did HALF or a third that number in attendance alone. LMAO

You get paid based on what you bring to the table. Canelo brings the fans to the table. Smith was the champ hlast night and had the belt and he didn't get no 60%. GGG looks like a fraud and liar but if you follow his career and see the level of opponents he has faced you already know that.

30 days ago you offered a 8 figure payday ? 1 day ago I read a quote from Oscar saying Canelo is at 154 and GGG is at 160 . Not sure I believe him.

Lol, that's cute. I wonder if Liam got 60% for having the belt.

[PETUFF]

then GGG is a liar ! they offer him 8 millions and he didn't take the fight?then he ******

[bigdunny1]

I can't stand De La Chocha as much as the next guy but this is all very easy to confirm. All someone has to do is call K2. I can't see even Oscar going public if the offer wasn't true.

More then that just look at the history of the 2 fighters. Who has canelo not fought what fighters and promoters have come out saying canelo is difficult to negotiate and make fights with? Canelo has literally fought everyone the fans have asked him to fight. Meanwhile GGG is 35 and still not made a single fight fans wanted. One excuse after another. The laundry list of fighters and other promoters calling them liars and complain how difficult they are to make fights. There is at least a dozen bold face lies and contradictions they have been caught in. 154 or 168 yet killed 2 huge fights with ward and canelo because they refused to go to to 168 or below 160. And there are many other examples.

Just off track record I'm siding with Canelo. GGG been caught in too many lies and had too many fighters exposing them.
