Its going to a purse bid, I said this over a week ago and in the Sherdog thread...

[Shadoww702]

"negotiations" is working with K2 to adjust the split

asking the WBA to do that is not "negotiations", its actually the opposite......

K2 doesn't negotiate. I thought everyone knew that??? They do use the media a lot to make the other fighter look bad and like a ducker though.

That has nothing to do with the WBA official purse-split.

Just because he never mentioned the WBA in that thread still doesn't take away from the fact that the purse split he said they agreed upon was 70-30. For all we know, they could've reached out to the WBA today. He posted in that sherdog thread weeks ago

Sorry! I don't know the WBA too much? All I know is they like to have TWO Champions in every weight class so it's hard to respect them. What is their requirement on splits??? Since both are like Champions to them???

We are going to see who ducks...

Absolutely no reason for either guy to bypass this fight

Purse bid should be interesting especially with PBC reducing spending, hbo n team GGG could win this bid

That purse bid is coming, I can smell it.

I'm not sure, I'd have to research it.

You're putting too much faith in some guy claiming to be an insider, who's giving out sensitive information on a message board. Idk, I guess at the latest we find out on Monday.

Doubt it! HBO isn't going to put this on HBO PPV. And someone already said something about PPV talks???

I don't know what HBO is thinking??? But BOXING seems to be the LAST thing on their list! I mean they turned down a GREAT fight and UNDERCARD with Manny/Vargas. That fight is more known than Jacobs/GGG.
