Comments Thread For: Golovkin, Jacobs Running Out of Time - Purse Bid Looms

GGG can't even afford to pay Jacobs $2 million without losing $$$$ LOL!!! Canelo should just move along because he is not WORTH giving $10million to.

Are you GGG's accountant??? You sure do bi@tch alot on how much he makes and spends? So we're not gonna see this fight! Cool I hope your happy. And we're not gonna see GGG vs. Canelo either. If GGG is too poor to make competitive fights then he can stay at the kiddie table fighting the usual bums he gladly pays then $500K.

no ggg isn't too poor, jacobs is asking for too much. not sure why you can't see that. if liam smith asked for 3 to 5 mill to fight canelo do you think the fight would be made....yet when jacobs asks for that much he really wants to fight wtf is that? yeah jacobs go fight mora for another 500k that will show em!

[Shadoww702]

they wnat to see it but they understand simple math. jacobs asking for 3-5 million means the fight can't be made because jacobs isn't popular and brings nothing. if he was as popular as kell brook for example then yes that would be possible but since hes not, its not possible. blame jacobs for not knowing his own popularity.

canelo just made 3 million to fight smith. jacobs wants 3 to 5 million to fight ggg. this isn't pricing yourself out how?

check the ratings. canelo's popularity is falling. ggg's is rising. sorry!

He fought a guy NO ONE has EVER heard of and still had $50Kvfans show up. GGG had to go overseas to get his.

GGG not making GOOD competitive fights isn't gonna help his career out at all. Your insane if you think GGG will ever be more popular than Canelo. Especially if they stay CHEAP as *** and never paying good fighters what they already make fighting GGG type opponents I mean BUMS.

I BET you right NOW Jacobs would take a 75/25 split with Canelo!

What did Jacobs ask for???

You're beating your head against the wall. Don't you know that the burden of sacrifice is ALWAYS on GGG no matter what? He MUST accept a flat fee vs Flopnelo or its a duck. He MUST find a way to pay Jacobs north of $3 million or its a duck. He MUST tie up his schedule for a year and meet Ward at Ward's requested weight or its a duck.

No other fighters are expected to make concessions to get a fight made, only GGG.

Once you understand that premise, you can converse better with most on this board......

jacobs said he wanted 3 to 5 million. where do you get 2 from? if jacobs wants 3 to 5 mill to fight canelo guess what happens? the fight doesnt get made. i guess canelo is ducking him because canelo doesnt want to lose money. what an idiot trying not to lose money. we all know the point of boxing is to lose money-Al Haymon

no surprise daggum in here playing captain save a GG

[The Big Dunn]

uh yes it is since he's more popular than those guys. if he was floyd he would have offered them a sh-t flat offer and when they turned him down fought a bum and scooped up all the money. he's done that a couple times but for the most part he's actually trying to fight these guys and being extremely generous.

and i thought it was obvious that i don't expect the a-side to lose money or take less money just to get a fight made. that's not reasonable is it and doesn't even need to be said. but when you are the a-side and are willing to split the money with a guy who's clearly not on your level and the fight still can't be made...its time to blame the b-side. worth is determined by what you can negotiate...and so jacobs will be worth nothing since the figth can't be made with his demands. fight mora again for another 500k. no problem making that fight.

Dude you keep talking about popularity when you should be talking about
'sellability" for lack of a btter word.

You really can't compare Floyd and GGG. Floyd sells out Vegas where his cheapest seats are more than GGG's ringside seats. Floyd can lose on a fight because when he has a big fight it far exceeds projections. GGG hasn't showed this yet.

Jacobs may not be on GGG's level, but he is levels above the people GGG usually fights.

I just hope they both do what is necessary to make the fight.

What did Jacobs ask for???

really? once again where does this money come from? where does your math come from? canelo just made 3.5 mill against khan and 3 mill against liam smith. is a jacobs fight that much bigger than those? prob not. so what's 25 percent of that? around a million or so. so you are saying jacobs would fight canelo for a million...and yet he won't fight ggg unless its for 3 to 5 million. oh wait that proves my point completely! good job buddy lmao. if ggg offered jacobs a million he wouldn't fight! yet you continue to blame ggg for jacob's insanity. why? why are you doing this?
