I mean quantity. Plenty of Bums will take his $500K usual offer.

WHY ISN'T GGG GIVING JACOBS 5 MILLION DOLLARS!
kinda answered yourself didn't you? not sure how can you say both things at the same time. also saunders comes with uk money, jacobs doesn't so you can't compare the two obviously. same reason brook got 5 million and jacobs won't. they want to pay saunders more because he brings more. you suddently forgot how boxing worked?
I never posted he should get $5 mil why are you moving the goalpost?
If there was $3 mil available for Saunders there should be same available for Jacobs. Saunders doesn't bring more. Is he as well known as Brook?
Again, if K2 can offer Saunders $3 mil, they should be able to do same with Jacobs.
why should jacobs take less than somone not on his level?

Originally posted by The Big Dunn View PostGGG isn't paying anyone, K2 is. Jacobs, I remind you, is asking for the same $3 mil they offered Saunders, who is less of a name.
If there is $3 mil for Saunders its hard to argue there isn't at least $3 mil for Danny to fight GGG.
I don't see how you can post its Jacobs fault. K2 set the market value with the offer to BJS. The fact that GGG isn't bankable as you and others think doesn't mean Jacobs should ask for less than K2 was willing to give Saunders.
K2/GGG in effect want to pay the lesser name more money. A few posts ago you asked why should GGG take less than someone not on his level.
why should Jacobs?
Whether that sum is still available or whether team GGG think Jacobs is worth as much as BJS is of course another matter.

I feel it goes to purse bid and loeffler loses HBO will not let golovkin fight off they network so best to finalize before that happens and ggg loses a belt and we back to him saying I want to unify for another 4 years

Originally posted by Can'tHoldMeBack;17101543[B]if my favorite fighters are stopping fights from being made because of money I would call them out on that[/B],all I said is clearly team ggg is offering a lowball offer because they know they get lions share of split that's why Jacobs ask WBA to modify it to have good faith talks before purse bid has to happen, that's clearly loeffler leverage in situation and you came with your panties in a bunch for your bf and tried to compare Floyd and maidana purse splits forgetting after ppv sales was tallied and maidana had all of Argentina money he took home over 5mil

Originally posted by Jubei View PostLOL so Team Jacobs are really trying to change the rules and asked the WBA to change the splits for a mandatory fight? That is quite disgusting.
