Comments Thread For: Golovkin-Jacobs: Loeffler Tells The WBA a Purse Bid is Needed

[MDPopescu]

Showtime should put "the right money" on the table (that kind of money Jacobs is talking about) and the we'll see what it happens...

[kafkod]

will 97k PPV's generate more than " Quillin money "..... or not ?

Clearly not. So why are you saying that K2 should offer Jacobs more than "Quillin money"?

Dude on Sherdog still playing along:

Still wouldn't worry about the fight but I will tell you if it becomes in jeopardy. There is a concern about what the holdup is on signatures as it's been a while hence the motion to raise the purse considering Danny has negotiated in good faith. Thought this would have done over a week ago.

As I mentioned before, there's an issue on his management's end but we don't know the extent of it. I'll also say I don't blame Gennady for this.

There is no current backup opponent for the 10th. A list of approved hasn't even been asked for. He's training for GGG only.

the bold is the problem

Jacobs negotiated in good faith, Team Bull**** applied for an early purse bid

Kell Brook is a huge attraction in the UK. Unknown welterweight? HAHAHA! Brook generated that attraction in the UK. Golovkin piggy backed off Brook there.

Why was he offered a career high 1m pounds for a welter unification, and 3x that for Ggg?

Mate, Loeffler just asked the WBA to call a purse bid. Clearly, they are ready and willing to fight. GGG has no responsibility to make Danny Jacobs rich, just to defend his belt against his mandatory challenger, which is what he is trying to do.

if they were willing to fight, it would be signed LMAO

they are obviously attempting to manipulate the negotiation by leveraging off the purse-bid split..... just like they did with Canelo

they will get the same result, and they know it

and so do you

Loeffler must have accepted the possibility that Haymon might win the purse bid, otherwise he wouldn't have asked for it. I presume that HBO have given the go-ahead for GGG to fight on ST, if necessary.

[Can'tHoldMeBack]

I don't know if that's true or not. I do know they didn't make it IMMEDIATELY ... as in before vacating the belt instead of agreeing to defend it last Sept, which is what was mandated by the WBC.

OK spin doctor when loeffler and Oscar both said offer was made 30 days before both did last fights but you gotta fit everything in your own narrative

well they sure had no problem splitting the pot more fairly in order to make Kell Brook rich

why is that do you thik ?

you just admitted that they could do more to make that fight than request an early purse-bid

AND YOU KNOW IT !!

your guy is easily making he fights he wants, it is the more risky, less necessary fights, that he mysteriously can't get made..... AND YOU KNOW IT !

It takes 2 signatures to seal a deal.

[aboutfkntime]

Loeffler knows Jacobs is worth more than 25% and they are purposely low balling him to avoid the fight. They are doing what they accused Canelo of doing when they said he would offer 2 million only to be exposed when GBP gave them 10 million.
