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...

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.

... I think I'll laugh a lot when Showtime will put on the table what they consider to be the "right money" for Jacobs...

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 !

Because they were also making GGG rich by doing it! Jeez, are you really this fucking ******?

[Progrssive_Jedi]

We knew Jacobs would price himself out, he said so

K2 is know around boxing as very easy to deal with. They are not going to pay ppv money to Jacobs because Jacobs isn't worth it.

By going to purse bid thy are saying let the market deal with it.

If Haymon wants to bid too much and lose it to GGG, then so be it.

GGG / k2 obviously got permission from HBO to do this, which tells me they are ready to either bid enough or let GGG fight on showtime.

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.

I ignored him long ago, he makes no sense all the time.

I don't think anyone is suprised. We knew Golovkin would duck Jacobs. Way too much of a risk. 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. Grovelkin is a power punching scardy cat. The toughest camp to make fights with. If you aren't an easy fight they will not get a deal done. We have seen it over and over again repeatedly.

Ducking, just stop it.

It's Jacobs who said he wants more the is economical. He wants so much that either GGG has to take a huge pay cut or k2 would have to lose money.

K2 is supposed to make GGG money, not lose it.

Jacobs clearly is asking for too much. He doesn't have a huge fan base, and thinks just being a GGG opponent entitles him to ppv money.

[aboutfkntime]

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

are you fkn serious ?

kick rocks dude

they could EASILY have offered Jacobs more than " Quillin money "

they could EASILY have avoided a forced purse-bid

you tards are dumb as fk for lapping that shht up

they have been lying to you clowns for YEARS LMAO

I seriously doubt HBO would give green light on that, Jacobs can crack and if ggg was to lose on showtime without getting anything out of they investment and losing 3 belts to showtime killing Canelo fight even more would prob cause network to ban boxing for all of 2017 on network

foolio.....

you just admitted they could do more to make the Jacobs fight LMAO

[pacmanis1]

Can someone please just tell me what this fight is worth? I know we got a lot of amateur promoters on here.

Say it's 50/50 and each gets 3 mil is either side willing to put up 6mil? PBC only put up 5 for Wilder/Povetkin.

Wilder got 1.25 mil viewers against Stiverne.

Jacobs got 400k against Quillin.

Not sure what GGG got against Brook but I wanna say it was around 700-800k.

[aboutfkntime]

It takes 2 signatures to seal a deal.

1 guy negotiated in good faith..... 1 guy forced an early purse-bid

which guy made the biggest effort ?

it took 2 days to make the Brook fight, and Brook got rich LMAOOOOOO

[kafkod]

... I think I'll laugh a lot when Showtime will put on the table what they consider to be the "right money" for Jacobs...

Yeah, plus 3 times as much on top of that for GGG!
