Comments Thread For: Golovkin-Jacobs: The WBA Wants Deal, Gives Purse Bid Extension

[daggum]

Huh?

It was an idea made by Mendoza. Somehow you translated that to "Jacobs wants..."?

Don't you get tired of this?

You probably troll your kids just for practice

you guys are my kids. i just misread the quote. i was hate-reading. anyway if you guys can make up sstuff why can't I. you guys said ggg didn't want it but the guy at the wba just said otherwise but you know better of course.

Actually, Mendoza proved that GGG doesn't want it. Anytime you're eager to bring a fight to purse-bid knowing the other party doesn't like the 75-25 split as oppose to negotiating, says you don't want the fight; not eager to make it happen.

From Fat Dan (http://www.espn.com/blog/dan-rafael/...ks-get-messy):

"But the sides apparently aren't getting anywhere in the negotiations. Gilberto Mendoza Jr., president of the WBA, told ESPN.com that there has been discussion by the Jacobs side of a possible interim bout before facing Golovkin (36-0, 33 KOs), although Golovkin does not want an interim fight. He wants to do the mandatory fight with Jacobs (32-1, 29 KOs) as soon as possible, especially because it is such an attractive fight."

...

"Typically, a mandatory fight between a "super champion" (Golovkin in this case) and a "regular champion" (Jacobs) is a 75-25 split in the event of a purse bid with the lion's share going to the "super champion."

However, Mendoza said that Jacobs is seeking a 60-40 split (in GGG's favor).

"It has changed in some cases but usually they are not changed," Mendoza said."

Just give him 1 mil flat rate deal - its the best deal he can ever get, right Punknello fans ???

1 Mill < 10 Mill, source: Basic Level Math. cheers.

Really?

How much did Jacobs and Bumlovkin make in their last bouts? If the difference isn't a 75/25 ratio then Bumlokvin doesn't deserve 75%. Period, end of...

He made 4m+. Jacobs made 500k vs Mora. Sounds like 25% is too generous,right moron?

[aboutfkntime]

jacobs doesn't want a deal he wants to duck.

ha wants more money, you ******

you say the dumbest ****

you are a Pacquiao fan, aren't you ?

[aboutfkntime]

So it looks like Jacobs team wants a better deal while GGGs team is playing hard ball because they know they can.... 60/40 split is a bit high, 65/35 is fair.

the bold is obviously true

and the rest is probably true as well

[aboutfkntime]

essentially what ggg haters/haymon fanboys are saying is that ggg has to overpay jacobs because ggg wants the fight more and jacobs doens't mind fighting bums. this is supposed to make jacobs look good somehow but yeah it does not.

watch what happens when I change the names in your **** post

essentially what Canelo haters are saying is that Canelo has to overpay GGG because Canelo wants the fight more and GGG doens't mind fighting bums. this is supposed to make GGG look good somehow but yeah it does not.

you finally got one right LMAO
