GGG needs to do what Kovalev did. Take less money to make fights. Kovalev could have *****ed about taking less money to fight Pascal and Hopkins, he didn't , he took less money and beat both of them. GGG isn't willing to do that for anyone so he gets stuck paying bums under 500,000 to fight him. K2 isn't going to pay Jacobs enough money that's why they want to go to purse bid so GGG will get 75%. If they're not offering Jacobs at least 1.5 mil, he should pass on the fight and chase a fight with Saunders or Canelo. K2 would have never paid Brooks 5 mil to fight GGG, only reason that fight got made was because Hearn was cutting the checks

Question is how much would you bid knowing no one else is going to give a serious bid?? Its probably going to be between $3-5 million.

Just make the ****ing fight or **** off. Seriously, if it doesn't happen the side responsible can piss off.

Just take the freakin' fight and bust GGG in the mouth. Jacobs wants to get paid like he already beat him.

I hope they can come to some sort of resolution. I hesitate to try to be a prophet about the outcome before anything is confirmed.
If this doesn't work out, I was thinking Saunders who has recently said he would step up to the plate but he's got a fight scheduled.
It's bad for both guys, but I feel like Jacobs may have even fewer options than GGG if this goes south.
SURE HOPE THIS GETS MADE.

He'll vacade and move on. If team GGG woulda gave they would look desperate. And GB would have a field day when negotiations for the Alvarez fight came up.
