Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Promoter Aims To Secure Jacobs Before Purse Bid
As reported earlier today on BoxingScene.com, the World Boxing Association rejected Daniel Jacobs' application to modify the terms of the upcoming purse bid with Gennady Golovkin.
Those are WBA rules, Jacobs and his team knew what the split would be in case of a purse bid. It was in their best interests to hammer out a deal, but they instead tried to have the WBA change their rules specially for him-- total fail. Now Jacobs has to accept whatever K2 offers, accept the purse bid as per the rules or vacate his title and reputation. All up to Jacobs now.
75-25 is a pile a **** and totally disrespectful to jacobs. no way should he fight for peanuts. turn it down and move on.
Pathetic. You're just scared he will lose. I never thought I'd see a boxing fan asking for fighters NOT to give the fans a great fight. You're no boxing fan at all.
By the way, Jacobs admitted he couldn't even sell out HALF his hometown venue fighting against Haymon's other best middleweight, BOTH in their home towns! GGG sold out MSG in a foreign country and his ratings also show he is AT LEAST four times more marketable than Danny Jacobs.
So, you know, you don't know ****. Jacobs is lucky to get 25% and if he doesn't take it, it just proves he's scared of GGG like all the rest.

my favorite fighter is canelo, im pissed that canelo is being duck, now u want jacobs to b1tch out, todays fighters are acting like b1tches and jacobs ld fight like a man, then he can be top dog if he wins, hed be the one making 75%of the pie, if he dont, hed be dukkin in the eyes of his supporters
im a angry canelo fan for his diva acts, jacobs is not a diva yet, i hope he mans up and just fights for his 25 % and maybe if he wins, he can for ggg to 25%

Hopefully this gets done before purse bid. Not a fan of purse bids, too unpredictable and in cases like this usually lead to fights not happening. Loffler acknowledging Jacobs as the #2 MW is big tho. May signal his willingness to move close to that 60-40 mark.
