I would like to see them fight each other's opponents for the next six years to build the fight up. No need to rush it. They'll be a lot sharper at 40 and 35.Comment

In my opinion - and this is just pure opinion - I think GGG's team probably offered a 60 - 40 split or a 65 - 35 split. I think Jacobs wanted 50 - 50 because he doesn't have any faith in his ability to actually beat GGG.
Now that counteroffer wasn't accepted, I think GGG's team are calling his bluff and going to purse bid which is 75 - 25, meaning Jacobs either loses faces as a duck/coward, or he takes a smaller financial settlement. Hence why he asked the WBA to make an exception and put it to 60 - 40, which they rejected.
I think GGG's team will end up giving him more than 25% to make sure the fight goes ahead - maybe around 67.5 - 32.5?Comment

doubt it. K2 want more as does Jacobs but if it was 60/40 or even 65/35 it would already be signed.
I do think Jacobs has faith he can beat GGG but money talks...for both sidesComment
