i never said i think either is fair..never..but if he or his fans want him to get a fight worth a damn why not??..not saying dont negotiate cause i damn sure hope these fights get done...**** pointing fingers make the fights for the fansWell let me ask you.
Do you think Jacobs at $3 mil is too much based on what the fight generates?
Do you think $10 million is too little based on what the fight generates?
Both your answers are probably yes. We all want to see good fights, but it doesn't take a genius to realise those fights only happen if both sides compromise.Comment

When there was 1 title in the division the best had no choice but to fight the best. Now there are 4 and a guys can get a title without ever fighting anyone. Look at Sugar Ray Robinson, before he won the welterweight title he was a veteran and had veterans/former champs on his resume way before he got his shot. Fighters used to not be able to make **** until they go the title. Now fighters get paid nearly a quarter of a million (Spence) before they get a title shot. Reduce the belts down to two and keep the big money only for the title holders and you will see real fights get made.I want GGG to fight the best.
I don't get caught up in the money, or why fights don't get made really.
What I don't do is blame the fighter because it's usually out of their control.
I also respect a fighters decision, i.e. Golovkin already said numerous times he wants to unify the division. So let him. I'm fine with it. I find it commendable. You might have a problem with that decision, but that's your problem.
What do I really want? I want prizefighting to change as a model so that fighters still get paid (prize) but all fighters are forced to face the best in their division on a constant basis like league sports. That's what I really want. Even the most elite fighting 8 times a year.Comment
