Comments Thread For: Golovkin's Coach: Money Issues Remain, Not Sure Jacobs is Next

[Vnecaxa]

Boy is that the truth. They're in the business so they have to "appear" to want the fight. Add Jacobs to the list with Saunders, Alvarez, Eubanks and the rest of them. Can't blame them really. They want a big payday if they're going to risk their health and future livelihood.

If they are afraid to fight maybe they should change profession! There are a lot of fighters out there risking their lifes for $500 per fight.

"Until one of them drop out" what other reason would golovkin dropout other then losing bid and not being allowed to fight on a pbc/sho platform?

Nice try lol. That's not even a Sanchez quote

[HeroBando]

I really don't understand how this fight became difficult to make, the super champ gets x%, the regular champ gets x%, so why is fighter x requesting for a better split when they know that the rules doesn't favour them?

It's not hard, the Challenger doesn't want the fight, wants retirement wages to exercise his mando

Lying Loeffler. Asked for an extension to finalize the fight and they weren't even close to finalizing the fight. Loeffler is wasting everybody time. They could've went to pursue bid two weeks ago and either got the fight done or somebody pulled out. Lying Loeffler just like I said two weeks ago. They were never close on the numbers

It was worth a try, right? Exhaust all the options before Jacobs vacates. I'm sure Loeffler would rather have kept the December date

Just get on with it and strip that Jacobs of the belt and get someone else in there. Then let's see how Jacobs does, running around unable to call himself a world champ (even if it is a fake, bull**** belt).

... simple: purse bid...

... if Showtime wins it, go and fight there...

It will be interesting to see what K2 does if Dibella Entertainment wins the purse bid. Will GGG vacate? Will K2 do the same as Main Events, when the purse bid was ordered for Kovalev vs. Stevenson?

They haven't been close on the numbers since before they were forced to negotiate. If he used the time to find some extra money somewhere then yes it was worth a try. But I doubt that. Should've been sent to purse bid. If Danny isn't happy and he vacates well that's the end of his career. He may as well retire. **** him.

I think K2 does not want to go to a purse bid with Dibella Entertainment. I think they know they'll lose the bid, and then GGG will pull out like Kovalev did with Stevenson "due to a contract with HBO." In that scenario, GGG vacates and Jacobs becomes the sole owner of the WBA title, or GGG is fighting on PBC/Showtime. We'll see!
