Comments Thread For: Bradley Backs Canelo's Position: Has GGG Done Enough? No Way!

[QballLobo]

what has he done since 2009 and what real risks has he taken for the 4 plus yrs in between the Garcia fight and Canelo fight? If his following is so big in the UK, has he ever sold out an arena there? Ggg did with brook. Has khan?

Yes Khan has sold out some UK arenas and more importantly has drawn big crowds to his own cards in the US. Why do BBB side fans place so much importance on the UK? They support their hometown guys but the us is where the big money is.

ggg is a bigger draw in the US than khan and him vs Canelo will do bigger numbers than Canelo vs khan for sure. Hence, he deserves a total bigger purse than khan. End of story.

It's not that simple.Khan brought the uk PPV money that Canelo got a split of. GGG doesn't bring that leverage hence no split. Also did you watch GGG/Brook? That sell out crowd was there to see Kell, GGG didn't sell out anything. BBB side can either take the offer given or not get the fight. Canelo has no obligation to fight him and doesn't need to fight him. The flat fee offer is more than Khan made even with the upside.

sorry guy but just because the crowd was cheering brook doesn't mean he's the one who sold it out. Brook doesn't fill that arena up solo. Mayweather gets boo'd more than his opponent every fight single fight at Vegas so are we supposed to believe that his opponents are the ones who sold the fight out because they're the ones being cheered?Ggg has also sold out arenas in NY and cali so it's not like he's a nobody who doesn't bring anything to the table.
I also disagree that Canelo doesn't need ggg. He's taking crazy heat for ducking the fight and his ppv numbers and support continue to drop. There's nobody available to him that will get him a good ppv # aside from ggg.

The UK money is a rounding error dude. It's boxnation at 4am. The lengths you'll go to to excuse the duck, claiming Khan is more deserving of ppv upside lol

most insiders/fighters/trainers support Canelo's position

only the g-string's think that the superstar Canelo should toss Golovkin a bone by giving him concessions..... most insiders, fighters, trainers, think that Golovkin should earn that fight, and are asking what has Golovkin done?

when they ask, who did he beat, what do you tell them ?

is the first name that springs to mind Martin Murray, or David Lemieux?

I wonder if Bradley's cleaning lady knows who Amir Khan is?
