    first off I dont believe for a minute that they are demanding 40%. Everybody knows thats a non-starter

    And secondly, maybe you are unfamiliar with how promotional contracts work, but typically its not up to the fighter

      I doubt that's a real offer. Oscar didn't mention it at all on ESPN.

        They stay lying hard to avoid Gennady lmao. SHOW THE CONTRACT. Make it public, make the NEGOTIATION public if you are so open and honest about it. Let's see the details and Gennady will sign it in public. Let's go.

          Answer me this:

          Is it a 15m offer with no stipulations?

          1: Yes
          2: No
          3: I dont know.

            40%? according to what numbers are they basing this money they're asking for? Surely GGG's 97k PPV buys vs Lemiuex?

            And how is that Canelo has been shown to be easy to negotiate with, having big names like Mayweather and Cotto, and other lesser but risky fights like Lara and Trout, and now moving up 10lbs possibly for a Chavez Jr fight. I mean it seems that if you are being reasonable, Canelo/GBP will fight you. 8 figure pay day sounds unreasonable for GGG because it's too much. Even more unreasonable that they would reject that.

            And it's crazy because what if the fight does 600k? That's what I think it would top out at or even less, that's $39mill in PPV rev, half for the network, $19,500,000 to split between Canelo and GGG. If GGG gets K2's desired 40% that's $7.8 million, a lot less than the supposed $15million flat fee

              4. The ACTUAL details dont matter as long as we can accuse GGG of ducking

                $15M is like a 50/50 split for 1 million buys.

                  Idk if I buy that. Or Oscar is more off the wagon then I think he is. Canelo hasn't broke 1M as the A side yet (iirc Cotto just got him to 900k or something like that). Paying the B side $15M seems high as f#ck vs what Canelo is probably expecting to be guaranteed vs what the PPV number will look like.

                      He said several times that they have made Golovkin an 'incredible offer' that is more than fair.
