Lil G better hurry up and accept the 15 million before the Chavez Jr. and Jacobs #s

[Robbie Barrett]

Some of you are so weird with your obsessions with purse splits. As long as the fight happens, who cares?

Golovkin vs Jacobs will do good numbers. It will do more buys than Kovalev-ward and double their gate number.

Of course golovkin doesn't have the popularity of Canelo. Nobody denies that.

You think Golovkin-Jacobs does $6.6 mil at the gate?

[daggum]

So why didn't he offer GGG $15million when he still had the belt?

I know rational thought isn't popular round here, but come on ... this is kindergarten level stuff.

canelo wouldn't even fight ggg for 75 percent of the purse. could have went to purse bid and gotten that but he dropped the belt so he could lowball him/not fight him

[fsutton]

how much did khan recieve?

[HeroBando]

Sure didn't...just like he didn't net 10 million against Cotto.

All those guys you mention got significant upside. Lemieux and Jacobs got upside from GGG, Khan and Chavez got upside from Canelo. Why is he happy to concede upside to these no credibility chumps but not to 3 belt champ GGG?

[Rock&Roll]

What I think is funny is that they've been running around for months yapping about $10M. Now, they make a comment about $15M and some guys run with it like its gospel. Oscar could say tomorrow that he offered GGG $50M, and guys would take it hook line and sinker, saying, Lil g better take that $50M while he can

Well said. It's annoying when this forums just turns to ****.
It took me 3 minutes to find:

2.17 Division of Proceeds in a Purse Offer. The net purse offer (after deduction of all sanction
fees payable to the WBC hereunder) shall be divided as follows:
(a) 70% for the champion and 30% for the challenger in title bouts; and
(b) 50% to each contender in the case of vacant titles or elimination bouts.

No idea where he pulled 40% from? Probably the same place where he pulled 15 mill from?

Conela vacated as he couldn't fork out 30% for his IBF, WBA champ challenger?
Now he has no titles against the UNDISPUTED CHAMP and won't give him a 40% split, only a FLAT FEE !!?!?!!
Stop ducking GGG you p*ssy

[Kazakh Boxing]

Not true, he had time to negotiate before that. They had a long time to negotiate before a purse bid. Canelo knew damn well that he wasnt going to fight GGG at that time or any time soon. The whole excuse about him not wanting to give up 40% is all just smoke and mirrors.

Agreed.

nice 2nd gif tho
