K2 wants the WBO belt, but they can't stop warren from holding it hostage forever so there's no sense in creating leverage for him by talking about how bad they want it. best to ignore it until a contract is signed.
Wll K2 and Golovkin have enough money for Saunders' WBO after Jacobs?

Saunders is talking retirement, I assume because he's finding it difficult to keep the weight off and get back into fighting shape.
Used to like the guy.. but he just went completely off the rails. At this point I really hope he just retires and forces a Canelo vs. Khurtisidze for WBO or something.Comment

K2 had the chance to make the fight last year and cheaped out. They can't pay anywhere near what canelo would pay them. Canelo will use Saunders as leverage against GGG if he keeps pricing himself out. Just like they did to chavez. Once chavez pops came out saying they want more money or no fight a week later WBO made canelo the mandatory for Saunders belt. Chavez worried he would lose the payday immediately agreed to the original offer by canelo fearing if they didn't canelo would fight for Saunders belt instead. Same will play out if both GGG and canelo win their upcoming fights Saunders left out in the cold. If GGG Canelo doesn't happen next Saunders will go to the highest bidder which will be canelo and GGG is left out. That's why canelo fought smith to gain options and leverage for the WBO title.Comment
