I'd like everyone who thinks $15m isn't enough to break down the numbers and explain the reason why.

What kind of revenue do you expect this fight to generate?

GGG has 1 pay per view on his resume now he has Jacob's on his resume. If he sells more than the Canelo vs Smith he will have more of a bargaining chip.
The difficult part for GGG is Canelo has done the majority of his fights on pay per view compared to GGG doing his fights on regular HBO.
Give GGG 20 to 35 percent and call it a day.
why do folks always ignore that simple reality?

There's no "bluff" to bother with; take the money, fulfill whatever obligations that come with the money, and hope to God that he 1)gets passed Jacobs and 2)the boil down to 160lbs doesn't finally harm his 35-year old body.

If GGG wants the fight bad enough 15 mil is not bad. He really doesnt have much options at 160 and this will earn him probably his biggest payday. Not saying I agree with him being given a flat fee but if they want the fight bad enough and if it is as easy victory as he seems to think just do it.
