Comments Thread For: Hunter Says Canelo is Doing Golovkin Dirty With Flat Fee Offer

No.

I just don't care enough either way.

You are welcome to make it and laugh as hard as you wish.

But, I expect I will get the last laugh on that one.

OK I'll spare you the embarrassment for now, but if I catch you pushing discredited talking points again, all bets are off

Well GGG is about to outsell Canelos last fight. That's something right? Canelo is no Oscar, has he even sold 500k as an A side?

ggg will be lucky to reach 200k, so keep dreaming, canelo sold more than 500k vs khan and cotto... and just wait for the chavez fight numbers ...

sometimes you have to ''settle'' for that lump sum or never get it again.

again, canelo will get his.

Even if he rejects flat fee for now, this fight will always be there to make. Also, keep in mind that Canelo is more likely to lose to a top opponent at 160 (or even to Charlo or Andrade at 154) and spoil a chance to make a megamoney event with GGG.

What embarrassment?

The poll isn't going to make any difference.

Paulie is getting in.

Period.

Exactly. Why should Golovkin take a flat fee when the potential is much more lucrative (ref: Mayweather vs Pac). Golden boy definitely stalling until Golovkin goes on social security.

U can't say GB is stalling when a viable offer is on the table. Let's not forget that GGG's team stated themselves that they thought GB would try to price themselves out the fight by offering ggg 1 or 2 million.

When the offer came back as 10 they hesitated and wanted it kept quiet so that the rumors of Canelo being scared wouldn't be dispelled. When Oscar spilled the beans ggg's camp was angry and stated "We thought these were gonna be private negotiations"

Why won't ggg just go take his belts for 10mil and then bully Canelo at the rematch table ?

Lots of figures bandied about for Khan. Cotto was the A side, that's why Canelo concedes 55% in upside. I'll give you Chavez but GGG would do more than half of Canelos number with him. That you have to resort to a future fight with Jr to show Canelo can carry 500k+, that tells the whole story

You suggested that nonsense.

You make it.

It won't mean a hill of beans either way it comes out.

There are already a grip of guys without a fraction of Paulie's popularity in Canastota already.

And, Paulie is now a colleague of a lot of the guys with votes, or did you forget he is behind the mike now?

They will vote him in.

You might have a point considering a rematch negotiation might be in Golovkin's favor. I think Golovkin's age is a double edged sword if you will. On the one hand Golovkin seeing this as his biggest payday wants the fight sooner than later and doesn't want to get stiffed by GB. Team Canelo wants to wait until Golovkin ages a bit to soften him up for their rising star. It's really a business decision on both of their parts. Hopefully they'll work it out and we'll see a great fight someday.

There may be no rematch if Canelo gets destroyed as many believe. Vargas never rematched Trinidad
