Comments Thread For: Golovkin: I Respect Chavez Jr. More, Canelo Gave Me His Belt!

[OnePunch]

Dear god boxing fans what the fk?!? Seriously the sheer amount of people here hampering on about money is hilarious. Who the fck cares what a fighter makes, seriously. At WHAT POINT DID WE TURN THE SPORT INTO A FKING GOLDMAN SACHS PROFITABILITY MEETING?!? Fans talking about who is worth what...demand the fcking fight and save the business talk to for your own fking portfolios. Tired of coward @zz fans hiding behind ppv numbers and purses just so their favorite fighter doesn't get his shhh pushed in. Mofo dropped a belt as a LINEAL CHAMPION that's the only thing that matters here. Demand the fight or stfu. He had the deck in his favor and said NO. END OF STORY!

amen. Rumack nailed that sentiment also which is why I use it in my sig.....

EVERYBODY knows that fight would never have been made from a purse bid, yet ******s like you go on page after page after page about what the splits would have been, and blah blah blah. The purse bid splits are irrelevant, because the fight would never get made that way.

And yes, vacating and stripping can indeed be pretty much the same thing. Kinda like quitting 10 minutes before you are about to get fired.

what splits are you talking about? Again, GBP going to a purse bid with K2?

stop playing Shakespeare's fool

are you ACTUALLY ******ed, or are you just pretending to be? More than half the posts in this friggin thread are about what the splits would have been if it had went to purse bid. People debating about WBC rules, mandatory challengers vs interim champs, and what Steve Kim wrote a year ago. Funny how 95% of the time people will claim Kim is a hack who knows nothing, but the 5% of the time they find some nugget that supports their position, now all of the sudden Kim is a wise old sage dropping knowledge.

so let me get the straight: You are using the fact that a purse bid exists as a last resort, as justification for not making an offer in the first place???

"We wont make an offer because if you dont accept it then the ensuing purse bid split is unacceptable"

LMAO you clowns are too much lol

They haven't accepted the current offer. So what makes you think they would have accepted the same offer last summer? Also, what precluded K2 from initiating the discussion and saying...hey we will accept 30% and upside?

[Mequetrefe]

you shouldnt bring that up and then turn around and ask others not to do it, start demanding for better fights and stop acting like gigis accountat...

I do what I want.

Canelo dropped the title because of Golovkin getting 45%.

Still a bi tch move after all the sh it talking cantnelo did. Of course you won't admit it. That being said if this fight does good numbers and I don't see why it wouldn't, and ggg fight doing bad numbers which it just might, then ggg and his team will have to give in to dirty ginger and accept what would most likely be a 5-6 mill offer. They took a gamble and lost

And never fought him again, despite Andre saying he would like to fight him in the pros...he's afraid of all the Andre's.

Nope he fought him twice and won the rematch in the olympics.

I already told you, I ain't talking about splits. I'm just reminding again that since 2016 at NSB we had already established that GBP wouldn't go to a purse bid with K2, which is the fundamental point to your replies. just like you said, it wasn't going to purse bid.

GBP needs no introduction as to who calls the shots, especially when it relates to money. #Floyd vs Oscar

I do what I want.

and then complain when others do the same....

Cool. Gotchu. Just as folks should get out of the financial management business they should get out of the fear measuring business. Just as much as folks bring up the business view folks bring up fear. Stop acting like you know what's in another man's mind. These dudes don't fight to impress you or me...or to convince you or me that they aren't scared of some other guy. The fight for belts and money...and not always at the same time.

Demand the fight AND stfu about everything else...including calling another man scared.
