Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Contract To Face Canelo is Fair, Golovkin Has To Sign!

[Shadoww702]

Canelo has 2.5 mill, ppvs not counting his fight with floyd, ggg has 97k... how come golovkids talk about ppvs at all??
The gap in ppvs is going to be even bigger after the chavez fight...

CanChavez is going to have around 1million buys. Jacobs/GGG will probably be around 220-250.

Ggg: send me the contrct and i will sign...
Oscar : your promoter has the contract...

Ggg has no clue what his promoter been doing...
Months ago ggg said gbp will lowball with a 2 mill offer, when there was already an 8 figure offer on the table, ggg had no clue...

Yep, I posted that article. I don't understand how $15 mil is considered a lowball when just months earlier $2 mil was considered a lowball. It's not like he increased his profile that much in a couple of months

Khan was a JOKE! Can't defend that. But just 4 months ago in December Chavez was GGG's DREAMFIGHT! And you guys were ALL down for that. But now he's a BUM por smoker?? And if you didn't figure out why they chose Smith then you got a screw missing.

Canelo named mandatory challenger for Saunders.

Sanchez, not GGG dream fight. And nobody was into it since Chavez is low on credibility lately.

Great, so Canelo can be Gggs Mando when he takes that belt off Saunders. What's the Wbo split, like 30% for challenger?

1. agreed on khan being a joke. 2. I was never down for ggg vs Chavez Jr. And ggg never said Chavez Jr is his dream fight. That was Abel Sanchez. Chavez Jr vs ggg would be an even bigger joke than Canelo vs Chavez Jr because ggg would probably make him quit again. He'll likely go 12 vs Canelo. 3. Yeah yeah, I know, he supposedly picked Smith because of the wbo status and he'd get Saunders belt. I think that's a lame excuse because if belts mattered so much then Canelo wouldn't have given up the more prestigious wbc green Mexican based belt but now all of a sudden covet the Puerto Rican based less regarded wbo belt. He or golden picked him more so because he was a much easier opponent than the other 154 belt holders.

I don't know the split but it will be a better PPV sale if ALL the belts are on the line. That fight would prove who is #1.

It still would of probably doubled what Jacobs/GGG is going to get. And you think GGG wouldn't ask for a CW like Canelo did??? Don't be silly. Sanchez has said MULTIPLE times Chavez has to be a CW. And just think Chavez at the time was way more popular than GGG and for TWO fights with GGG he could of made $17,000,000 not 15 million for 1 fight like GGG will get.

EXACTLY!!! GGG said himself that GB was going to offer like $2,000,000 INSTEAD Oscar offered 7.5x that amount. 3x more than GGG has EVER made. He just cracked $5,000,000 for the 1st time EVER against Brook.

Khan and Brook were BOTH Jokes I might add. In fact Brook would of been WAY better off if he got to fight at 155 instead of the FULL 160.

Chavez Jr. can box. He just needs motivation. If this fight doesn't motivate him he's DONE!!!! He's HUGE compared to CanYellow. I don't think Canelo can hurt him at all. And if Canelo can't hurt him he's in for a tough fight. I haven't seen a size difference this big in a VERY long time. If Chavez looks healthy on the scales I'm putting some good $$$$ on him to win. At 8-1 or 10-1 odds??? You got to be INSANE not to. I'm probably going to put 2-5 bills on Chavez not too much but enough to make 2-5K if Chavez wins.

Doesn't matter if they made a verbal offer of paper contract now or last year. They will make an offer that is in Canelo's favor. Its up to BBB side if he wants to except it.
Canelo wants the fight but doesn't need it. He's still the top draw in the sport with or without BBB side.

Let's get it on. Make it happen!
