Comments Thread For: Loeffler Hopes Golovkin-Jacobs Entices Canelo to Fight Golovkin

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

NEW YORK Gennady Golovkin and his handlers hope Canelo Alvarez and Oscar De La Hoya liked what they saw Saturday night. And by like, they mean Alvarez and his promoter saw enough vulnerability in Golovkin to entice the Mexican superstar to agree to fight Golovkin in September. Golovkin and Alvarez still would need to win a fight apiece before their highly anticipated showdown would become a reality, but Golovkin's promoter thinks Golovkin going the distance for the first time in nearly nine years might make Alvarez more comfortable agreeing to face Golovkin.

IF CATCHNELO BEATS CHAVEZ BUM JR EASILY AND THE GGG VS JACOBS PPV FLOPS THEN CANELO HAS ALL THE LEVERAGE.... GGG WILL HAVE TO TAKE A FLAT FEE THEN OR SHUT THE FRUCK UP FOR FOREVER!

I have a feeling were not seeing GGG-Canelo until next year.

Golovkin will want a summer fight in Kazakhstan and GB Promotions will say there isn't enough time to promote Canelo-GGG so Canelo will fight someone else in September.

not surprised to hear Loeffler continue spraying tard-fertilizer for the casuals

Canelo has made his offer, and that offer will not change

have you signed yet ?

I agree

but not for the reasons you said

the Canelo fight has been notoriously difficult to make

Golovkin COULD have fought Canelo at 155, but he CHOSE not to

then.....

Golovkin COULD have fought Canelo at 160, for a very good purse..... but he CHOSE not to

as I contemplate why/how that situation could possibly happen, one fact keeps springing to mind..... Mr "anyone from 154-168" also totally refused to negotiate on weight with lil old faded 153lb Cotto..... who was - and likely still is - his best possible payday

Mr "anyone from 154-168" refusing to negotiate with lil old Cotto is the most bizarre decision that I have ever seen from a supposed top fighter..... the goal of every fighter within the sport is to land his best possible payday

matchmakers rule this game..... always have, always will

been saying it forever, because it is so obvious..... Golovkin is only fighting lower-level opponents who's style indicates that they will be "available"..... because FACT: if Golovkin can land cleanly, then he will win..... they only fought Jacobs because the WBA demanded a mandatory, and they tried to kill that fight by forcing an early purse-bid

I think the Canelo fight will be much more difficult to make, they will strictly view Canelo as their cash-out..... because I am 100% positive that Golovkin's matchmakers agree with me..... that the recent "Jacobs is a bigger threat than Canelo" line, is rubbish..... NOBODY said that until a couple of days before the fight

Golovkin has been extremely well-managed

they will need a GREAT gameplan for Canelo, I think that Golovkin will fight nobodies until he has beaten Hopkins record..... then he will fight Canelo..... then he will retire.

he aint beating Canelo, and they know it..... which is why they refused to negotiate on weight and then refused to accept 15mil

I am beginning to think that Loeffler is not the sharpest knife in the drawer after an insulting statement like this, Canelo and folks might be inclined to tell him to take a hike.

“If Canelo sees this fight and thinks that Gennady’s punching power isn’t as big as everyone says because he didn’t stop Jacobs, then maybe we can make the Canelo fight,” said Tom Loeffler."

Whether or not a fight is made has little to do with Canelo being afraid or not and everything to do with the split of the purse. With his mystic now gone, I think GGG's drawing power is diminished. Let's see what his PPV numbers are for this fight. Absent a fight with Canelo, they can only go down from here.

You have the contract Tom stop hiding it from GGG so he can sign it LMAO

[Verus]

I agree

but not for the reasons you said

Good analysis. You bring up some good points that have been overlooked.

[Motorcity Cobra]

Excellent marketing my Loffler. GGG is looking vulnerable on purpose to get the Canelo fight. That's why Loeffler is the best in the business folks.
