Will K2 take BJS' bluff about finalizing by end of week or else no fight?

[Lester Tutor]

BJS says no problem with gloves, entrance, going to his back yard, but just wants it to be fair. Says he is ready to do it but it has to be fair...

That can only mean one thing. Someone is going to get blamed for pricing themselves out. If this is the dream fight in Kazakhstan for the WBO, they must give BJS what he wants?

He mentioned four big fights on radar. Eubank Jr. 2, Canelo, Golovkin... who's the 4th?

Saunders has told anyone and everyone what his price is for the fight; $3m-$4m, and Billy Joe Saunders is ready to go.

With the fight being primetime in Germany, primetime in the UK, with the Kazakh government/government partners putting up a good amount of money behind Golovkin, it's on Golovkin to actually put the money where his mouth is.

Pay Saunders his $4m, and split the rest of the take (gate/sponsors, international TV in Germany/UK/Russia/Central Asia, the day/night rights on the fight with HBO, etc) between K2 and Golovkin.

No idea how much money would be left, but that's the cost of chasing a dream

Where would the venue even be? Attendance capacity.

Think the Astana Arena, 30,000+ capacity

Is that stadium near the Expo? Transportation. People attending the expo will oh $12 dolllars a pop. How do you convince Kazakh locals or foreigners to pay in USD or Euro to compensate for the purses? Ironically this is to save energy, future technology. You can't price tickets high

Think you've been watching too much Borat, doubt theres a place for people to leave their horses and carts near the stadium. Its former Soviet Union, oil rich, plenty of money if they want to show off.

How in the heck would I know which venue in Kazakhstan would be best for the fight? Ask K2; let them figure it out.

If K2 doesn't want to pay the price, Saul Alvarez will likely be happy to pay the price (the September PPV likely goes to either Cotto, Chavez Jr, or Timothy Bradley at a catchweight, with Saunders getting the December/January date on regular HBO).

Saunders isn't going to fight for K2's $1m, when he knows that the market value for his spot is worth significantly more than that.

Don't expect all that much from ticket sales; no different than what looks to be the case in New Zealand and what Paulie has said of Italy, the bulk of the live gate money will be derieved from event sponsors
