    If he does that and the fight is pushed back to next year you can't blame cantnelo. At least I wouldn't

      I just dont.

      If there's 10 mill in a fight over there why ever fight over here?
      $15mill is nothing for that event. The World Expo is costing Kazakhstan around $3 billion, much of it from private investors.

        There's enough $ put up to get him out of the UK for the most dangerous fight of his career.
        Right, much rather face the mando of Khurztide for all those many more sheckles

          The World Bank estimates that more than 40% of Mexicans live in poverty but I dont see Canelo manning the shelters either
          Don't order PPV son, too many beggars and homeless in America..... Same faulty logic..

                I don't know about that. At the post fight press conference, Abel said that Golovkin would be vacating his titles after Saunders. I don't think he has any intent on fighting Tureano or the Langford/Khurtsidze winner. If no Canelo, he might go after Jacobs (but I'm betting it'll be difficult to make that fight again, Jacobs sounds like he wants to live off that close loss for awhile), Eubank, Charlo, Rameriz, or DeGale.
                I think what Abel said was that he expected that Jacobs would be able to pick up one of the belts once Gennady vacates them as he is the 2nd best middleweight. I don't think he'd vacate before September, the Canelo is too big and having all the belts would give him a lot of leverage and build the fight up even more.

                I don't think any of the mandatories will give Jacobs a fight after his performance last week, so while I would like to see him fight GGG again, he's probably best off establishing himself at super middleweight if he wants to force a rematch.

                  As I understand, they signed a contract to fight each other before Don King even knew where he was going to get the money from. Does that excuse them? I don't know. Regardless, I don't think it's right. And I find it implausible that the fight couldn't have been made any other way.

                  Do you personally think it's morally correct to take blood money from a brutal military dictator of a poor country to promote a fight? I don't. I would love to hear your opinion though.

                    They already paid Khurtsidze to step aside money and giving him Tommy Langford

                      Yeah, why would anybody blame the side that's been saying next September since last September, if they duck again?
                      Remember when ODLH said "100% the fight has to happen in September"?
                      Remember all his bull**** about calling Loeffler to make the fight and he better answer the phone?
                      They've done nothing but bull**** since after the Cotto fight but let's not blame them lol
