I called it last year. GGG is now like everyone else, a two fight a year fighter.
Originally posted by DoktorSleepless View PostThe WBA is absolutely irelavent here. I could see them negotiating even past the purse bid like what what happened for Abraham vs Ramirez. WBA's deadlines mean squat even if they actually enforced them. Golovkin/K2 has wasted time negotiating with Jacobs because they wanted to waste time with Jacobs, not because of anything to with Jacobs being a mandatory for the WBA. They could have enforced a purse bid long ago, if they wanted it. That's what so mind boggling about this. GGG could have fought 3 times this year, and still have fought Jacobs exactly at the same time they're planning on now. I don't know what K2 is thinking. Have they already abandoned their stragedy of keeping GGG active? If the Canelo fight happens, I could see GGG fighting only twice again this year.
Originally posted by DoktorSleepless View PostIf Jacobs doesn't want to fight GGG at all, this whole negotiation is a waste of time because it's not gonna happen regardless.
If Jacobs was the super champion, he would have a lot to lose, but he isn't. Losing a kiddie version of the WBA means nothing. Not fighting GGG while keeping the Kiddie WBA belt would be as equally embarrassing as vacating while not fighting GGG. It's the fact that he would duck GGG, not the Kiddie WBA belt that matters in fan's perspective.
None of this explains why it makes sense for GGG to put everything on hold for Jacobs. Jacobs is not a highly coveted fighter. Jacobs is not popular. Jacobs has never been in a fight that has had more than 600k viewers in ratings. GGG is losing money by skipping a third fight this year for Jacobs alone in April.
The only explanation is that GGG is now a two fight per year fighter by choice.Last edited by DoktorSleepless; 04-10-2017, 11:22 PM.

but, Mayweather/McGregor will sell 1.5 - 2mil PPV's
Canelo/Golovkin will sell about the same as Canelo/Chavez
about 800-900k
NO REAL boxing fan is going to pay for this SHT!!!

GGG has ZERO leverage now, must just take whatever offer Golden Boy has on the table today because if he waits till after Chavez fight the offer will drop. He getting ****d at the negotiations table should of taken the 15m offer BEFORE the Jacobs fight. K2 look like phuking amateurs
Now by releasing that they wanted Saunders to unify and then pulled out, they are now looking bad from a PR perspective. They were getting played by Canelo and GB way before this...now they really look foolish.

Conor is the biggest name in combat sports. Bigger than Canelo and bigger than Floyd. He probably has more Mexican fans than Canelo. The MMA crowd will tune in, the boxing crowd will tune. Canelo will have to take a backseat to King Conor.

they are taking the fights they want, and passing on the rest
just like EVERY other fighter
if they could fight a TBA in Fcukistan, they would do it
but nope, because they had to fight Saunders, they passed
NOW, they will happily wait for Canelo..... despite Tom Loeffler admitting a few days ago, that waiting for Canelo would be silly/pointless
I told you all what's up

If Floyd was TRULY smart he would be fighting McGregor on St. Patty's Day. A Bunch of DRUNK Irish men probably would be too drunk to know the difference between a REAL Boxing match and that SHT Sideshow.
YEAH Let's watch a 40 year old man come out of a 2 YEAR retirement to fight a guy with ZERO Boxing Wins in a boxing match??? And probably for at LEAST $100.

De La Hoya has ALWAYS said GGG vs Canelo September 2017. If it doesnt happen what are Canelo's NUTHUGERS going to say.
