OP, I've posted numerous times asking for independent verification of such offer. The best anyone can come up with is 'well, they didn't flat out deny it, so it must be true'.
Which is somewhat hilarious given the hyperbole and lies that come out of promoter's mouths on a daily basis. Even if the offer was $15m, do we know any of the contract stipulations (e.g., GGG has one hand tied behind his back and agrees to get Nancy Kerrigan'ed on the way into the ring)?
The reality is GGG is the clear B side here, and Loeffler knows that. He doesn't want to get into a pissing match with GBP ala Arum and the Pac/Floyd thing, since the reality of the situation is they need Canelo more than Canelo needs them. Also, Loeffler historically has taken a much more private approach to negotiations, whether that works in his favor or not is another debate. I'm not saying he never talks about negotiations/contracts publicly, but that his actions here in no way constitute a confirmation of a 'no strings' 15 million dollar offer that people here keep insisting.
