Bigdummyshow, with you not being the sharpest knife in the drawer, this post might be a little past your comprehension level but try to keep up. Why would Canelo keep the trinket that would mandate that his opponent (g string) would get 33% of the purse when it's Canelo that brings the financial clout to this fight? Why not trash the trinket, make the fight later and have the purses reflect both fighters drawing power? Using this scenario $15 million is actually over paying g string.
Btw, did you ever come up with the link that backs up your post when you accused Andre Ward of being a wife beater? Keeping in mind that only a low life scum bag ****sukker would accuse Ward (or anyone else) of being a wife beater with ZERO back up. I'd hate to think you're the type low life scum bag ****sukker that would do something like that. I'd hate to think you pulled it out of your arse to fit your agenda so please post that linkComment

33% sounds pretty fair to me. Canelo might sell more PPV's than Golovkin but his numbers have been on a decline lately. GGG is the only name around his weight division that will boost those numbers and you surely have to acknowledge that fact. Canelo is probably the only name that will make GGG's sell more than what their doing right now also. If they want their PPV's to increase than that is the fight that will make it happen.Comment

So if you and another guy were building a house together and you were responsible for 85% of the work and expertise to build that house and it brought in a 100k price, you would give your partner 33%? BULLSHYE!
The Canelo/Chavez Jr fight will bring in better numbers than a Canelo/g string fight will. Simple economics.
Like it or not, Canelo will make serious money no matter who he fights. With two PPV flops already under his belt, g string just can't say that.
Floyd took the short money vs Oscar in order to become a PPV star. Canelo took the short money vs Floyd in order to become a PPV star. Is it really too much to ask g string to take the short money (is 15 million short money?) in order to become a PPV star?Last edited by just the facts; 05-05-2017, 06:29 PM.Comment

You are right. If the $15 million dollar offer to Golovkin is indeed real and not just talk from Oscar, than he would be a fool not to take it. But lets not exaggerate here. Canelo wouldn't be carrying 85%. Like I said, it takes two big names to do big numbers. Who else could Canelo (or Golovkin) fight that would bring in as many PPV numbers as their fight will? The answer is nobody. Maybe if Canelo fought Pacquiao but that won't happen as Canelo is saying he will be fighting at 160 from now on and Pacquiao was recently talking about fights at 140. Too much of a size difference. And idk dude. I don't see Canelo-Chavez Jr. doing more PPV sales than Canelo-Golovkin. The reason being because the Chavez Jr. fight just came out of the blue whereas they've been building up the GGG fight for over a year now and it will probably be another year before the fight takes place, if it even does at all.Comment

Mexico's Independence Day...the most important national holiday in Mexico is celebrated on September 16...which is the scheduled date for the fight. I'm pretty sure they will stick to the plan.Comment

lol it's never been about fighting on the actual day specifically May 5th or September 16th. It's always been about fighting on the weekend of "cinco de mayo" which is not even celebrated in Mexico because it was just the victory of the battle of Puebla, or the weekend of september 16 which is the actual Mexican Independence Day. By this logic Chavez, De La Hoya, Barrera, Morales, Marquez would only fight every 5 years back in the day..Comment
