Comments Thread For: Chavez Jr: Says Return Has Been Set Down For January 26 in LA

[Scipio2009]

turning down a minimum of 12 million dollars for ggg was the worst decision he ever did. wow that was dumb. even if he lost to ggg canelo still would have cherry picked him. i mean he lost to unknown fonfara and canelo didnt mind.

Cost/risk of freedom. Televisa and Showtime both put up money for the Fonfara and Reyes fights, and we have no idea what he got in getting the back-end money there too.

Nice try though

it was a 2 fight deal...you think he made 12 to 17 mill against fonfara and reyes???

It called for the Golovkin fight to pay him a minimum $7 million, and if he lost that fight, we guaranteed him another fight for $5 million. Now if he beat Golovkin, then we would pay him a minimum for his next fight of $10 million,"

"So we would…do these two fights, and the minimum he would make is $12 million, and if he was successful, $17 million plus. He turned that offer down. So we offered him a one-fight offer at considerably less money but still better than what Golovkin accepted for the fight and he turned that down."

addresing your "price of freedom" he still would have made more for a one off fight against ggg then fonfarra.

He was then offered a 1 fight deal for $2.1 million with no ppv money. Plus on top of that GGG added a $1,000,000 per/lb penalty. Chavez could of ended up iwing money! Or ay least not making sht!

Why wouldnt Bob Arum stick to the contract and orginal terms??? 1 fight 7 million for a huge ppv fight?? *** GGG woudnt even take $15 million for Canelo let alone 2.1.

He would of owed 3 fights to Bob. Orginal one plus 2. And you know damn well he would of had to sign ANOTHER extension before the rematch...

7 million to fight Gonady? What was GGG gonna make 50K? The only truth in this post is that Jr surely would have made more vs GGG than Fanfara.
