Comments Thread For: What To Make Of GGG Placing 10% Chance on Canelo Rematch

[rogdogx]

Well it wouldn't be a smart business move for Gennady to fail to make the September fight. I know he's gonna have to give up that IBF title to Derevyanchencko now but the money for the Canelo is too good to pass up for the Canelo rematch. Gennady is the older fighter here and needs these big fights now. He's stylistically one of the most entertaining fighters but just isn't a draw yet because he didn't come over to the USA in his younger years like a Manny Pacquiao did. He's gotta make up for lost time by taking those big money fights when they're presented to him. They decided not to roll the dice and fight Derevyanchencko on short notice so they should probably just give up that IBF belt and focus on the big pay day. The point of boxing is to maximize your revenue and there is no better way to do that then to beat the cash cow in a grudge match. Golovkin probably won't be undisputed anyways because that would require cooperation from Saunders. They probably should have just fought Derevyanchencko for short money if they wanted to keep the titles but they went with low budget vanes instead. Maybe they can give Derevyanchencko some step aside money with that Canelo fight bread. Charlo's a mandatory, those Billy Joe and Derevyanchencko fights will still be out there. Bank now and then you have plenty of lucrative options afterwards as well.

... this Canelo-GGG situation looks like a fixed trilogy which went wrong...

Interesting comment. I never liked the trilogy talk that started even before a punch was thrown.

ohhh look who has popped his head back up the ****ter...it's Mongo and he is defending a proven ped user...Canelo is a cheat and has been on them even before the 1st golovkin fight.
Now go away mongo you have not been missed

how the fk would you know muppet ?

hey.....

did Hopkins duck his mando to break Monzon's record.....

Well said! Like the article said, "he's posturing for a bigger piece of the pie." That's a smart move! He shouldn't get anything less than 50/50!

I don't think he will get close to 50%

Canelo's current situation has nothing to do with how much Golovkin will/should get paid..... that will come down to numbers, and Golovkin is about to BOMB with Vanes

I can't see how/why the deal for the rematch will change

as soon as they start crying at Canelo, he will just fight someone else, I'm sure

GGG can do some big fights without the Nelo fight.

GGG v Hurd
GGG v Charlo
gGg v BJS
GGG V degale
ggG v Andrade

Etc

F Nelo.

Golovkin picked Munguia, Spike, and then Vanes

he aint gonna go anywhere near those guys lol

I think Canelo's image is in damage control, not to mention GGG's financial loss from this weekend (which is partially self-inflicted) which should give him added leverage.
