Comments Thread For: Sanchez: GGG Won't Be Unified Champ; Saunders Won't Fight Him

[Metho_4u]

It would be funny to see Canelo give golovkin the finger and fight Saunders instead and leave golovkin to be forced to fight charlo, Andrade, etc...

[Satir]

dont be naive, Sanchez is just provoking BJ Saunders to respond, he's waiting from BJS saying "yes, i'm ready to fight GGG on your terms"

Look Out

Hey man, Don't count out Murray....He can box...

He has a decent chance.... He beat the German & got robbed twice...At title shots...

Saunders has no power to fear....So Think its not going to be a walk in the park for Saunders..

This makes total sense. I don't get why people aren't believing this. Maybe the whole " Saunders doesn't want to fight Gennady" was a bit much.

But it's very much reasonable to believe that if Saunders expects $7m fighting Jacobs, then he will certainly demand more for a Gennady fight. Regardless of where that fight takes place, that type of money just doesn't exist. Not in Vegas, not in NY, not in the UK.

He should ask for more money. He has a belt and they claim they want to unify. It's not BJS fault that GGG can't draw flies to ****. If he is the big star he claims he is then HBO shouldn't have a problem putting up the money.

don't think there's any truth to that otherwise Eddie Hearn will have been straight onto IFL TV telling everyone

That's the point I'm making.

That money doesn't exist for a Jacobs fight. And it won't exist for a Gennady fight.

Huh?

1. When has GGG claimed he was such a big star that he was able to garner enough money to pay an opponent $10 million?

2. It indeed is Saunders' fault for asking so much for a Jacobs fight. That type of money just doesn't exist.

3. You're working off false notions. If the money isn't there, where do they expect the money to come from? It just isn't reasonable.

Of course Saunders may go to 168 to fight the winner of Groves vs Callum Smith, that is probably what he will do, he would have a chance at a win against his fellow Brits.

He's been saying Degale for some time now, but I get your point. This is the exact same path that Eubank took, much easier there. He won a title but really was short lived.

Do you really believe BJS doesn’t want to fight GGG?

He wants the money for sure, not sure he really wants the tough challenge. Notice his last 4 fights have been against GGG has beens. Not like he's been improving his resume by much.

Ding, Ding! Someone can read between the lines!
