Funny how you ride rigo but FORGET to bring up Floyd after 20 years you've been wrong, Andre Ward, Errol Spence Jr. I mean come on dude get more than one right so you have the right to talk ish.

20 yrs being wrong? Lol. I never thought he was gonna lose against any them slow footed or old guys he fought. Not once. So thats your first wrong of the post...i am an errol spence jr fan and have not once picked him to lose, thats you second strike...and i really never cared either way about ward, he a top talent who worked his skills perfectly, so theres your third strike. You talk **** and are proven a fool and just move on to the next guy lol. You been lil g'n for so fookin long and now he has tied b hop record at mw and im sure when GGG is 40 and loses youll be the "you heard it here first" kinda guy hahahaha. Yet somehow you "exposing" everyone haha. Funny stuff, i get a true laugh out of it and enjoy our little back and forths always. Until next time....

They keep mentioning Murata. It should be Canelo/Saunders/Derevyanchenko the only options. Why the **** would he want to drop a title to fight Murata?

Yen. Lots of.

Can you explain that part about Saunders and the $6million? I'm confused.

And can you tell me where Sergiy said he would fight for the same amount that Vanes did? Not saying I don't believe you, I Just haven't seen it.

The 1st part was years ago Loeffler saying they offered over $6 million "Life Changing" money to fight Saunders. Even in an interview he was point blank asked about it. And loeffler smiled and laughed it. The interviewer even came off thinking it was legit offer. Saunders was blasted in the media by fans and experts alike for not taking that much. Saunders later defended himself and saying it was a BS offer. The same $1.5 Lemuix got.

Saunders even said $6 million he would fight GGG in the states.


Sergiy said he was ready and fought very hard to get the fight and sent letters to the IBF demanding they not let GGG fight Vanes. He said he was ready to go no excuses. Team GGG was the ones who complained and wanted more money. Not Sergiy.

There's Wade, Monroe, and Jeff Horn on the menu. Nevermind Charlo cause he doesn't sell tickets like Wade

[hrt3333]

Charlo, Saunders, 168 tourney winner, Derevyanchenko all good fights and at least some of these guys are better than Canelo

Okay. Got it.

So, when Saunders asked for $7m to fight even a fighter like Jacobs...do you think it's well within reason to believe he'd want more to fight someone who is a bigger draw, bigger threat, has more at stake, offers more money, and a bigger status in GGG?

I'm privy to the whole situation regarding Sergiy. I just NEVER heard him say he will take $225k.

To be clear, I didn't like Vanes as an opponent. I didn't like Sergiy as an opponent on only 3 weeks notice either. It's simply not fair to enforce a mandatory with 3 weeks left. Even if that mandatory was monroe, or wade, etc. Don't enforce something that you normally wouldn't with anyone else. I'm all for fairness.

In saying that, GGG will have to fight Sergiy soon. Or give up the belt. Or if the IBF grants other exceptions. That's the only way. Regardless of the fact that "I" don't think Sergiy warrants that IBF title fight with only 12 fights. I don't see how fighting an 8 round fight can make him a mandatory. But again, I'm just a fan. It's not for me to understand. It's not for anyone to understand. Rules are rules. GGG has to abide by them or be stripped. Pretty simple

In other words, Canelo won't give me a payday, so I'll fight a few bums instead.

Welcome to the crazy world of the Alphabit Soups. Where even fighters after they're dead can move up in rankings...

The only person Who asked for more money was GGG when Sergiy was begging for the fight. I dont think he had a leg to stand on if he even tried. He just said he wanted his belt and wasnt taking step aside money. He wrote the IBF demanding them honor their rules. Which is fair IMO.

We shall find out soon enough. GGG has to fight Sergiy next or lose the IBF according to them. Is he worthy ??? Who knows? I do know he will last more than 2 rounds.

Rolling pin ,whisks, and God knows whatever else. I mean some serious sht is wrong with Oscar. Letting 2 teenage chicks literally shove everything IN him but the kitchen sink.

If Ibwas Canelo I would distance myself as far away from him as possible.

Canelo takes the pics 🎬
