Comments Thread For: Golovkin Promoter Explains GGG's Position: He Wants Fair Split!

[Hnnnggg]

GGG is not pricing himself out, purses revolve around perceived value. Any other fight for both guys would bring in significantly less revenue. If canelo actually wanted to fight just to prove he’s better, he would, which is more than enough incentive in addition to an enormous purse regardless of the split. Part of the pie is still more than 0% and still more than a larger piece of another fight. He’ll most likely fight spike if this fight falls out. Horrible PR for canelo especially after this debacle.

What about moving 3 weight classes? Or 4? Or is it 5?

Or Hagle.. Oh wait.. Maybe Monzo.. Shít.?
RJJ was only MW for a brief time, where he fought nobody of note.
Toney.. You think GGG could hit 250 pounds?
Hopkins' first fight was at 180 pounds.

The reason why GGG hasn't moved up, is because he started pro late. He was a grown ass man.

Ward, Pac, Mayweather, Loma, Jack, Toney, Hopkins , Leonard, Duran, Hearns, Holifield, Bellew, Haye, Rigo, Charlo,etc.. etc... must have all been kids when they made the jump. Hmm...…...

Sounds like Loeffer's confirmation that GGG's pricing himself out .

This... good stuff.

Golovkin has no value, he can't draw flies to **** and that's a proven fact.

Canelo vs Smith - 300k ppv buys
Canelo vs ggg - 1.3 million buys

Must have some value

Must have some value

Golovkin vs lemieux... 97k canelo vs golovkin 1.3 million... which one's the bigger draw? Don't be a moron.

Make a valid point and stop over exaggerating. I said 168-175 to challenge himself. That's what I posted, now you on the other hand keep coming up with bs. If you can't really talk about the things in my post stop replying to me.You are a person that will argue with a wall. You don't make any valid points and keep coming up with unrealistic points. I didn't ask the guy to move to HW but challenge himself like other fighters have. I understand that he isn't like Krusher or Loma but I guess you are ok with his fight selection.

Krusher who also never moved up in weight?
That really cleared things up, thanks.

97 K, there's a reason you're 97 K.

Dumbass

Ward went down in weight, not up.
Mayweather went up in weight when he was 28. What fighters were there at SMW compared to MW 8 years ago?
Jack started at 175.
Already discussed Toney and Hopkins.
Leonard moved up in weight after a 3 year delay.

Again, not every fighter NEEDS to make the jump.

There's a reason that you believe that unsourced wife's tale, and I think your final word aptly describes why.
