Comments Thread For: Golovkin Promoter: Canelo Wants 65-35, We Want Fair 50-50 Split!

[rrayvez]

You realize they already agreed to 65-35 for May 5th right? Not really a slap in the face if they thought it was fair before...

you realize that since then, Canelo has tested positive for peds and cancelled that agreed upon fight right? That altered circumstances a bit. Acting as if everything is still the same and that Canelo didn't f* k up is disrespectful and a slap in the face. The honorable thing to do would've been to admit that their agreed upon rematch was called off entirely because of Canelo. Whether it be due to cheating or negligence. As a result, we will up the offer 5% or so for Sept. But no, the diva and his team try to act like everyone should just forget what Canelo did and pretend like it wasn't a big deal.

Results just came back last night he passed another couple of random vada test.... but continue on.

Love GGG and not a big fan of Alvaroids but I think GGG should lower it to 40-45%.Alvaroids is calling the shot and we all have to admit that. Take it & beat the crap out of the cheater-nelo Alvaroids.

Youve been hating on Canelo for YEARS! Like youll ever give him a fair share. A Black or MexiCAN man would of had a better shot in court with a ALL white jury not convicting in the 30's then with you being fair.

he doesn't deserve a 50-50 split but he deserves more that the 35 he would've gotten. Whether you're saying it's delayed or not, Canelo ****ed up the rematch. It wasn't postponed, it was straight up cancelled. It wasn't like it was an injury that got the fight postponed. The fight got cancelled because Canelo got popped. Therefore circumstances changed, Canelos reputation took a hit, ggg had to find a new opponent and venture in a months time. For those reasons, ggg does deserve more than what was previously agreed upon. Just face it, your boy and Oscar love to look for reasons to put off a dangerous fight for canelo. so sit back and enjoy Canelo vs spike, because it'll give you and extra 6 - 8 months of pretending like Canelo is boxings gift to the world before he has to get back In the ring with a credible fighter.

65-35 is a lot closer to reality than 50-50...
when your biggest ppv sold 170k 50-50 is plain delusional...

They bugging If they agreed to the 35 for the May 5th fight They should take it. Canelo did cause the fight to get cancelled but he's not responsible for giving GGG money He lost on the fight.

If GGG feels he deserves 50/50 then put together an offer with his team as the lead promoter

I've been saying that for two days now. If not, it's time to get those mandos done.

The elephant in the room is what is going on between Loeffler and GGG? They not on the same page according to reports Loeffler and golden boy have been negotiating for weeks to get this deal for sept done Loeffler signed off on the split took it to his client who refuses to sign and is now demanding a huge difference in pay. So Loeffler knows GGGs split he cut the deal for may and he worked out the deal for sept. It's his client who blew the deal up. How is Loeffler not on the same page with his client ahead of time? Also it was clear Loeffler didn't want to keep the may date. He knew it was a disaster after he secured the MGM then realized GGG couldn't fill it then had to downgrade to the stubhub. Then when they found out the IBF would strip him if he fought vanes. It was GGG who demanded not to move the date regardless of the consequences or how it would hurt his image if the stubhub was empty.

Loeffler can't control GGG it was evident after his drug cheat rant where he went rogue callimg Nevada "*********s" at a time they needed Nevada to sanction the fight to get paid and may have effected the Nevada rulling. A rant Loeffler had to walk back the next day sounding like he worked for golden boy not GGG. Loeffler wanted to scrap the may 5 date and Loeffler worked out a deal with golden boy for Sept that GGG won't sign and blew up.

recently GGG just had a match at stub hub, with ALL of the promotion of this fight, on CINCO DE MAYO.....he couldnt draw flies to sh|t. his leverage flew out of the door

[Verus]

Pednelo is smoking if he thinks he deserves 65 percent after cheating.

Watch his next ppv flop when nobody wants to purchase a cheaters ppv

GGG needs to sign to fight Jacobs or Saunders in Vegas.

I'll take another run at this. What GGG deserves and what he or others think is fair is irrelevant in a free market! What Canelo deserves or what he thinks is fair is irrelevant in a free market! Even what the Pope himself thinks is a fair share for each fighter is irrelevant in a free market. Loeffler knows that and that is why they and their cheerleaders are whining and crying the blues publicly in the hope of pressuring GB and Canelo to accept their version of "fairness." I made a suggestion before to enhance the GB. I now suggest that this be Golden Boy's last and final offer -- the same 65-35 split that GGG originally accepted PLUS an autographed picture of Bernard Hopkins and there is more PLUS an autographed picture of Oscar.

Doesn't matter who's the champion, Canelo is clearly the A side I think 60-40 would be fair.
