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

[Diego Rodriguez]

But it was ggg who refused to sign the rescheduled rematch he had the power to make the fight by signing.his team is saying canelo really doesn't want the fight with 1 year inactive and knee surgery if that's true then this would be a perfect time to call canelos bluff and fight him and try to win.Mexican Americans whether they love him or hate him will always watch him to see him win or lose they love boxing to much not to tune in no matter who he fights just look at Chavez Jr who tested for diuretics fought only small bums was lazy ducked Canelo for years when he was the A side and could of fought him at the weight of his choosing margaritos bum ass was caught trying to load his gloves.

Both teams had the power to sign.

I believe Canelo's drawing power is in a downwards trajectory. The Golovkin fight and maybe a potential rematch are going to be his max going forward. He will do good numbers still him in that 300K range if he does not face a known fighter.

350K Angulo
300K Lara
900K Cotto
600K Khan
300K Smith
1M Chavez
1.3M Golovkin

If he goes back to fighting guys who do not have name brand he'll be in that 300K range. Maybe lower (people just don't care about him anymore) or higher (interested to see how he looks "clean"). To get in the upper echelon of PPV he needs someone with name recognition. Not sure how many of those guys exist now at MW or even brining a guy up from JMW. Jacobs, maybe he brings about 400K. Charlo, probably less. Saunders, maybe a good UK audience but no bump in US audience.

Sure Canelo can take other fights but lots of those fights are going to entail big risks and far less reward. Plus he isn't going to wipe the tarnish off. I guess looking at it IMO the fight that makes the most sense for Canelo is Golovkin. I wouldn't agree with 50/50 but 58/42, offering no more than 55/45 seems reasonable. Especially if I thought I was going to win. A win against Golovkin is the best thing that could happen to re-energize his career.

“Both promoters, we’re ready to go to start promoting this fight. We’re just waiting on the fighters’ side, just to finalize any of the outstanding details there would be. … There is, for sure, a structure in place for it to take place – basically for it to be rescheduled from the May fight to the September date.”

both promoters had no issue, guess who did ??? give me 50-50 ...
someone is pricing out lol..

Canelo's last fight against a no draw contender was 300K against Liam Smith.

Now he's tarnished with PED's. He has to take a beating draw wise.

I'd like to see what he does with Spike

Ggg's last fight against a no draw contender was not even on PPV lol... hopefully they dont fight spike, it will be BS, but if they do im sure it will generate much more than ggg-vanes...

After all the bull**** Canelo did to have the rematch cancelled, and Golovkin being the Champ with all the belts while Canelo is not even in the ratings anymore. 50/50 is totally fair.

You're right, and even if Canelo wins his next fight, regardless who his opponent is, it will be a tainted win. This will follow him forever. I believe that's why he is pricing himself out.

Vanes aint got a GD thing to do with this you

If anything, that just makes the fight bigger! Canelo did that, not ggg. So canelo should ask for more! What, did ggg beating Vanes make this rematch bigger? Hell no! Dumb b.itch

Ignorant fanboy ass licking *****. Canelo got caught cheating. Therefore he should not only be punished but the NSAC, but by every other opponent out there. ****** **** **** sucker. Eff you bithc!!

[Gate keeper]

But again, your only rebuttal is that GGG was the aggressor. Or that more people thought GGG won. Most people favor aggression. Regardless of whether it’s effective or not. And most people frown on a guy fighting going backwards, even if he’s being more effective. And that’s because most people don’t know **** about boxing, you’re a prime example.

Lol...gotta disagree with this. Even boxers who were on record giving their scores, mostly gave the fight to GGG. And based on the crowds reaction that night, so did they and they started out pro Canelo. And what of Thurman vs Porter? Most fans had Thurman winning despite Porter being more aggressive. And first there is no absolute rule on how to score fight so no one can be wrong. But generally landing cleanly counts the most. When that's even, only then do you look at other things. In the case of GGG vs Canelo, Canelo landed with better quality but GGG had better quantity most rounds and some rounds had quality and quantity. If I land 11 good jabs, 1 or 2 power shots from the opponent should not win them the round. And a bruised face does not indicate who won each round....just look at Algeri vs Provodnikov

[Warrior Scholar]

It should be 40% Golovkin, 60% Canelo. I have much respect for both men but I feel that Canelo was the boss in that last match, and is the best in the world.

Thurman's girlfriend is an attention whore, in the 11th round, the 2nd time the camera called on Thurman (HBO Boxing) for the Azat vs Vargas fight, the attention hungry skank looked at him and 'Hey baby. I love you,' and they kissed. Really took away from him the ability to recognize the camera and make a fist, do all the regular stuff fighters do. ..Malignant cnt if you ask me. Let the man get his glory, don't steal it.


When he goes down, gonna be over a skirt.

[Francis M.]

I'm all for GGG getting more than the original agreement but there is no scenario where he deserves 50-50
