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

Yes he does! Have I ever said different. Ill even do one better which Ive stated numerous times... Canelo owes GGG and his entire team am Apology! He's doing the VADA year round which I also stated he HAD to do.

so I have no clue on what we're actually debating over because we actually agree this time. Lol

spin what? I dont think 50-50 is realistic. Canelo is still the bigger draw and will still command a higher split. That being said, if you look at the canelo-cotto numbers (900k) vs. the Canelo-GGG numbers (1.3 million), plus the issue of pissing hot and likely losing the IBF title, my personal opinion is that somewhere between 60-40 and 55-45 would be a fair and reasonable split. But its not my money, neither side is giving me a taste, so what they ultimately decide is their business. Trying to tell 2 millionaires how much money they should accept is beyond ******ed.

As for Shadow702, he tries to act like reading Rafaels chat somehow makes him some kind of industry insider or something, with all kinds of inside info. Its laughable.

??? I dont remember fat dan ever saying that??? but whatever! Admit you were wrong and be a man. Didn't you say ggg was gonna KTFO of Canelo Einstein??? So how that work out???

canelo gives 0 ****s about them belts man...if he did care he wouldnt have dropped the wbc to begin with

For a guy who gives O ****s about belts, Canelo has paid a **** load of sanctioning fees during his career.

All of you guys just like to play politics for real.

The truth is Canelo is the A side but GGG is the champion. To me, it's exactly like how people say, to become the champion you can't just win, you need to be dominate in your win.

Are we having a popularity contest or what's the **** for real? Canelo is just proving without a doubt he isn't better than GGG and you all are just sitting there with your mouths open taking his ****.

Let's be honest. If Canelo doesn't have GGG is he gonna get the same kind of pay day if he didnt? No, he's not. Would he make more? Sure. But then his legacy is pretty much trash.

Sure thing. Fight Jacobs or BJS. Are they better than GGG? Didn't he vacate his titles when GGG came into the picture? Now he's also fighting bums?

God. The bias is too real.

Imagine this scenario playing out with anyone else or yourself and saying it's okay for this to happen. You guys are quite simply delusional.

50/50 will never happen. Anything above 40% is a win for team GGG. Like I said try for that a and throw im Oscars Kryptonite. Young girls and Kitchen utensils.

He fought smith it did nothing to hurt canelo he filled 52,000 at cowboy stadium and sold DOUBLE the ppvs of any GGG PPV. His worst fight generated far more money then any GGG fight. And no way he can fight murata without being stripped of 1 or more of his belts which hurt the all I care about is belts lie he has been telling his small fanbase. And good luck trying to air a fight in Japan with the time difference. It will make money with him being the b side to murata just like he had to go to uk and be the b side to brook but nothing like the canelo money. Whoever canelo picks he will make more money then GGG does and will still be the A side going forward. After smith fight which everyone said would not sell tickets or sell ppvs in their next fights canelo sold 1m ppvs buys and GGG sold 150K against jacobs. This reality that you folks live in that somehow one day GGG will be the bigger star then canelo is just fantasy. He's almost 40 and shown no improvement in his draw power from lemiuex to jacobs same nothing ppvs sold. Couldn't even sellout the tiny stubhub his last fight. Fight murata won't make him a bigger star and draw just like fighting brook didnt.

Again, I don't think GGG should be concerned with belts anymore, since he's now 36! Murata and Saunders are big money fights. They are not like fighting Canelo, but they're better than fighting Charlo, Dervy, or Jacobs. I also think Canelo can't just count on his fan base, simply because he's Mexican! He has damaged the image of Mexican Boxing, 1st by avoiding GGG for so long, then by not beating GGG, and now the PED scandal! His fans deserve a real fight, not Smith, not Khan, not Chavez Jr., and not Spike O' Sullivan!

... 65-35 is OK.......................

To me anything more is not reasonable. Unfortunatley canelo is the star ans bigge name. Even if ggg knocks him out canelo will still be the bigger name he just has a bigger following

[BDG]

real cute how you switched off where I wrote saunders and put Sadam Ali. Chances are, ggg will end up with a more credible opponent than Canelo will. That's just been the golden boy way for the past 3 yrs when it comes to the only big name fighter in their stable.

GGG's resume does not support your statement.
