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

1. Jacobs landed more punches on ggg than Canelo did so saying he was tagged more than ever before is false and sounds like you're a bit of a Canelo fan girl. Jacobs has a better argument to a draw vs ggg than Canelo does. 2. I never said ggg should get 50 %. I just said he should get more than 35% based on what transpired in leading up to the rematch getting cancelled.

I had Jacobs and Canelo outpointing GGG.

Yep. Boxers like everyone else are a product of their age. There are more divas now with the age of social media and everyone seemingly getting their 15 minutes of fame. The selfless type, strong silent type, and those who put the sport above themselves are a vanishing breed in the America of today.

well said man

I agree, and those are the ones that really need a good team around them or they wont get the money they deserve.

35% is too much for Borat, 50% is living in a dream world.

But you don’t bring in 50% of the revenue or fans. :/....

Damn, GGG. Don’t do this. Don’t be that guy. You’re not even a PPV fighter. Doesn’t matter how great he is...

Lol...acknowledges GGG hater had a moment of GGG derangement syndrome with his senseless statement. Responds by saying it's GGG fans who dksab. Gotta love GGG haters, they're in a class of their own. Very similar to how **********s reacted to *****.

??? Yup a GGG fan... Show me some more?

[Shadoww702]

Are you even responding to my post? When did I say GGG did close to 400k? All I did was point out your bias in picking different sources for PPV numbers to make the discrepancy larger in favor of Canelo and comparing Canelo vs a named fighter to GGG vs a non-named fighter for PPV numbers.

When you actually keep the sources consistent and compare GGG vs a no name to Canelo vs a no name, you'll see Canelo performs at a 2 to 1 ratio in PPV buys vs GGG. No doubt inflated by an extra boost from Mexican holidays which is why he only fights twice a year but I digress. Either way, about 35% makes sense. Furthermore, GGG has 3 world belts and his PPV with Canelo did better numbers than Chavez, giving GGG some leverage in total purse...So no matter how you look at it, numbers don't lie, he can make a very good case for 35% - 40%. But, like I said, I think 50 is too high.

And to what are you referring to with bets and new accounts? I've no idea what you're talking about. I did bet someone before on this fight, not sure if that was you, and it was a draw though most people said GGG won and the results were spoiled by that ridiculous 110-118 card. I'll let you take that for what it is.

Honestly?? I dont have time to read your book. Give me a day or 2

actually he is. Its contract law 101. Canelos breach of contract (whether deliberate or merely negligent) cost GGG time, money, and possibly his IBF title. He absolutely is liable for damages.

Now whether or not GGG decides to actually sue him for it (as Wilder did to Poketkin) is another matter

Obviously it aint because he begging for more money instead of taking him to court for breaching the contract as you claim.

You're the same guy who thinks he knows more than a federal judge so your legal opinion means nothing.

[sweetpea87]

Hopefully they compromise something in the middle and get the fight made.

c'mon man, GGG is not going to destroy Charlo and Andrade. They are good young fighters and GGG is what 37? Even if GGG were to win, it won't be easy. I give Charlo a chance to beat GGG.

Charlo and Andrade lack the chin and heart to stand in front of GGG. GGG puts so much pressure on a fighter you are forced to run not box to survive and these USA fighters today don't have it inside to risk their health vs a real lion like ggg. It's a culture trait that's long gone in American boxing.
