Comments Thread For: GGG Promoter: Canelo Needs The Rematch To Save His Image!

[chubuk7]

Are you ******ed??? Canelo has the biggest bargaining chip in boxing and that’s asses he puts in seats at his fights and ppv sales...

Me ******ed? That's umpossible! Well... I must be, because I'm talking to you like you're worth my time.

Team GGG bluffing, they will crawl out of their hole and beg for that 35% soon enough.

GGG will not play second fiddle to Alvarez

GGG is old with no other big money fight options.

Canelo in 24/7/365 VADA is going to clear his name going forward no matter who he fights.

GGG's management needs to get more realistic. Greedy fkers.

Canelo can prove he is the "boss" by fighting either Danny Jacobs or Charlo and winning (legitimately). I bet either of them would take a 65/35 split. However my prediction is that if Canelo won't fight GGG he'll pick only easy opponents.

They would take a $3 million flat fee plus 10% of the ppv money, neither of those jokers will get 35%.

That's what I've been saying. The pressure is definitely on him. He needs to prove to boxing fans that he can defeat GGG without juicing. Besides, it has already done irreparable harm to his legacy.

I'm a former Canelo fan and still like his fighting style way more than Golovkin's, but what legacy does Canelo have to protect?

His best ever career high is beating old, small Cotto in a competitive fight and receiving a graduate boxing lesson from Mayweather.

Canelote will earn $40 million on this fight according to GBP...

The $40 million is probably based on Canelo getting a 65/35 split. A 50/50 split would still give him $31 million. Where else can he make $31 million?

Canelo don’t need triple g as long as he fights any of the other top mw.... no lemule or spike trash fights

He will maybe fight Spike cherry picker.

It sounds more like ggg needs the fight. Canelo has already moved on. ggg is NOT getting 50%. Eddie Hearn has already confirmed that Golden Boy has contacted them about a Jacobs fight.

Although I agree GGG as the Champ deserves at least 50% or approximately $31 million (based on $62 million total revenue), I think he should accept the 50/35 split Canelo's team is offering. That is still $21 million. If a third fight is needed then it should be a 65/35 split favoring GGG.

Agreed but they are both dangerous fights for Canelo.
A win over Canelo would guaranty much larger future paydays.

Canelo WILL NOT FIGHT Jacobs! He's too dangerous. Unlike Canelo's opponents Jacobs is much bigger and stronger than him. Canelo fights people that are much smaller than him (eg Amir, Liam, Cotto). The only exception is Chavez Jr. and he was drained hardcore. Spike is next, 100% guaranteed.
