Why Golovkin IS Avoiding The Rematch

[mcdonalds]

How many did Canelo vs Golovkin do? So he grosses more money than every name on there for the event but he doesn't deserve better than 35%. Considering 1. They had a fight scheduled and he's not the one who couldn't fulfill the deal. 2. He had to suppliment the date with a last minute substitute and lost a bunch of money. Not sure what world you live in where it's ok to fck over other people and still try get over on them. He deserved to win the first fight, he was ready to fight the second time, and now he's supposed to take the same amount of money? Really. I also find it hilarious that you are up here defending someone who is currently suspended for using a banned substance and talking about who deserves what.

I didn't day he didnt deserve more than 35%, I said he didn't deserve 50%.

Any logical person knows GGG doesn't deserve a 50/50 split

He would have fought Saunders in Kakhstan last year but Oscar told him the Canelo fight would be off the table if he did.

And trust me .. Golovkin would make a hell of a lot more than 1 or maybe 2 million by fighting BJS in the UK or Murata in Japan. Maybe even more than Canelo will make fighting Spike in Sept.

he would have...could have.. but he didnt...instead he was chasing clout
Instead of legacy by becoming undisputed and holding all the belts
But his greed for the payday that canelo was giving him made him look the other way...and no he will never be in canelo level financial wise...canelo gets a guaranteed purse..a cut of the ppv and he keeps all the money from the mexican tv... nice try

Nice try at what?

They want extra money they didn't expect GBP to not negotiate

[boxingnumber247]

canelo vs chavez ppv over 1 millions buys
Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Canelo Álvarez ppv buys 2.5 millons

He signed up for a rematch, and it didn't happen because Canelo failed a drug test, then walked away from he fight.

Circumstances changed there and then. Golovkin is going to have to drop a belt. He deserves a better deal than the one he initially had, and he's trying to get it.

Talks will continue, they always do regardless of what is said, and I'm sure that 50/50 can be brought down. Canelo makes better money with GGG as his opponent.

So what you are saying is I can claim in my personal opinion that you don't deserve whatever paycheck you earn and that's cool. Since when is that cool, he deserves whatever he can negotiate, just like you deserve whatever paycheck you negotiate. If he feels he wants and deserves 50% that's his prerogative, he doesn't pay our bills and we don't pay his. I care about fights, this analyzing who deserves what is for managers and promoters. I'm a boxing fan not a financial analyst.

Did you watch the fight in London, or come over for the London press conference?

Nah didn't do either one, wife wasn't having it lol. I stayed around the corner from a booking house though and got decent odds on Mayweather by stoppage, put a thousand pounds on it, what I made back covered about a nights stay at the hotel I was at. It was more interesting discussing classic fights with older boxing fans, really makes you appreciate the old school. These millinnial fkers on here act like they know boxing but by contrast don't know ****, same in Philly the old heads and philly all have stories about their home fighters you'd never heard before.

P.S.: Highlight was meeting Nigel while I was there, classy f'king man.

How many did Canelo do with Khan? Kirkland went basic cable route. Liam Smith? Let's not act like he can just put up huge numbers on his own. There's a reason why he needed Cotto, Chavez Jr and Golovkin. He can't do numbers against just anyone. It takes two. I don't discuss money, you can go through my history I hate talking about purses or A-Side/B-Side bull****. I will make an exception and say he's worth whatever he feels he's worth. As I just finished explaining Canelo bringing in more revenue/popular is a matter of perspective. If he's so big and popular then let Canelo go fight Spike on PPV and let's see those numbers.

Bro, didnt you know? Ca$hnelo is the reason Mayweather/Canelo got buys! Mayweather can't sell a PPV on his own!

Who is this Mayweather?
I assume, from a boxrec search, they are talking about Adam Mayweather.
