Bunch of fk'n parrots.
Golovkin didn't cut the money, HBO wasn't signing off on a PPV for that bout. The offer was originally sent to O'Sullivan when Loeffler thought they'd still have a PPV, the day after Canelo withdrew! Once HBO came back & said no to that then of course the returns (for both fighters) diminished greatly. Golovkin still kept the date, meanwhile Spike turned down $220k & fought a WW on 05/04 for peanuts.
Gary O'Sullivan $20k, Berlin Abreu $15k.
Don't you think GBP had a little to do with that? Spike made less than 10%. He obviously was holding off for the larger Canelo payday that's been brewing for months.
The crap some of you people eat & spew is unbelievable.
Canelo 04/03 withdraws from Golovkin rematch on May 5
Spike 04/04: "I’ve said yes to fighting GGG"
Spike 04/14: "Money-wise it’s not on PPV and the fight’s not worth the money that it should be."
