It will be somewhere between 60:40 and 57:43. So I think that in the end, the Loeffler/GGG tactics will have worked quite well (since +5-8% compared to the initial deal is a lot in absolute numbers).
It's the old strategy: asking for something unrealistic (50:50) to get a better deal.Comment

all I said was Canelo vs O'sullivan would be a slap in the face to knowledgeable boxing fans. Now if you want to support it because you love Canelo unconditionally, then yeah, that's fine and it's your choice. It's also my opinion that you'd be a sucker to do so and would be supporting a fight that isn't best for boxing. But I learned long ago that there are 2 boxing fans. Fans of the sport and then fans of a specific fighter or fighters. You are the latter.Comment

Jacobs refused to fight for the IBF belt last year against GGG because he wouldn't agree to the IBF's second day weighin. So only GGG's other belts were on the line for that fight. Jacobs can fight canelo for more money or fight for the other belts that don't have a mandated second day weighin.Last edited by bigdunny1; 06-12-2018, 12:55 PM.Comment

i think that the important point is that jacobs didnt care about the ibf belt before (since didnt even do 2nd weighin), so he wouldnt hesitate to pick a canelo fight over a shot at the ibf title...Comment
