Comments Thread For: Golden Boy Prez: Golovkin Must Accept 57.5-42.5 By Tomorrow

[Shadoww702]

1) The 50/50% was a negotiating ploy. Anyone with a little common sense knew that. It worked, he is getting more than 7% more.

2) Glad they set a deadline, Golovkin should and I fully expect him to take the fight.

3) certain individuals might have to call it a duck if they want to be consistent. If Golovkin doesn't take it I would call it being stubborn. He already fought the guy and was signed up to fight him again. Only his ego and feeling like he isn't getting his worth would be the reason IMO for not fighting Canelo. That would be a really poor financial decision.

I would call that ****** not stubborn. And would laugh my ass off if he choses Sergiy or Charlo and loses.

Thats rich...triple ggg being dictated to by canelo's manager who's fighter is still servimg a 6 month ban for ped use.
The irony

... I see that most of you agree...

Not all as you can see. Some think GGG should get 90% and Pednelo 10%.

Canelo has done everything askes of him. If GGG dont accept it that's his loss. As long as Canelo fight Jacobs im good. Let GGG feast on more no hoppers like Vanes

Actually it was Loeffler who kept this alive.

Wow, that's a great offer. Golovkin doesn't even deserve 35%.

Canelo vs. Chavez Jr.: 1 million PPV buys
Canelo vs. Smith: 300K PPV buys
Canelo vs. Khan: 600K PPV buys
Canelo vs. Cotto: 900K PPV buys
Canelo vs. Lara: 300K PPV buys
Canelo vs. Angulo: 350K PPV buys

That's 3.45 million PPV buys. If you don't consider Canelo the A-Side against Cotto (Canelo really was the A-Side but was willing to concede to Cotto's demands to get the fight done and earn his status) subtract that 900K and Canelo's PPV total as the A-Side is 2.55 million PPV buys.

On the other hand, here's Golovkin's total:

Golovkin vs. Lemieux: 150K PPV buys
Golovkin vs. Jacobs: 170K PPV buys

That's 320K PPV buys for Golovkin's career. 2.55 million PPV buys for Canelo's career.

You can add the 1.3M PPV buys from Canelo vs. Golovkin to Golovkin's PPV total and not add those buys to Canelo's total and Golovkin still wouldn't be close to Canelo's 2.55 million PPV buys total.

It's sickening that this piece of crap Golovkin is crying his way to a huge payday he doesn't deserve.

Team Golovkin would be fools to not accept 42.5%

[Robyn Banz]

That .5 is petty AF!! Give him 43% and get TF going

[aboutfkntime]

Team Golovkin would be fools to not accept 42.5%

well, they were fools to fight Vanes lol

[hitking]

LMAO!!!!!!! This one is better than the 164.5 catchweight for the Chavez Jr fight. If GGG wasn’t such a clown, I’d be blasting Canelo right now.

[pedrito]

Pretty much agree with everyone in this thread... no matter who you support, the offer is not going to get better. It's right in the middle of their initial positions. Seems fair.
