    There's nobody. Everybody is spread out through PBC, Top Rank, Frank, Hearn, ect. Don't bother with that guy, he don't know.

      Short notice or not , They did 7k on 2 Weeks notice against non-name opponent that no one wanted to see and I think it still broke The stubhub gate record. Yeah what a failure are you for real and he still gets the rematch $ you claim he lost out on with a higher % then originally agreed upon , chalk that up as a huge L for Gennady I guess

      You think it’s sad that a boxer and his team decided to market themselves and be embraced by the largest boxing fanbase because he offers a fan friendly style . A fanbase That supports l. Are you f.ucking for real. I wasn’t aware he was claiming to be Mexican and forgot his roots , my bad I guess that robe he walks in with is a Sinaloa specialty( did you get all up in your feeling when Mayweather walked out with a sombrero) . Hating on a f.ighter because he decided to market himself outside of the 5000 Kazak boxing fans in the States and become a draw , what a dummy

      I think it’s sad when P4P talent can’t draw flies To sh.it and if they’re lucky have some support in their hometown and have the personality of cardboard and no one outside of the hatdcores care if they fight. , why knock a guy trying to build his brand. I think Broner acts like a f.ucking c.oon who goes out his way to be a modern day minstrel show character, but at least he markets himself and get people outside of boxing interested in his fights. And suprise suprise he one of the biggest draws in the sport

      Outside of Canelo who is Vegas catering too. In the last 3 years with the exception of Canelo what active boxers sold more PPVs in the States . In the last 3 years what fighters have sold more tickets then Gennady. In the last 3 years how many fighters get higher ratings then Gennady

      He’s near the top of the list for all those questions but I guess you’re right he’s not a draw
      All I'm saying is that Golovkin has fought in California in four headlining fights and Loeffler/K2 are still so unsure of his drawing ability that they still don't run the full Forum.

      Golovkin was finally to the point that they could charge full price tickets in New York, but he's 6 headline fights into his run in that market, lol.

      Keep deflecting all you want, for a guy with basically 6 years of build on TV, Golovkin has disappointed.

          Matchroom can provide him Andrade and Jacobs for unifications. Or if Billy Joe Saunders beats Andrade, Hearn amd him are pally anyway.

            They can take Individual fighters. Why are you twits somehow thinking just because one promoters fighter signs to do fights on a certain network, that all the fighters for that promoter automatically get a shot? Stop being dumb already.

              GGG on his own isn't worth very much, but vs Canelo, he's worth a fortune. The best thing for GGG is to stay with HBO and pursue a third fight with Canelo regardless of the result of the second fight. And potentially even a fourth fight at some point if they end up tied 1-1-1.
              You must like torture if you wanna see 4 fights from these two? Are you kidding? What does it prove other than to line their pockets?

                HBO deals with promoters. What promoters out there without a deal can give HBO fighters?

                    The BJS fight was booked for the forum. What, you expect GGG v Vanes to sell it out in 3 weeks? He also fought Wade & Monroe there & both were sell-outs. Hadn't fought at the Stub Hub in 4 years while selling out Madison Square multiple times, O2 & T-Mobile. Sheesh, that's one high standard!

                      Who said I wanted to see it? All I said was that it was the right business move, which you seem to agree with. Why do you want to argue with me when we're in agreement?
