    K2 has Usyk and Ryan Martin. Usyk just signed with DAZN for a couple fights and Ryan Martin is in the WBSS (and he's about to lose his first fight)

    Let's talk realistic options.

      Good for him. HBO is a sinking ship and only GGG and Canelo are the only 2 guiding it. Jacobs might jump if either guy jumps too..

        You asked, I answered. And Usyk isn't K2's only fighter. There's plenty of free quality fighters out there and rest assured, Golden boy fighters will also stay fighting on HBO bruh. Let me ask now that I know what's happening here......what do you have against HBO? Floyd got you thinking ignorant over them? Be honest. It's not like they haven't pretty much dominated boxing broadcasting for the last 30 years and just barely started falling off.

          No there aren't a lot of free quality fighters out there. They elected not to but Kovalev's next fight. This will be GGG's last fight on his deal. They haven't built any future fighters on their network. From the looks of it HBO will be 2 Canelo PPV's a year and Superfly. All the top fighters are elsewhere and HBO has built no stars to take the place of the ones leaving.

            I live in NC. If my power goes out saturday due to this hurricane, I'll hate Canelo for the rest of my life due to him getting caught cheating and this not taking place on May 5th

              If GGG loses, it won't look good for his career...

                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.

                If deflecting means sh.itting on your entire theory that Golovkin isn’t a draw with facts then yeah I’m deflecting

                Just wondering since Golovkin is such a disappointment what fighters would you consider to be a success as far building their brand in the last 5 years in the US market

                  "Other options" include lying in a gutter with a bottle of vodka and drinking himself into a coma

                    HBO would've made the Derevchenko fight ppv. But GGG and his team refused to fight him.

                      I'll ask again.
