Who does he fight on ESPN doe? You pretty much got 1 or 2 fights for him max. And you'd probably need him to move up. Unless Bob, a confirmed bean counter, is going to throw out some sexy numbers at GGG & Tommy L I think it has virtually no chance of happening.
I think PBC has a better chance of landing GGG than Bob does in fact. Not that I think PBC has a great chance either.
The obvious pick is DAZN cuz DAZN has all 4 MW belts now (I'm assuming Jacobs is all but confirmed to be at DAZN to, but maybe he won't & if he's not then that could lower DAZN's chances on getting GGG too) so GGG who might be 37 by the time he fights again doesn't have long in this game & if he wants to make some sh^t happen & maybe more importantly for his ego get a third shot at Canelo he's going with DAZN. So even if Jacobs doesn't end up with DAZN I think GGG needs to go to DAZN to maximize his best options in this game in his remaining years.Comment

I don't even think Top Rank is the best 3rd option. If GGG doesn't sign outright with DAZN (the obvious choice) or PBC (the clear second best choice) I think the 3rd best option would be to bounce between platforms for each fight so that he can always take the best fight for the best money.Comment

All that does not dispute anything I said. No one said Sergei D didn't want the fight. The problem is the short time span and the money. The short time span wasn't good for GGG and the money would not have been good for Sergei D.
Demetrius Andrade understandably is much more interested at the moment in fighting Gennady Golovkin. Artie Pelullo, Andrade’s co-promoter, made it clear, though
So Sergei D refused to take the fight with Demetrious Andrade because it would have only paid him 250k but you haters expect us to pretend that Sergei D would have taken that kind of money to fight GGG on short notice. Bull*****. Sergei D wanted 400k for the Andrade fight and he would have wanted more for the GGG fight but with only $1 million dollars in HBO's budget that means he would have needed to be paid equal to GGG for the fight to be made. He didn't earn that.
And for what....Sergei D lost to and got dropped by someone who lost to and got dropped by GGG.
Regarding Charlo, I think it comes down to a couple factors. #1. He's signed with PBC and it looks like he's the only guy they have for GGG to fight in the middleweight division. Almost every other champion or top guy is somewhere else and most of those guys are on DAZN. 2. He's been promoted like *****. His next fight is going to be his first time as a headliner and its only because he won a coin toss with his brother. But if he fights GGG he's going to want money like he's a draw. We won't see until December 22nd (that's the date of his next fight I believe) if he is or not.
Its a shame. I think Charlo deserves a shot at the big dogs but he's not going to get it unless he fights Jacobs next but I think Jacobs got him shook.Comment
