[j.razor]

By facing a guy GGG beat two years ago?

No, now we got the TWO fighters that beat Triple L.

Much respect for Canelo. Big step in the right direction. This is probably one of the best if not the best matchup at 160 right now. Taking on the most proven non-GGG middleweight in the division. Should be a dynamite matchup.

[ralex]

For fighting top rated guys in his division? Isn’t that what champions are supposed to do? Good fight tho...

Yes but they don’t all do that.

[j.razor]

lol, they want GGG even older for the third one

Triple L is irrelevant.

[j.razor]

Hallelujah. Jacobs is not a stiff, the ginger bread will be decapitated.

I got Nelo in a close fight.

They say everybody who isn't black is afraid of black fighters.

Well at least Billy Ho Sounders Came across as coward when he demanded 5 million to fight DJ when He has never made 2 mill a fight and knew he was not worth that not even close.

[j.razor]

Definitely wouldn't say that. Damn good fight though no doubt. A super fight is AJ vs Fury or AJ vs Wilder or Canelo vs GGG that we just saw.

Jacobs isn't a name like that, not even close. In fact, he can't sell nor does he do good ratings.

Wait, Triple L has 97k fans and this fight right here is the 2 that beat Triple L. This is a super fight for us who respect boxing.

both Canelo and Jacobs whooped lil g so this makes sense. hopefully golovkin vs charlo happens now.

Noel is asking what you think of a 60/40 offer to Wilder and you responded with a quote of Frank Warren talking about Fury's offer.

To busy showing off to the rest of your herd with smart arsed shit talk about GGG to concentrate on anything else, perhaps?

no kafkod, Noel is referring to a conversation of yesterday

this conversation.....

it looks like you could be right.....

this is from the other thread, in response to a claim that Hearn made Wilder a GOOD offer to fight Joshua

I asked for proof, but then later I saw this vid on seckback.....

ok, so there it is.....





1) it looks like earl-hickey could be right, maybe Hearn has decided to make that fight

2) the problem for Hearn is..... nonchalantly offering Wilder 40% NOW, kinda puts that 15mil flat-fee in context

that was a flat-out duck

but like I always said..... they know they will have to fight Wilder sometime, it will happen when they are ready

I need to hear from Finkel/Warren before I do a full 180 and admit that they have stopped ducking Wilder..... but, it looks that way

Wilder is not worth more than 40%

neither is Fury

neither of them could sell out Wembley, so they will not get a better offer than 40%..... if this latest offer/stunt from Hearn is proven legitimate either by Finkel/Warren, or by their silence (which is good enough for me)..... then the only possible justification would be if they have decided to proceed with the rematch, with the winner facing Joshua next

40% IS a good offer, it is the best offer they could reasonably expect

that is HUGE money, for a B-side

if Wilder/Fury really want that fight, they will accept 40%

I expect to hear a confirmation from Warren/Finkel, or silence

I suspect they will confirm it

see what happens when you try to be a smartass

and NO, don't get all excited about Hearn's offer.....

or has Fast-Eddie been telling porkies..... AGAIN ??

"Certainly not, we’ve never had that offer,” he told The Telegraph..... “No offer’s been sent to me. Hearn sent an offer to Tyson over the weekend but it certainly was not 60/40 and it was quite a derisory offer for Tyson..... “So that’s it. We haven’t even responded to it it was so derisory." ~ Frank Warren

[aboutfkntime]

I like your style. Ok listen from 1min 30 seconds. Again as you pointed out this is Hearn but both Tyson and Wilder could come out and say Hearn is lying. Have you noticed they have both been Quiet. You are convinced he doesn’t want the fight so unless either fighter comes out and agrees you will never see it any other way but AJ is ducking

https://********/NYzlzGkoUJ8

their silence would have been enough proof for me

but yea, they did not stay silent

"Certainly not, we’ve never had that offer,” he told The Telegraph..... “No offer’s been sent to me.
