Fat Boy Dan - DAZN "very difficult to close the deal" with GGG

[Eddy Current]

Golovkin will end up fighting a couple of bums and then retiring. I'm talking Tommy Karpency level opposition (nothing against Karpency).

[MeanestNiceGuy]

Man, fuck GGG.

You are just a guy who loves to hate on GGG for no reason. Why would he fight a couple of bums? There is neither money nor glory in that. Your post makes no sense and you have no idea who GGG will fight next. Why don't you just STFU and wait to see who his next opponent is instead of making up negative ***** in advance?

I don't believe a word Fat Dan says.

Remember last year - "i have inside information from Team Fury that the Wilder fight is definitely not happening" - fight gets announced just after..

This is all you need to know about Fat Dan.

Extremely strong chatter than Mayweather-Cotto 2 is imminent.

WOW I guess Arum and ESPN as right about GGG

He stands up for himself and what he thinks he is worth. He drives a hard bargain and doesn't just take any offer if he doesn't think it is a good one. This true of most big name boxers. Has this now become a new GGG crime for the GGG haters to attack? Fuc Arum. When was he ever fair or easy to deal with? Why are so many boxers in legal battles with Arum trying to leave him? GGG probably did himself a favor turning Arum's offer down.

No I agree 100% and posted the same in the thread when Arum first made this statement. In this ERA in which he has PBC and DAZN pursing him hard, GGG has every damn right to hold out for the best deal possible and try to raise the stakes as high as possible. He is the TALENT, people tune in to watch HIM FIGHT! I'm always on the fighters side in negotiations, in this sport they BETTER get the most money possible every time they step into the ring

Most fans just want fighters to do what they're told by a promoter because that is what most of us have to do at a job we hate. Fighters are Freelancers, they have the damn right to pick when they work and how much they're willing to work for and fans do need to respect that at least

It's weird when guys decide to take what Rafael says as gospel. Sure, things have been taking awhile, but it doesn't appear anyone has a full grasp of what's going on behind the scenes. Too many conflicting reports if all these guys have inside information.

[turnedup]

He should take his time, and make sure the promises are all in writing. It's his last contract and he's already been gamed by the sport for a long time.

"Word in Vegas is that Mayweather vs Cotto II is imminent". Mayweather vs Pacquiao gets made a few weeks later.
