Comments Thread For: Golovkin: Abel's Father-Son Talk Is Just Him Playing Games!

[Unidentified]

Can GGG’s new trainer talk noise and help promote a fight like Sanchez?

[JLC]

I don't view trainers the same as promoters! Promoters are not with you at 4AM! Promoters don't hold mitts! Promoters don't live with you at Big Bear! You're under contract with your promoter, you can't simply walk away! I guarantee you that Terence Crawford would not treat BoMac, like GGG treated Abel Sanchez!

I agree with you that TC wouldn’t treat BoMac this way. And that’s their relationship. Good on them.

GGG had that option w Abel and he exercised it. I don’t think that’s wrong. Able didn’t bring this guy up from a youngster in his amateur days. He found him as a pro. And Golovkin felt 10 million was too much to pay his trainer. The 100m contract signed was for Golovkin to perform, not Abel. It was a nice ride for them and now it’s over.

Abel is a rat, after all his talk with Kovalev's split and now with GGG, Golovkin was a complete fighter 10 years ago, he was paying the hotel and the gym in the Big Bear, dont understand why would you ask your son to pay you 5 times as much for thesame ***** as training in your gym
I hope Gassiev gets rid of the guy

Golovkin is right , Abel Sanchez is not his father ,
Saul CANELO Alvarez is!

To play devils advocate, Sanchez got his pound of flesh in more than one 8 figure Golovkin payday, so its not like 3G dropped him the second the big money started rolling in. Could it be argued that any investment Sanchez put into 3G had already paid off handsomely for him ?

Yeah it paid off long ago. This media rant Sanchez went in is going to bite him in the ass if Golovkin decides to spill the beans on what really happened. Golovkin and Sanchez had a man to man talk about Golovkin leaving. Confirmed by both sides. According to both sides it was civil. Why didn't he call Golovkin greedy etc. to his face? He obviously didn't or both sides wouldn't have said it was a civil meeting. Sanchez is a little too slick for my liking.

You know who had a real father and son relationship. Tommy Hearns and Manny Stewart. Tommy left Manny over money. It happens. It's going to keep happening and Sanchez is delusional if he thinks differently and planned to ride Golovkin to the end.

[TonyGe]

I can't argue that! It is his money, I just can't see that happening to Emmanuel Steward, Robert Garcia, Ronnie Shields, BoMac, or Papachenko! You might move on b/c you feel your skills are stagnant, and you want change, but to leave b/c of money? Nah.

It happened to Manny. Tommy Hearns left him over money. Only Manny didn't freak out in the press and do a character assassination on him. Manny unlike Sanchez had integrity. Then Sanchez has the balls to say he lost a son.

Christ I hope not, Loma would have a job getting that tat off his stomach

[aboutfkntime]

like I said at the start..... greedy ungrateful Golovkin just had to offer Sanchez a little more

Abel said he would have accepted 4%, but 2% was a slap-in-the-face

greedy ungrateful Golovkin should have stuck with his team

[robbyheartbaby]

Ah big deal he changed trainers people will whinge about anything I just wanna see GGG fight a living body next not Steve Rolls.
