      I think he should have, that would mean the mandatory gets exactly what they deserve to get.

        That is cheap. That’s basically an 86-14 purse split when SD could just say no and force 65-35 upon him.

          You don't seem to have an understanding of the fundamental concepts of leverage as it pertains to business.

                Because SD basically has the power to strip Canelo and force a 50/50 split with GGG if he wants.

                That means he’s worth way more than $5 million.

                  He can force a 50/50 split with lil g but not Canelo, why all these unknowkn guys suddenly think they deserve a 10 million payday?

                      Alvarez (and pro boxing) doesn't exist without A,B,C and D level opponents.
                      The purse bid was fair, the diva should have taken it.
