I also want to make this about Golovkin because we need more Canelo threads

[TonyGe]

Would be nice to get some details from the GGG Promotions with DAZN. As far as cash goes, consistent with his earnings, he got a $50mil deal to be honored in cash and the rest “equity.” On top of that GGG would ideally be given a paycut from the $50mil. If his contract had Canelo Alvarez in it then highly likely there’s something in the GBP DAZN contract similar

They might give Golovkin more equity to compensate. With Canelo it's all cash so there is no room to maneuver.

DAZN said Canelo could fight Oscar De La ****ing Hoya and he ducked him.

“for fighting whoever he wants” That’s exactly the problem chief. Canelo ain’t getting to fight whoever he wants.

Are there reports that GGG is planning to sue, or is this thread hypothetical?

why do reports matter? why do facts matter? its all a hoax right?

[ShaneMosleySr]

It’s speculation.

It’s speculation.

Ok. I wouldn’t see why GGG would even want to sue. Canelo has his issues now, so GGG should use the opportunity to make some power moves at DAZN.

[BodyBagz]

Um, I’m going with no.

Please, if you would defend GGG suing DAZN over his ridiculous contract that clearly benefits him and no one else, post here so I can question you.

If DAZN was run by legit children with mental deficiencies, I would agree.

Otherwise, fu ck em. Pay the man.

He sent them a letter last year threatening to sue for not living up to their contractual obligations by getting him the Canelo fight.

Yet Oscar promised DAZN a third Canelo-GGG go-round anyway -- which has hurt a bunch of people: It led to DAZN signing GGG by guaranteeing him a shot at Canelo they cannot deliver presently. DAZN is in breach of the GGG contract as as result.

And GGG's lawyers have now sent DAZN a letter about the violation, demanding a title fight, so their guy has a belt to dangle before Canelo in 2020.

The only reason he didn't sue after the Dervy fight is because he chose to go another route. I don't think it's speculation. I think it's inevitable

[Lance98]

ggg is a puss, dazn is a useless company. I would watch and laugh at their downfall.

[buddyr]

i don't even like Cripple G and I would defend him. DAZN is a bs service with bs fights.
