Gilberto Mendoza "Jacobs handlers have sent an offer - the numbers - to Loffler"

[Eastcoast]

You think in Danny Jacobs house there are more GGG fans or more Jacobs fans? If they are honest to themselves.. i think its a tossup.

GGG. Jacobs might have alot of fans, but do they really support him? They haven't shown it.


If Golovkin fought in the Barclay Center vs Tureano Johnson, he'd likely sell it out. Jacobs/Quillin did less buys than Golovkin/Geale. MSG is only a half-hour from the Barclay Center, your basically pulling from the same customer pool.

I went to see both GGG vs Lemeiux and Jacobs vs quillin and GGG def has more fans. Barclays was like half empty

[Scipio2009]

Jacobs should be willing to accept whatever he's given and hope team GGG pities him enough to accept. Wouldn't want this fight to go to purse bid because it's likely he makes a lot less and still has to fight on HBO and MSG.

Stay calm and hope you boy Jacobs doesn't forget his balls at home.

If the offer comes back bull****, Golovkin and his camp face a bid that they are unlikely to win (Jacobs and his camp have already seemed to make it clear that they are already looking at what the financials would look like from their preferred package).

put some respek on his name

[Triple Genius]

It's funny, no matter if he's a side b side sunny side Triple G is supposed to take whatever is given to him

[Chollo Vista]

You GGG fans are unbearable

You guys say "He challenged GGG on twitter. What's twitter, doe. blah blah blah. Why don't he send an offer, he's ducking GGG. 18 months doe. Everybody scared of GGG. Everybody makes bidness decisions. No one send GGG the contract. Decubas only talks on twitter, but don't send an offer, etc, etc".

We finally gets someone that does everything you guys been b1tching about for the last 4 years and get this? You still complain.

You accused Lara of not sending an offer and only using twitter.

You accused Sergio Martinez and Felix Sturm of refusing to negotiation.

BJS refused to negotiate

Eubank Jr wouldn't sign the contract

You accused Daniel Jacobs of ducking, 18 month's doe, etc.

You accused Spiderman of not negotiating, but to send a contract.

The minute someone does all the above, you guys still b1tch and complain and find a new reason to b1tch about something new.

Last I checked, everybody was running scared of GGG. The entire MW division so your excuse was he had to fight a WW. Here we have a MW who says "sign the contract" and you fcuks are still at it.

You say everyone is always talking "bidness" when it comes to GGG, but the minute GGG gets a contract put in front of him, you same guys want to make sure GGG gets the best compensation whatsoever. I'm like "Wait, I thought it wasn't about the bidness, doe".

Not even in Brooklyn.

It depends what part of Brooklyn. In Brownsville, East New York, Crown Heights and Bedford Stuyvesant (African American/Jamaican sections) it would be Jacobs.

In Brighton Beach, Coney Island, Bensonhurst and Sheepshead Bay (Where there's a lot of Eastern Europeans) it would be Golovkin.

[Scipio2009]

Just stop with this nonsense.

• Golovkin agreed to fight in the UK vs Brook, Saunders, and Eubank. Jacobs insisted on Saunders coming to Brooklyn.
• Golovkin agreed to fight Barker for free, Eddie Hearn told that story.
• Golovkin agreed to concede the weight advantage and go up to 168 for Froch, Chavez, Kessler, and Edwin Rodriguez.
• Golovkin said he'd have fought Martinez in Argentina instead of Murray.

Last I checked, Jacobs is the challenger and not a marketable draw by any comparison. Why the fuck wouldn't he be conceding.


All shit talking aside though, I hope the hell this fight gets announced soon.

Draw or no draw, Barclays Center/Showtime have more money backing Daniel Jacobs than K2 seems able to get behind Golovkin for a NYC fight. Which is the reality of the situation.

Daniel Jacobs's camp is sitting on a likely significant site from from Barclays Center/'Brooklyn Boxing' and a significant licensing fee from Showtime.

Alvarez getting hurt had definitely helped raise folk's spirits, but note how quiet everything was when all K2 was looking at was their November date as the live fight for the Kovalev-Ward replay.

don't let the spin play you for a fool

purse bids

[Scipio2009]

That's great. But what needs to happen is a negotiation. Not some challenger giving offers to the champ. Jacobs isn't a bigger star than GGG. (Worldwide).

Kell Brook isn't a "bigger star" than Golovkin (worldwide), but the fact that his camp were the ones bringing the money gave them the right to dictate near all of the terms (though not able to get Brook a few pounds on the scale to make things a bit more competitive).

In prizefighting, money control everything and it'd seemed as if, before Alvarez got knicked with the injury, K2 was looking at a situation where, again, they weren't the ones controlling the money.

You don't know the money situation for either side.
