Turning down a Mora fight on HBO to fight Adama off TV is a cowardly thing.

Is that what you're saying in a roundabout way????

I'm almost 100% certain that HBO would allow their favored fighter to go across the street to showtime for a one-off fight and easy win. Loeffer is on record saying that the networks would not be an issue.
And, if you think that HBO is going to take a flyer on Golovkin taking on his toughest fight in his pro career, on a rival network, after spending 4 years trying to convince their audience to pay up for Golovkin, you're also kidding yourself

Originally posted by Motorcity Cobra View PostIf that's the case why isn't Jacobs team asking for an extension?
My guess, as i've seemed to always guess, is that Daniel Jacobs wants the fight, he and his camp (trainer/Haymon/DiBella) are ready for the fight, and the folks on his side of the table (Espinoza/Barclays Center/DiBella/Haymon) are more than prepared to do what they can to get their guy the best deal possible and best chance to win the actual fight.

Originally posted by _Maxi View PostYou are saying Jacobs will accept 25%? I thought you all said he should vacate if that happened.
If DiBella wins the bid, topping K2 by even a dollar, Jacobs gets 25% of the bid amount plus a share on any upside revenues.

LOL in a bind?
All it does is force Jacobs to vacate when he doesn't get more than he's worth. K2 will put up a bid, then Dibella or w/e puppet Haymon wants to use will put up a lower one and people will say K2 was trying to screw them over the whole time.
Ohhhh goodness... this is still spinned against them somehow

The fight has already been mandated, and Golovkin walking away from the fight will result in him having to give up one of his precious belts. Beyond that, though Jacobs is a good fighter in his own right, him having that wba belt keeps his name in the conversation (which would be greatly lessened were he to not have the belt).
Barclays Center is waiting to host the fight, and Stephen Espinoza is more than ready to put money behind bringing the fight to Showtime.
K2 taking the step to delay the bid makes it pretty clear that they don't see it being all that obvious that they'd win a bid on the open market.
