Rjjr in his prime was the greatest boxer in history. Who was better? I'm talking in his prime.

Unless you're 60+ or something, how can you really have that?
Lol
And the Tarver fights are greatly appreciated

Most would say B-Hop and RJJ take care of GGG, as long as they don't get hit flush too many times. Toney could actually eat GGG's punches and had excellent defense.

RJJ in his prime would outpoint GGG. No way he risks a KO. I don't know that RJJ was the best boxer ever, but he's among the most athletic ever.

HBO's got some extra bread now since Canelita pulled out of his fight in December.
Chocolatito-Cuadras 2 as the UC would be

So apparently Oscar did send an offer to Loeffler, because Loeffler is saying he sent a counter offer.

Saw that too. Oscar playing the lowball game to put the blame on Golovkin's team while protecting his cash cow.

At least there are negotiations going on, which is a good thing.
I don't know if it was a lowball offer, but it was a flat fee. Loeffler wants a percentage, not flat fee.
Loeffler is quoted saying that flat fees are for fighters who are clearly B sides. Whether GGG is a better fighter is irrelevant, he is clearly the B side promotionally in this fight though, he needs to accept that.
“A flat fee for a fight is usually given to a fighter or contender who’s clearly the ‘B’ side,” Loeffler told The Times. “My offer back to [Golden Boy] was based on a percentage, just like we saw in the Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao agreement.”
GGG isn't anywhere close to Pac in terms of draw, they're going to price themselves out. Canelo only got 12 for fighting Mayweather, so I think 10 for GGG is fair.

He said he wants that rematch over the JFE one. I thought Cuadras had a chance to stop him late if he pressed the issue, so the second fight should be more entertaining if he tries to stop Chocolatito. I'd still pick Chocolatito by decision, and IMO he won the first fight.
Jacob's doesn't have a SHO deal, GGG is the only one who has a exclusivity deal with a network. Jacobs can fight on any network he wants like most if not all Haymon fighters outside of Floyd.

Figured Kell would do good #'s UK.
I don't know why him and Amir don't just do this already and both get a nice check out of it.

That 90k is from Glaser. If you believe that then you have to believe his other BS numbers.
http://www.latimes.com/la-sp-sn-box...-per-view-buys-smith-20160922-snap-story.html
So it did about 275k give or take.

Their 300k cash cow lmao. It's like I said before there's no point in protecting him. Even if he gets his *** knocked out by GGG, he'll still be bringing in these type of buyrates and he'll probably be more respected by the public too
