And Canelo is on the shelf
Take a deep breath before you get to hating, family.
Canelo's team finally stops there ho activities and puts down a proper offer the same time K2 has to handle the complicated Jacobs mando situation and you idiots dancing in the streets because everything hasn't been settled in three days
Ain't no rush, Canelo ain't doing anything any time soon. The Jacobs fight is a time sensitive manner, that gets handled first. GGG-Canelo is happening next year
Breh, don't talk too much common sense, people can't handle it with GGG. GGG's team is currently negotiating with Jacobs team. That is a great fight. Legitimate #1 vs. #2 at MW (until Canelo officially moves up). Great fight in NY. Probably not PPV worthy, unless they want to throw some other stuff on it, a Chocolatito-Cuadras rematch would be great, or if they need a date for Loma put him on. Word from GGG's camp is that basically all non-financial negotiations are going great and that an official money offer hasn't been provided (sounds like HBO/K2 gonna be the ones taking the lead) that talks are positive and both sides are trying to make the fight.
The Canelo fight is a year off. There is plenty of time to make that fight. Everyone saw Canelo's team needing to say something publicly at the Smith fight and they let go that the sides had been talking (although the HBO translator mis-interpreted and said GGG's team wasn't willing to sign). Loeffler said afterwards he thought they had agreed to negotiate in private and since has been making negotiations more public. The funny part is that people act like Canelo can make GGG an offer and he is supposed to bow down and sign and say thank you. That doesn't mean Canelo's offer isn't fair, the largest purse GGG would ever receive, or what GGG will end up signing for...but isn't that what negotiations are, talks to come to an agreement? Usually when a side makes an offer you view that as your starting point of what they want to give, K2 would be fools if they didn't hit GB up and say, we see what you want to give us without being pushed, what can we get if we push you a little? That is how business is done everyday. If GGG takes the offer immediately he is Canelo's bytch, if he doesn't take it and counters back he is feeling himself too much and should be grateful for what he is offered. Sure GGG is the B-side, but there is some leverage. Canelo can't go anywhere else and get the PPV numbers that he will vs. GGG. Not saying that changes the fact GGG is the B-side, but rather he deserves to counter back and not get completely walked over. Yeah, I see the agenda.
Like you said, I am not worried about it at all. The fight is a year away, Canelo is dealing with his hand issue, GGG is trying to lock down Jacobs, and they are trying to negotiate the biggest fight in boxing. Jerry Jones has even said he really wants the fight at his stadium and will put in an aggressive bid to land the fight, so yeah, there still is a lot of stuff that needs to get figured out besides the purse split. I have full confidence the fight will get made, just give it time to play out.
