I have senior pip blocked, are most of his posts in this thread just him massaging Canelo's nutsack?

He's ok, except when it comes to Alvarez. Otherwise he's a more than decent poster.

An opinion from a colleague:

Basically Sanchez is an ungrateful sod. He's a mediocre coach at best who got lucky with GGG. How he doesn't see this tells you a lot about the man. Money aside, he just doesn't cut it as a top trainer. Wouldn't even get into the top 20 today.

As for the fee, it can be whatever the fighter is willing to pay. 10% is fine until the purses get stratospheric. By that time the danger levels for the boxer can increase dramatically too.

So 10% for a fight where you get knocked out cold, rushed to a hospital for a scan is just plain unethical. You're counting money in the bank whilst your fighter could be on life support.

If it was me in that situation, then I'd be happy to pay 10% if we win or just a flat fee if we don't.

The trainers need some incentive too, don't they?

Golovkin is not blind or deaf. He sees advice from experts and trainers including in Russian-language media suggesting him to replace Sanchez.

He was willing to stay if Sanchez agrees to the money he actually deserves. Instead, Sanchez went nuts basically retiring himself.

Crybaby stuff from Sanchez. Glad GGG stayed out of the fray and just moved forward.
