Actually Loeffler did a very good job to promote GGG. Fighting 2 times and possible for a 3rd time the cash cow of boxing ain't "lack of quality".
Are you saying that K2 has handled GGG’s career marvellously, because Universum did such a bad job of it?

Is that the foundation for your entire argument, really?

At this point, just come out and say you are flat out bias. You've been destroyed multiple times on this, and you still don't want to admit it. Then you point out the most biased resume account and think it's legit.

I can't tell if you're dumb or seriously dumb.

On the previous page I posted some articles from a few years ago. Even before purses were discussed, fighters were just not wanting to fight GGG.

Sturm, N’Dam, Pirog (unfortunately got injured), Geale and a few others. . they’re listed in the articles. There’s probably plenty more from the years 2014-15.

TBF, it could have been better. But he’s done well. 2 mega PPV fights. Canelo needed GGG to get over 1m buys just as much.

Knowing that how much GGG was avoided by the other previous champions, fighting two times with Canelo is pretty damn good. It's like Maidana hit the jackpot 2 times vs FMJ. And yes Canelo needed GGG too.

I don’t need behind the scenes details, all I simply require is confirmation that Loeffler tried to make bouts by submitting financial offers to GGG’s peers.

Going down the mandatory challenger route and expecting the various governing bodies to handle the situation is clearly not the same as Tom Loeffler submitting financial offers to GGG’s peers.

Imagine if Eddie Hearn pretended that he was doing his upmost to make a bout between Joshua and Wilder, by solely going down the route of getting Mauricio Sulaimán to deal with things?

The whole forum would be in a fûckîng uproar!

In those articles, purses weren’t even mentioned. Fighters were saying no to GGG full stop, before any money was discussed. Also GGG was mandatory to Sturm, purse bids would have been ordered no? They knew it was high risk and low reward.

Ultimately though, no one can actually prove that Tom Loeffler even attempted to make fights against the majority of GGG’s big name peers by submitting financial offers?

I really don’t know why people are even pretending that what I’ve written is untrue, since no one can prove otherwise.

If GGG’s career would have been handled by the likes of Al Haymon, Eddie Hearn, Oscar De La Hoya or Bob Arum, do you not feel that Gennady would have engaged in many more marquee bouts?

Is such a notion so unreasonable to consider? :-?

What has Tom Loeffler achieved to be defended by GGG’s fans so passionately?

EO/Fergus didn't take his medicine for a while so he's very consistent in addressing his own version of 'factual quaestions'.

This is futile.

They can't prove he made an offer and you can't prove he didn't.

This isn't a court of law, you're not Perry Mason and negotiations between boxing managers and promoters aren't matters of public record

So, despite a complete lack of evidence, people are insisting on employing the terribly ignorant “god-of-the-gaps” fallacy to formulate an unsubstantiated assertion that Tom Loeffler submitted financial offers to GGG’s peers, which were subsequently declined purely due to “fear”?

Does that mean that we should automatically assume that any opinion based solely on “faith” must be true?
