@Mr. Leonidas

You were the one who asked Kell Brook about his favorite cereal?

I was just listening Pound for Pound podcast, Brook was the guest, they read twitter questions and this one was from Dark Prince

Floyd made more vs Pacquiao than he did vs anyone else breh....he made $180 million vs Pacquiao.



There's no other person that's coming down the pipeline that will make more money than Joshua vs Wilder for Joshua

so it was 180 million he made not 300 million..lol

 

[Newzz]

so it was 180 million he made not 300 million..lol

It's been well documented that Floyd was projected to make upwards of $300 mil after every penny was counted against McGregor. And I'm sure if Floyd came back again, they'd pay him even more money.

My overall point is that if you're Joshua and you're making $10-30 mil per fight without Wilder, you don't really need to fight Wilder. Wilder needs the fight tho, since he made minimum $2.1 mil against Ortiz. And the reality is Wilder won't get paid more than that unless he fights Joshua. So Joshua will keep getting paid more and more each time out but Wilder will prob keep getting less.

He got more than that bruh. Recall his guarantee was $100 mil. After all ALL income sources were accounted for, he made at least $220 mil

Source: Mayweather's May haul at least $220M

This is what trips me out brehs.

Breh, you're saying Wilder "needs the fight", but what are we really saying here? Off course he needs the fight...he's thought of as the 2nd best HW today, and he wants to fight the #1 to prove who's really better

You're saying it as if he "just wants a payday"....but breh, who else can he fight that matters at HW?

He just dropped 3x & KOd Luis Ortiz who was hyped as arguably the most skilled HW today...who else is left BUT Joshua breh?

So now, its not just "a payday" that he's chasing...its also things like history, reputation, legend, pride that comes along with becoming Undisputed RING/WBA/WBC/IBF/WBO Heavyweight Champion Of The World, 41-0 (40 KOs), and the #1 fighter in the sport today, bc if he beats Joshua, nobody will draw like Wilder period


You act like he's trying to cash out


There's no other threats but Joshua...he could make multi millions fighting bums for the rest of his career until he's 50-0 (10 more fights vs Breazeale level opps is an easy $20 million) and retire with one of the longest HW reigns ever and with a perfect record......but he's not


He's willing to go high risk/high reward....and you all are clowning him for chasing a legacy defining fight vs Anthony Joshua as "just wanting a payday"


There's no division he can move up or down too. It's really fight Joshua or fight C level opps forreal now

Too late here for me already to look it up now

Somewhere in the last 30 minutes, the last few minutes of the Brook interview part I think

 

[HeruDat1]

His initials are AB but they really should be CD since that's the only level fighter he's able to beat

damn breh

Mayweather gym mostly picked Jessie

cosign all of this.

Do nikkas wanna play who can have the most financially rewarding career or who's the best fukking heavyweight out right now?

and lets be honest, its not like we're getting a bunch of Night of the Heavyweight type cards where you can actually build up opponents for Wilder. So random fringe contenders will get title shots in fights nobody really wanna see since no momentum ever gets built up with these inactive ass nikkas.

Srisaket Sor Rungvisai Honored With MVP Award in Thailand

Srisaket Sor Rungvisai Honored With MVP Award in Thailand

By Tor Chittinand

WBC super flyweight champion Srisaket Sor Rungvisai was named the Most Valuable Player (MVP) of the year at the 12th Siamkeela (Siam Sport) Awards.

The 31-year-old boxer beat golfer Ariya Jutanugarn and badminton star Ratchanok Intanon for the prestigious award. He received 300,000 baht in prize money (9,561 USD).

The WBC champion, known in Thailand as Srisaket Nakornloung Promotion, retained the title with a majority decision against Mexico's Juan Francisco Estrada at the Los Angeles Forum last month.

Last year, Srisaket dethroned previously unbeaten Roman Gonzalez of Nicaragua with a majority decision in March and then knocked him out in the fourth round in a rematch in September.

His coach Chokechai Pisitwutthinan also won the best coach award.

Taekwondo exponent Tawin Hanprab won the best male amateur award while golfer Atthaya Thitikul claimed the female amateur title.

Tawin, a silver medallist at the 2016 Olympics, won the gold medal in the 58kg division at the 2017 SEA Games in Malaysia.

Atthaya won the inaugural Women's Amateur Asia-Pacific championship in Singapore, just days after she turned 15 last month.

With the win, she earned a spot at last week's HSBC Women's World Championship, also in Singapore, where she finished tied for eighth.

Atthaya became the youngest ever winner in a professional golf event in July last year when she won the European Ladies Thailand Championship in Pattaya at the age of 14 years, four months and 19 days.

The following month, she took home team and individual gold medals at the SEA Games.

The Badminton Association of Thailand (BAT) was chosen as the best association.

"This year, our athletes have already won five international titles and took six runner-up spots,'' said BAT president Khunying Patama Leeswadtrakul.

The BAT's success was a result of efforts from all parties concerned and the association's good governance, she said.

"Our goal is to win a medal at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo,'' said Patama, also a member of the International Olympic Committee.

Former badminton star Preecha Sopajaree became a Hall of Famer while shuttler Amnuay Vejvitharn received the best disabled athlete award.

SCG president and CEO Rungroj Rangsiyopas received the Merit Award for his contribution to sports.
