This was well publicised a few months back:
If Davis would have made 5m then Farmer would have made at least 3ms too which would be 37% of the split. Even if Farmer only gets 35% he gets more. Realistic should be 35-40 cause Tank is the bigger name but Farmer is more than a run off the mill mandatory challenger who gets 30% too, they talked so much shyt, the anticipation for this would be bigger than a usual Tank fight, Farmer too even though not a star fighter is a more well known name than most if not all of Davis' opponents so far.
So I base on those numbers that the offer must have been higher.
Do I think Farmer should be feeilng himself so much to say a 2m offer is low balling to him? Hell no. I didn't say Farmer would be perfect or anything just that at he same time Davis, or in the other situation Charlo aren't entitled to have their "opponents" bend their way, cut out the bullshyt about where you never gonna fight, where the other fighter has to come to fight you just follow the most lucrative offer god damn it.
"Why is it always outta your fingers that PBC must cross the street N it’s never the other way around?"
Because in the recent situations I saw it looks like it would have been both easier and more lucrative for the PBC fighter to cross street than the other way around. Also because they are the ones claiming they are free agents and their own bosses who are not tied down. We are not stupid, we know they are valuable assets of FOX (or Showtime although it looks like they are on their way out), we know it's not that simple so why don't just say you can't cross over if you can't? And if you can why prohibit yourself from doing so and demanding the other to come to you?
In case they can work together like ESPN and PBC with co-PPVs I don't call for them to cross street. For example if Bud vs Spence would have to happen somewhere I think it's reasonable for Arum to let Crawford fight on FOX rather than Spence on ESPN. They will most likely do a co-PPV though if it happens so they both get a slice. Now PBC and DAZN can't do that they have no avenue to work together. Still they have to solve it somehow if we want to see fights between the best of DAZN and PBC right? So the only logical way to decide is that the one who offers a more lucrative deal gets to host it imo.
Like he didn’t play a big part in that by getting his ass whooped by a late replacement in the first place
