how this came to be

A surprise bidder emerged in the Alycia Baumgardner-Delfine Persoon sweepstakes.

Global Combat Collective LLC claimed the promotional rights to the RING/undisputed 130-pound championship. The upstart company submitted $500,000 to outpace Matchroom Boxing ($251,800) and Filiep Tampere ($111,144) during a WBC purse bid held Friday via Zoom.

Matchroom has Baumgardner (15-1, 7 knockouts) under contract for one more fight. Tampere is the manager and regional promoter for Belgium’s Persoon.

Ten-percent ($50,000) will be set aside as a win bonus, per WBC purse bid rules. Baumgardner, The Ring champ, will receive seventy percent ($315,000) as the defending champion. Persoon (49-3, 19 KOs), No. 1 at 130, is due the remaining thirty percent ($135,000) as the mandatory challenger.

The Ring has learned that no actual talks took place between camps, despite the WBC-ordered mandatory title fight and negotiation period.

The lack of progress prompted a purse bid hearing. Matchroom and Tampere each hoped to win. They were both caught off guard by the participation of unknown Global Combat, whose listed representatives include Nelson Lopez Sr. and Sergio Rodriguez. Nelson Lopez Jr. heads Baumgardner’s management team.

so the "world's best promoter" underbid for a potential FOTY candidate for one of his alleged "stars" in America.

Matchroom could have easily threw 500k at that type of fight. At least they gon get paid much better, but that sucks for the fans. My sister wanted to go to that fight. Now I gotta hear her go off like Kanan's mom once I explain this bullshyt.

Cmon Choc you're better than this I know it.. you dont get tired of swinging pom poms in the air, d-riding and defending a network and a nikka who don't give a fukk about you??
You don't get tired of waiting 5-10 yrs for fights you wanna see??

 

[patscorpio]

Yeah a nobody with only 10 fights under his belt is gonna give Crawford problems

Lets not get carried away here, this is a obvious cherry pick and if Crawford loses he should retire.

Sick of these hyped up Euro fighters.

I hope you learned a lesson

Choc can't adjust to the times..he still turns to showtime anticipating mauro with his proud boys haircut and cockeyed mares calling the action for Danny Garcia vs jobber in a non title match but no one is a champion
