Basically.
Lundy got my respect for that shyt and Petrov looks like he ain't believe in himself.

Dan Rafael chat wrap 1/16:
- Will the winner of Stiverne-Wilder be Klitschko's next opponent? Possible, but he doubts it. (the winner of this fight is the opponent he wants to most see vs. Wlad)
- If Mayweather-Pacquiao is on May 2, when would Cotto-Alvarez be? Still does not think Mayweather-Pacquiao gets made, but if it does, Cotto-Alvarez would likely be in June (assuming that gets made as well). He admits that he has been on the negative side throughout all the talks regarding Mayweather-Pacquiao.
- He is pessimistic based on past negotiations as well as current info he is hearing.
- To make May 2 happen, they would realistically need to agree early February.
- Espinoza swears he is okay with Haymon taking Showtime fights and putting them on NBC. Espinoza says that Moonves was okay with fighters being on NBC and supported it. Espinoza has some credibility, it is possible Haymon could do a time buy with CBS and rumor is he could do one with Spike TV later this year.
- No one will answer how Haymon is recouping all his money he puts out to make this NBC deal. He is putting out a lot of cash and how he gets a return is unclear (the $20 million a year over 2 years is really other investors money). Haymon is brilliant, so he obviously has a plan to make this all work.
- Mayweather and Pacquiao are closer in negotiations than they ever have been.
- ODH wants to make Matthysse-Provodnikov happen. It still needs to get made though.
- Lundy missed weight, refused to try to lose any more and started to rehydrate. Petrov declined to make an agreement to have the fight go on. Sources say Lundy will be suspended by the commission.
- In the short term he thinks that Golden Boy takes a hit from the settlement with Haymon, in the long term he could be better off.
- Stiverne by KO over Wilder.
- Canelo is not bluffing when he says he is looking into other opponents besides Cotto for May 2.
- Mayweather-Cotto 2 is very possible.
- He has been very impressed with Amir Imam and he is a good prospect.
- He talked with Algieri's lawyer last night, nothing going on for an Algieri fight vs. Terrence Crawford right now.
- Monroe Jr vs. Vera? Monroe Jr. on points.
- Froch-JCC could get made before his issues with TR are settled. They could make the fight and force TR to seek a restraining order, which are very rarely given.
- He doesn't care what anyone says, the keys to making the fight are with Mayweather and between Showtime and HBO at this moment.
- Doubts that Bradley vs. Alvarez is likely for May 2. In the future it is very possible.
- Regarding the Haymon-NBC fights he was told that Guerrero is getting $2.5 million. All the purses are high compared to what they would probably receive on HBO or Showtime.
- RJJ is 46 today.
- Doubtful that Khan-Brook happens anytime soon.
- Not sure Andre Ward gets back into the ring quite as soon as April.
- Roc Nation officials tell him they never offered Broner $40 million.
- If Mayweather-Cotto were to happen, he believes it would be at a catch weight, not the full 160 lbs.
- No site announced for Garcia-Peterson, some discussion of Brooklyn.
- There is no middleweight he would favor over GGG.
- Better resume - Wilder or Joshua? Wilder.
- Possibility Quillin could face Andy Lee April 11th on the Garcia-Peterson undercard.
