@Knicksman20 what was your score card for harry simon- winky wright ?


this boy simon work rate is something else and the way he rolls then punch

I haven't scored that fight in a LONG time but from what I remember I had him beating Winky by at least 2-3 rounds. I thought Windy kinda faded a bit like he did in the Vargas fight.

]says nelo broke his jaw in a street fight in 2011 and ruined his chances of fighting in his title fight.

i remember this shyt. canelo was claiming he didn't do anything and there was a story about how some big pale,red headed that look like canel socked solis in the jaw while walking down the street.


how many red heads are walking around mexico

yeah I had simon winning.

would have liked to see him vs b-hop back then too

Yeah that would've been a good fight. Or even Joe Cal because he looks like he could carry 168 & be effective.

Keith Thurman got 1.5 million to fight Guerrero, THEN got the exact same amount (1.5 million) to fight Luis Collazo of all people in his last fight


For him to fight Porter? He's looking for 2+ million off top...I guarantee it.


There's no way possible he would take the same amount to face Porter as he would Collazo, that would just be bad business off GP



Question though...has ANY PBC fighter ever made 2 million or more in 1 fight under Haymon, outside of Floyd, and with it NOT being on PPV?

Andre Berto

*edit* not sure but it could be Andre Berto

Berto does have the highest purse of any Haymon fighter I could find on non-PPV....but it was 1.625 million vs Robert Guerrero who also got 1 million.


So, with Thurman getting 1.5 million to go against the likes of Luis Collazo, and we're talking of matching him up with a much tougher opponent, yeah...I know he's looking for 2 million - 2.5 million or more to face Porter. Factoring in the fact Porter made 1 million to face Broner, and beat him, his purse has to rise as well to probably 1.5 million.


Is the money there on Free Tv or Showtime? An almost 4 million dollar or more total purse payout for Thurman vs Porter...just for the Main Event? What about undercard fighters?


I doubt it. Fight's not happening imo

One Time is the only Big Fighter PBC has that seems to let the money be an issue

AB been getting paid less N fought Porter for his regular purse

Swift doesn't get paid crazy, took less to fight Khan...fought Matthysse without a crazy purse...took pay cuts for Salka N Paulie

LSC jus fought Mares for regular sized purse took paycuts against the jobbers

Besides Austin Trout who else from PBC turning down fights for ridiculous purses

 

[ChocolateGiddyUp]

Ionno who is worse Duva or the IBF

Fury hadn't even made it to the lockeroom before getting stripped

Duva refusing to negotiate N called for an immediate purse bid

Jus wait when Kovalevs IBF Mando is due N Haymon refuses to negotiate N calls for an immediate purse bid tho...those CAC tears will be flowing
