Yall know why Andrade is discussing this now?


Because I interjected into the convo from a week ago, like I told yall I was gonna do yesterday, and made the person from Team Lara start speaking again. According to them, Andrade's being offered "more than his last fight".....which is cool on the surface, until you remember Andrade's team LOST the purse bid and Andrade only made around $100k-$110k to face Culcay.


Like I told that dude, if we don't know how much is being offered...and you're only saying more than his last fight...who's to say you guys arent sending a lowball offer, in the hopes Andrade doesn't accept it, and then will run with the whole "Lara offered the fight, Andrade refused" tactic














So breh, if you know how much Andrade is turning DOWN, then I could understand, but "more than his last fight" and saying 300k is A-Side money, leads me to believe they are offering him :trash: $$$ in order to run with the fact Andrade turned it down.



Remember, Andrade was offered $550k to face Charlo, so less than 300k is kind of insulting for a Championship fight vs Lara matching up 2 of the top 5 JMWs today:manny:








Lara vs Andrade will never be a "big fight" imo. It's a hardcore fan's matchup where it will be skill vs skill. The casuals need not apply for this fight, bc they will hate it:heh:



Valdez has a title, just headlined a PPV against a very good opp, and is the A side. He made 300k vs Marriaga, they fought for the WBO.....just sayin

Exactly.


If Valdez can get 300k to face Marriaga, then Lara vs Andrade should be even more money being that a fight between the both of them is a bigger fight within Boxing.


Andrade was offered 550k to face Charlo.....how you getting hypothetically offered LESS than 300k to face Lara when you'd be Lara's best and most well known opponent in 3 years?

If Andrade isn't known, then what is Valdez and Marriaga?



That's my point.



Valdez would've been fighting off TV as well if Arum didn't force a PPV for him.



And I KNOW a Pacquiao stan aint talking about "couldn't even get a network to air his last fight":dead:

According to Andrade... Who claims there hasn't even been talks.. That in itself is hilarious.. What kinda shytty as promoter does he have that cant even get in contact with Al to negotiate??

According to whom have there been negotiations?:jbhmm:


Since you wanna interject, provide some receipts of proof, because NOBODY has said what was offered to Andrade.............but yet, he "priced himself out"?:comeon:
