Loma is a MASSIVE draw in comparision to Rigo who cant even get on HBO unless it's a RNS PPV telecast....and you know that



Wanting to see him get paid fairly? He just accepted 120k to defend his belt in the co-main of a PPV....apparently that was enough for him to accept to face Flores, but whenever Loma's name is brought up, it's always much more $$$ needed from TR in order for Loma to face Rigo.



And also, you didn't say you want to see him paid fairly anyways, you said "anything less than 400k is a lowball offer". How could someone who just got paid 120k say anything less than 400k is a low ball offer, when his own promoter only gave him 120k?



He's not a draw, has no fanbase, and doesn't receive high paydays in general....if he was offered 350k, he needs to jump bc Loma doesn't need him

Stop it fam. I'm not talkin about this anymore. Do what you do.

 

[mr. smoke weed]

Rigbum has a right to want more money but he gotta realize that he might not get another opportunity to fight loma. If I was him I would have taken the 350k at 126 they offered a year ago

Aye dog, I'd call you pimp, but u pulled ur first ass on the last car of a train. You disrespect boxing by calling Rigo Rigobum. Step ya game up, you been mad disrespectful to the forum recently.

 

[mr. smoke weed]

@Newzz didnt SOG get base $6.5mm PPV card that sold 120k??? Does that make him less of a draw?

Rigbum based on his low paydays and lack of fanbase..skill wise he p4p #2

 

[The axe murderer]

Yall reminded me though:


@hyperman25 @Don Ibiza Ibrahimovic ?





But seriously, where is that dude hiding


There are tons of fights he could be taking right now...that Loma quit job he did brought his career to an immediate stop sign

Loma bushed him in the matrix and is now stuck in the train station limbo that he can't get out of

Are you hinting that Rigo is a draw in real life?

 

[H.I.M.]

I see Joseph Parker just signed a fight with Hughie Fury...muthafukka had ZERO pressure on him to make a fight with the other free title holder in the division...even though WBO guidelines, like WBC guidelines, allow for unification fights to come before mandatories

Same idiots condoning or glossing over this blatant duck...naturally fell for the "Dillian Whyte" smokescreen...when Hearn knows damn well the only fight Wilder is permitted to take outside of Stiverne, is a unification.

Genius move by Hearn though. Raises the profile of one of his fighters, while creating a new shield around Joshua, so Hearn can safely milk his cashcow.

People asking why Wilder can't fight a borderline domestic level fighter...but not asking why Hearn isn't trying to make the much bigger and more important unification fight of Wilder/Joshua

Especially while Wlad is waffling on a rematch...

If Wilder was as bad and terrible as people claimed...shouldn't the other title holders be jumping at the oppurtunity for that easy money and knock his ass out the picture while adding another title to their collection? But not only are they NOT...they're getting a complete pass for it. Typical.

 

[1970s HeRon Flow]

Bro u get paid based on what numbers u do. Rigbum need to humble himself and take short money like danny did against amir con, if he win he gone make that bread back in a rematch

By ur argument then Ward didn't earn that 6.5milly right? Specially when the first fight didn't do well either

Rns was dumb enough to overpay


Bob Arum is the goat promoter. Rigbum not getting a penny more than he worth

I'm not a Rigo Fan but he's a champ and if they want him to fight Loma he should get payed, I feel the same way about Siri, he's more then earned it through out the years and the fights he has performed in, if they want him to fight their next "Star" Loma then they need to break bread

I can understand that viewpoint buy if I was bob I would only offer Edgar a nikka worth. And rigbum not bringing in a ton of fans. Right now I would offer him 350k take it or leave it. But if he moves up to 126 and beat a name or 2 then we can talk

They already made that fight in early spring or so just thry had to reschedule it cause of Fury's alleged injury, Parker can't pull out now.

And my problem with the situation is Wilder calling out anyone but we never actually hear that Wilder's side makes an offer to any of these guys just that he calls them out in the media.

I read on mzltiple places that Hearn talked with tge WBC prez and Stiverne can wait a little. I also read that whoever Wilder fights next it probably won't be Stiverne. We will see.

Joshua made it clear that if it's possible he would keep both of his belts this is why they got an exemption from the IBF. I highly doubt that after a possible Wlad fight they would give him another exemption and let him fight Wilder too.

Besides that it makes evety sense in the world for Hearn and for Wilder too. Gaining bigger exposure in the UK can't be wrong for Wilder especially if he gets 4 fukking millions against Whyte. Then, when Joshua won't be busy anymore (next year I recall) their fight will be even bigger and they both gonna get more money.
It's simple as 1X1. Wilder should take the Whyte fight.

Fury has been injured for 2 months. 2 months.

The fight was already off until recently. And he's had 2 months to make a fight with Wilder.

Wilder was the only party making any serious attempts at negotiations

“I want that fight as soon as possible. In July,” Wilder said to the Tuscaloosa News. “I’m looking to come back in July so hopefully we can get a date set in July to get this unification started. It’s almost like a tournament a little bit. It makes it interesting for the fans.

“That’s the next step. I hope my team and (Parker’s) team can come together and we can agree on some terms and lets get this unification going already.”

According to Wilder's co-manager, the negotiations with Parker's team is ongoing and they hope to reach an agreement for a date in July or August.

“I think everybody wants unification,” said Jay Deas, Wilder’s co-manager and trainer. “It’s always a thing where unification trumps a mandatory. We’re aiming for Joseph Parker. We would love to fight Joseph Parker in July or August. We’ll go wherever we have to go. I think Joseph Parker wants the same thing.

“I think negotiations are ongoing, and I think everybody involved wants it to happen. It’s really a matter of finding the right network and finding the right venue and finding the right date and making sure all that matches up. Because TV has a schedule, of course arenas are filled up with every conceivable sport and musical act, so it’s not easy to find a date, especially a Saturday. That has to fit and it has to be within the right time frame because it’s no good if we find out that Vegas has an opening eight months from now. That’s no good. We have to find the right combination of those things.”

Wilder's Manager: We're Aiming For Parker Unification in Summer - Boxing News

WBC champion Deontay Wilder has humiliated Hughie Fury and called out Joseph Parker to initiate an immediate unification bout.

There's no shortage of candidates putting their hands up and the latest is Wilder who has long spoken of his desire to fight Parker with both the WBC and WBO titles on the line.

He believes that should happen immediately now that Fury has been sidelined. But Wilder first aimed a decent left-hook at the big Brit's injury claim before turning his attention to Parker.

"I'm going to cut straight to the chase ... I've heard about this Hughie Fury bagging out two weeks before a fight. Come on man, I know they have a history of doing stuff, family history at that. Oh yeah, I heard about the injury. They said it was a lack of self confidence and that sounds about right," Wilder said in a video on his Twitter account.

"But anyway, moving on ... Joseph Parker if you are really serious about fighting somebody, if you are really serious about unifying the division, if you are really serious about giving the fans what they want to see, then what other person is available than me?

"I've got the WBC, you've got the WBO, let's make it happen. I'm available right now.

"Forget these other scrubs, that's up in the division coming up. Right now you're talking about another champion versus another champion. Let's make a unification bout and at the end of the year we'll get a mega fight against the winner of Klitschko and Joshua."

Deontay Wilder humiliates Hughie Fury and calls out Joseph Parker for unification bout

Joseph Parker has his mind set on Britain, but he still has American Deontay Wilder ringing in his ears.

Parker's immediate fighting future appears to be in the UK where he and his handlers want to cash in on the blossoming heavyweight boxing scene.

A delayed mandatory challenge from Hughie Fury for the WBO title or a tangle with pumped up British cruiserweight Tony Bellew loom as the most likely options.

Parker signalled at the weekend he was on his way, tweeting: "See you soon Great Britain".

But all the time WBC champion Wilder keeps calling out Parker, intensifying his challenge on Monday (NZ time) with the help of his co-manager and promoter with the hope of a unification bout in New York.

Wilder, keen to see one dominant champion of the splintered division, envisages the winner going on to fight Anthony Joshua, the big Brit who owns the WBA and IBF belts.

"I want that fight as soon as possible. In July," Wilder told tuscaloosanews.com of taking on Parker.

"I'm looking to come back in July so hopefully we can get a date set in July to get this unification started. It's almost like a tournament a little bit. It makes it interesting for the fans.

"That's the next step. I hope my team and [Parker's] team can come together and we can agree on some terms and lets get this unification going already."

Deontay Wilder adamant UK-bound Joseph Parker is the fight he wants

Even Parker's own homecountry media took note on how hard Wilder's team was working to try to get the fight made and were basically being jerked around and ignored.

I read on mzltiple places that Hearn talked with tge WBC prez and Stiverne can wait a little.

Sulaiman spoke on Wilder this week. And he's said nothing about Wilder-Whyte...but talked about how he wanted to see a unification with Joshua. So why not make that fight instead of a pointless sideshow fight with Whyte?

And being that IBF also has the "unification over mandatories" exemption as well...a unification can be made with Wilder if they really wanted the fight. THEY DON'T.

Besides that it makes evety sense in the world for Hearn and for Wilder too. Gaining bigger exposure in the UK can't be wrong for Wilder especially if he gets 4 fukking millions against Whyte. Then, when Joshua won't be busy anymore (next year I recall) their fight will be even bigger and they both gonna get more money.
It's simple as 1X1. Wilder should take the Whyte fight.

The fight is a goddamn waste of time and a sideshow...i don't give a damn about their money. I ain't touching or spending that shyt. I just want the best in the ring with the best on my TV screen and not continual mismatches like Wilder-Whyte...that's a fight you take only if Joshua isn't available, and as of right now, he is....but actually lobbying for Wilder-Whyte as if it's a worthwhile matchup. When the best fight in the division still has a window availability.

Wilder-Joshua doesn't even need no further promo...it sells itself. It was already highly in demand right after Klitschko-Joshua (and before)...no need to waste time with additional BS fights...but they WILL...and the fans and media will continue to provide cover.

 

[reservoirdogs]

Still a good line up but wish him and Wlodarczyk wouldn't be there. They are not in pair with the other competitors and they take away places from better fighters who alos applied

Huck is done he barely even won a round against Briedis and before that he got KTFO by GLowacki I don't know why they put him in this.
the first minus point for WBSS

Are you hinting that Rigo is a draw in real life?

God no I may be drunk right now but I wasn't then
