I dont know why people are asking for the figures of the deal, Arum doesnt mention anything about numbers, hes declining on the principle of giving up Rios for Mares.
Arum is the one that killed these fights, as usual.

The Rios counter offer was a way out of the Mares offer. Nothing more. Nothing less. It may seem fair on the surface but GBP knew it would be rejected when they made it. Rios is 'on hold'. The whole fucking boxing world knows that except a few posters here.
