Does Interbox lowball fighters?

Here's an opportunity (for anyone) to prove or at least logically argue that Interbox does lowball fighters.

Info from an article at the Scene;

*******************
Pavlik wasn't happy with his two fight package, which guaranteed him $50,000 for Cunningham and $1.35 million for a Bute showdown in November. In several interviews, he voiced his displeasure over the amount of money offered to Kessler - because he considers himself to be a "bigger name" than the Danish superstar.

The Scene, through various indviduals, was able to confirm that Kessler's guarantee for Bute was only $750,000 - a far cry from the reported $3.5 million dollar guarantee. Besides the 750K, Kessler would have also received a fee from Showtime and 100% of the money from Danish television. Kessler, who turned the offer down, would have made a lucrative amount of money from Danish television, but that has nothing to do with Pavlik's guarantee - although it does play a role in Kessler receiving a smaller number as Bute would have received 0% of the Danish TV money.

Sartison (Dec 10): $400K offered, fought a can instead

Kessler (Jul 11): $750K + Showtime money + all of Danish PPV revenues offered, said it was a "1 Danish Krone" offer
(no articles on counteroffers)

Rehab Pavlik (Jul 11): $1.35M offered, fought his partying habits instead


...who necks?

 

Fair enough. I think Froch would earn upwards of $1M for sure if he fought Bute. Hopefully they release those terms to the public if the fight is signed.

I'm curious to see if Ward will fight Anthony Dirrell in Oakland in the spring, or wait until the summer to fight Kessler.

From Ward's perspective, pretty sure the difference in purses between a home Dirrell fight and an away fight vs Kessler or Bute would be enormous.

 

Arum couldn't believe Pavlik pulled out of a fight that got him a 1.35M guarantee.

First offer to Johnson was indeed low.

If Froch gets over a 1M for a Bute fight, will the 'trend' be broken?

Merry xmas Bat. :smoke

 

Hey, I said "over 1M". Which could be 2 or 3 for all we know, right? :good

Froch put his WBC belt at stake in a major SMW fight recently and lost. How much did he get for that?

Now that he has no belt, can't you see him taking a multi million 50/50 deal to fight Bute once or even twice?

 

Good to know, thanks!

With the August 11 date booked at the PEPS stadium in Québec City... I hope that Interbox would agree to do Nottingham in the spring, and suggest Québec City for the summer fight.

Fingers crossed. Go make millions, guys. :smoke
