    puga bscene says his purse was set to be 180k. double that is 360k. plus brush my hair boys 30k is 390k.

    so around 230k which is 80k more than his original purse. so where are these talks of double the original purse that would reach 400k?

    i'm surprised that escobedo and his camp agreed on this low amount of money to proceed to fight. it's either that GBP/HBO has pressured him with some threats to fight a now LMW broner or he was offered other things aside from money like another HBO big card appearance in the future.

    I think I messed up my numbers too btw....Looking at more sources I think Escobedo's probably getting more money then I thought he was orriginally. But my main point still stands. THat unless there's a glove size penalty then whatever money he's getting is basically scarafice money.

    hey it seems like they kept raising the purse. havent seen anything negotiated since this morning but escos purse raised. they are smart to milk the hayman for everything they can. illuminati has unlimited funds. better milk it for all you can.

    Maybe they pushed their luck and bluffed when the "higher offers" were on the table. Maybe they had second thoughts, but then had to accept less. Remember, they started out saying that even a million bucks couldn't buy their "intergrity and principles". That would be funny.

    I imagine Oscar and Richard Schaefer gave them a reality check.

    Maybe Oscar and Schaefer put out false numbers trying to get a back lash against Escabedo? Look a the ****s here deriding him for not taking a larger sum.

    sounds like threats of not being able to fight on their card again if he won't ***** himself to fight broner who all the while has been rehydrating like crazy and is now a LMW.

    He is clearly being paid to be an opponent for Broner to look good against, hope he upsets Broner though.

    Bigger glove idea would also be good, I read this happened when Pacquaio was over weight.

    yeah i havent heard anything about bigger gloves. id make him do it i remember pac had to when he came in overweight. but then again pac didnt have hayman illuminati ties so he didnt have the same negotiating power back then.
