    What a puss.... all this talk and he still won't take the shot.
    Biggest most blatant duck of the year

    Just to clarify. K2 offered Main events 300K for curtis to fight GGG?

    Hearing that K2's offer to Main Events for @Showtime_Curtis-GGG was around $300,000. Also hearing that's not going to get it done.

    300k isn't that much, really.

    I guess Stevens needs more money than that before he retires!

    If this is going to be GGG's coming out party, and a headliner, then 300K really isn't that much. Maybe they should give a counter offer so we can see if he's really outpricing himself.

    I think that's a little more than Rosado took, where Macklin made $350,000. That's still a career high payday for Stevens.

    Not bad for someone who probably should've lost an 8 round decision to Derrick Findley and biggest wins are KO's over Elvin Ayala and Saul Roman.

    Ok then. Then that's a solid and sensible business decision by
    main events. 300K for all of main events to end there $$ revenue
    train in curtis stevens when he gets splattered by GGG? Bad move
    for a lousy 300K. Stevens just headlined on a major network channel.
    He probably made that much fighting a harmless crude mexican journeyman.
    Why would he fight the baddest man in boxing for that too?
    Glad they turned it down as well. I'm not interested in GGG taking a
    backward step, and going from proksa and macklin to stevens is a huge
    step backwards. Curtis is just black, from brooklyn, and can punch out
    cans. He's not a world class guy. GGG is elite.

    Chump change for Stevenson. He had hoes that brought that to him weekly.

    That's not a good offer at all.

    that seems like a fair amount of money. $300 grand to fight for some paper title on HBO....
