    Reminds me of when Haymon had control over the music businsess back in the day, it was only after the intervention of Ralph Macchio that those poor artists have were released from their Haymon 'advisory' contracts as the documentary excerpt below illustrates.

    I think you owe our transatlantic cousins an apology. Levels of oestrogen in the US water supply have risen to such epic levels that the UN recently concluded that there were no men left in the country, just women of various degrees of feminine aspect. As such, Wilder, Ortiz and Kownacki are likely amongst the leading female boxers in their divisions and could ohe day challenge the likes of Braekus or Taylor for a meaningful title.

    de Morhalle, yeah you are right the Wilder number was 1,5mil. But there is different info on Ortiz ones. Some say it was 350k, some say it could go to 500k. Anyway i doubt Kownacki will earn more than that.
    So he reject the deal of his life.

    It’s a ****ing joke. Wilder turns his nose up at $100mil for 3 fights to fight for peanuts and now Ortiz turns $5mil plus for a shot at Joshua! Duck season.

    I would hope that you are aware that money is not the only prize in prize fighting.

    :lol: The Polesbury doughboy should've returned to his country of birth so he could compete on the much tougher Euro Level circuit. It's like sending your children to ballet lessons to prepare them for armed combat on the front line.

    Agreed. Andy Ruiz Jr will take the fight with AJ.
