    Word is Garcia will receive 20 million plus for fighting Rolly.

    FFS.

    He's managed a giant troll job. No wonder he gives zero ****s. 20 million to be an Instagram troll who can't even dispatch Rolly Romero.

    They overpaid his overrated ass. To think that Bivol and Beteriev got $10 million each while this clown got $20 million.

    Garcia's mind is not in boxing anymore. I hope they don't give him another payday anywhere close to this. He's not a good investment.

    Beterbiev made 1.5M to fight Gvozdyk.

    I knew he was a loser even before yesterday when he showed up to the weigh-in w/ lip fillers. :facepalm:

    The guy is a model masquerading as a boxer. he cheated his @$$ off to get the Haney win & that's going to be his 15 mins as an actual athlete.

    It should be withheld after that abysmal showing. There should be an "earning it" stipulation added to any big money sports contract.

    Jesus Christ. Crazy money for a hype job.

    Perks of being super marketable like Anthony Joshua.

    Ryan is one of like three crossover stars in the sport. He has marketed himself effectively for a decade. He beat Haney's ass. He fought Tank. He gets huge paydays. He laid an egg, but he'll still get a couple more huge paydays before he's gone.

    Spot on. Few fighters can draw non fight fans to boxing. Ryan and AJ do.

    He cheated Haney's ass. The drug test and scales clearly demonstrated that and that's why the result is NC.

    We need to stop believing these unconfirmed rumors about Turki purses. The only confirmed purses we know are Crawford getting 2.5m for Madrimov and Bivol getting 2.7 for Beterbiev rematch. There is not even a source for any of these 10m - 20m dollar purses literally just estimations and rumors.

    He’s earned it tbf. I don’t care for Ryan as a fighter, but the guy uses 100% of his energy when it comes to promoting himself. Bivol and Beterbiev are genuine tough, no bs guys with elite talent, but that doesn’t matter in the entertainment business if no one knows who they are.

    if he gets 20 and they only got 10, that’s just insulting to the sport itself. They have given us two instant classics. Ryan stunk it up last night.

    if as a promoter you cannot get people to pay for two legit ATGs fighting for undisputed, a devastating puncher vs a speedster pure boxer, then I don’t know what to say to everyone involved with marketing this.

    Beterbiev should be REAL easy to market. Spam commercials of his highlight reel KOs, have him do some Ivan Drago voiceover while chopping wood or some **** at the end.

    This is why boxing is farked. Second rate duckers with the highest fanbase get an inordinately large percentage of the total boxing revenue, while the real quality fighters get next to nothing. Look at the history for Beterbiev and Bivol in terms of purses, extremely low, while they are levels above Jake Paul, Ryan Garcia, Canelo, Broner, Spence and other pretenders.
