Actually, see the new thread I just made. DiBella said his offer was $600,000, with Froch getting to keep the UK tv money in addition to that,...
What we know about this fight based on quotes from DiBella and Hennessy over the last several days: 1. Hennessy claims to have offered Taylor...
Bute is going to fight the guy that lost a vacant title to Denis Inkin who just lost in his first defense to Karoly Balzsay? Is this a joke?
The poll should be asking about the split, not the total amount since we don't know how much Taylor would be getting paid. I think 60/40 in...
This is a good assessment and reflects my thoughts on the situation. People can sit here and bicker about whose ducking who and throw...
I completely understand the nature of a mandatory title defense and what would happen were Froch to withdraw. But like you said, if this goes...
You are still putting the burden on Taylor, when a similar argument could be made for Froch. As TKO pointed out, neither fighter seems willing...
This seems like a very simplistic view of the situation. DiBella can't just offer whatever he wants - he's got to have funding coming from...
Is he in the ring with Miranda? Then yes. :D
Exact same thing everyone was saying before the Taylor fight; didn't make a bit of difference. Since Calzaghe, they've all been "must-wins" for...
Is he a reliable source? AFAIK that was simply a PR issued by the Miranda camp, trying to talk themselves into a fight. Until I hear from...
What you're saying involves a lot of speculation about figures we don't have... mainly what Showtime's budget is for the fight.
This works both ways - if Froch wants to fight the best in the division, he has Taylor as his primary option right now. If things don't work out...
You can talk about viewership all you want, but from the sounds of it, ITV doesn't have the budget for this fight that it would need to get off...
Is $1 million too much? Depends on what's left over for Taylor. If it's much less than another mil, then yeah, it's too much.
