He also offered to fight Pascal in Canada, which as we now know, would have been an impossibility anyway.
No, Barrera turned down the fight. If he or his promoter felt the fight would make money in the US, they could've outbid Beterbiev's promoter and...
I think Barrera would have had to use his post-122 style at 122. Otherwise it's too easy to see him getting rocked with counters for most of the...
Ask Marquez how that worked. He fought John to get out of his contract and Top Rank and a willing press portrayed him as an idiot businessman who...
Arum wanted nothing to do with a Garcia-Gamboa fight when they were both at 126 and Garcia was firmly aligned with Top Rank. The only reason the...
They can only "take advantage of the situation" to the extent that HBO and Main Events allow them to. You know what's better than fighting for 3...

Then Kovalev will have to give up his belt. And Kovalev, HBO, and Main Events would deserve as much opprobrium as Haymon and Quillin received for...
Haymon was willing to put up 5-10 million for Stevenson-Kovalev. He did put up 3.1 for a far less significant Dirrell-DeGale fight. Even...
Beterbiev will take the Kovalev fight when he becomes the mandatory after this fight and the purse bid guarantees both he and Kovalev far more...
So Beterbiev should just be left waiting around to get his eliminator because Duva and Barrera didn't have their **** together?
Bradley wide on points. If Bradley was a Haymon fighter I think he'd be getting torn to bits for the quality of opponent in his last 3 fights.
Hmmm, I think a month and a half ago would count as the recent past, and that may be something you'd look into before calling an opponent out for...
This was literally less than a month and a half ago: http://espn.go.com/blog/dan-rafael/post/_/id/13692/sullivan-barrera-calling-out-jean-pascal
