    Anyone else disgusted by his pathetic purse for being a headline fight. Rios got 925k, hell Vargas and novikov got over 100k each. It seems like arum really screwed this guy and hbo too.

    You find something to complain about every weekend. Stop watching boxing or quit your whining.

    Maybe he should join WWE. His DDT is pretty good.

    That's all the turd deserves, I'd doc 10% of his purse for being so disgraceful and totally earning a DQ.

    Anyone know the breakdown of percentages a fighter has to pay out of his purse? I'm hoping he was able to take home atleast 15k. Not bad for two months of work but absolutely disgraceful in the context.

    there's no middle class income in boxing, you go from making chickenscratch to millions in a couple fights then back down

    I love Argentine fighters, but he earn his purse with that performance. I thought he would put up more of a fight, and not be quite so dirty. But yeah its still bull****, he should have been paid more.

    Ya man the undercard fighters made 4x what he did, it's absurd. I can't even comprehend how that even happens. He needs a new manager.

    For a HBO main event though?

    Maybe he got some of the Argentinian TV money
