Fighters who sold out for a payday?

Discussion in 'World Boxing Forum' started by Primal Pledge, Jul 30, 2016.


  1. Fighters who sold themselves and who had no chance of winning a fight for a big pay day.

    I think andre tune up ward is one, this guy knows full well. this will be his last fight against Kovalev after the krusher ruins him and he never hear from him again

    The dustbin men and el chapo opponents he's been facing up to lead up is just to squeeze those last few cents for his retirement fund.

    Berto is another waste of space who was happy to sell his ass like a 60 dollar bangkok ***** to floyd.

    Amir Khan obviously another shamless sell out fraud is out on the street corners looking for a pimp with the biggest wallet to sell his ass to

    Anyone else?

    Amir Khan.

    He's open to embarrassing himself to the highest bidder,regardless of the sport or situation.

    I don't know if I would necessarrily call it selling out and look down on a fighter for taking on a huge challenge.
    If you are going to go down that route then you would have to include all journeymen, weak mandatories and tune up fights (Bizier/Dan v Brook, a lot of Golovkin's opponents, Ward/Eubank Jr's recent opponents, etc). In fact, considering 50/50 fights rarely get made in boxing then pretty much most fights ever could be labbelled as one of the participants selling out.
