LMAO.. Ok, so Green can just walk away and both men lose the BIGGEST possible payday for either. Both guys will walk away from this fight with their own National interests providing the major element of profits. Green deserves gate and PPV in Oz. Bhop deserves US and Uzbekistan PPVs. Thats all.
Big mistake,Danny Boy.Home field advantage,a nice 40% payday and a shot of beating the old man.You will regret your greed.
same and i would love to see Danny KO him but Hopkins has aged far better than Roy will study Dannys style and easily UD him.i want to see him come out for the pre fight build up.expect Hopkins to spit on the Australian flag,push and shove Danny pre-fight and at the weigh in.hes not a guy who wants the world to love him.. hope left jab is right andthis fight happens and Danny causes another boilover.
G'day stiffler I'm not saying the fight will definately go ahead but it isn't dead in the water yet thats for sure. Danny is trying everything to get this fight done but he's not going to get bent over in negotiations . Danny sent them a counter offer just yesterday and they have 10 days to get back to him so we'll just have to wait and see. All i can say is Danny is desperate to get this fight and he isn't refusing to fight because of 500-600k being taken off his purse trust me. I know everyone is saying why doesn't Danny take 40% but the fact is bhop wants the 2.2 mil from HBO as well as a 50/50 split of the aussie PPV's and gate:fire It sure as hell aint a 60/40 split....Danny would have to sell a lot of Green machine shirts to make up the diffrence:yep
The same question could be asked to Hopkins, the only difference being is that this is significantly more money than his last bout was worth. If this fight doesnt happen and both fighters go their own ways, who do you see thats more likely to be earning more in their next fight? B-Hop would have to take on a Klitchko to get close to the kind of money Green is offering him. Chad Dawson isn't going to bring it, and if he did, it'd result in B-Hop getting schooled.
That's my feelings too. Green knows he has BHop and Mundine as good money fights and not much after that. Other options would not pay half of what he can make with these two. If Green was being offered 40% of all the money involved in the fight I think he would do it, no problem. Anyway, all negotiations with BHop are lenghty and dificult, it could take another few months till it gets settled. Both side know it is their best option.
Yes danny,good call you idiot. Beating niekerk and the argie bus driver dominguez,getting slapped by mundine and loosing to beyer twice puts you into a position to ask for a 50/50 split with hopkins??? And dont even mention poor old roy who you wouldve been watching yourself on tv in the 1990s. Your victory over him in 122 secs has taken you far past reality. Remember where you came from and who you are and forget about the 60/40 split.
