    HBO needs to pay up for Chocolatito to fight Estrada. If they could pay millions to Andre Berto and Broner for fighting scrubs they can pay a top pound for pound fighter good money. Chocolatito vs Brian Viloria was a pretty good entertaing fight. Hopefully he gets his 1 million dollar request.

    He's only 112 pounds though. Nobody really gives a **** about fighters sub 147 unless you're exceptional. And nobody gives a **** about fighters sub 126 at all no matter how impressive you are.

    ^^^^^
    True stuff.


    Finito Lopez was criminally underpaid his whole career and most "boxing fans" didn't give a **** about him even though he was one of the best fighters of his era and also a very exciting fighter to watch.

    I don't think they should get paid several million each, but I believe they should get 1 million each, which is more than fair.

    Are you saying Gonzalez isn't exceptional? He's arguably one of the greatest fighters of the last 20 years.

    Make the Estrada matchup the lead undercard fight to Canelo-GGG. Then the dudes will get paid.

    First you say he has to be exceptional for people to care, now you say it doesn't matter. Make up your mind please.
