By overpaying all of its fighters? By doing this, regular fighters get paid too well and over demand more than actual worth, thus a lot of fights are not made cuz of this. Who agrees? Btw. I think Danny Garcia should be stripped of his belt.
I have no problem fighters getting paid millions upon millions. I do have a problem with fighters getting paid millions upon millions when they don't deserve it. Garcia wanting to fight Eggington and get million dollar payday is what is ruining this sport. That guy is an absolute joke. Blatantly ducked Berto too.
Yeah. Haymon has dropped the ball by putting on a mediocre product. Free TV channels will be reluctant to show boxing for another 20 years
The artificially high purses only serve to make them ask for an insane amount more to face top opponents. Look at Danny jacobs for example. I'm for boxers getting paid properly, but it should be based on their own popularity, or drawing power. Also, when guys say I need to get paid XXX amount to face the MW boogie man in 3G, conversely, if they are going to face some gimme fighter, their purse should reflect that as well. Danny Garcia alone should have been paid a tenth of what he got to face Salka.
