    Bob Arum just informed El Nuevo Dia that he offered Caballero (who doesn't sale tickets) 150K to fight Juanma. Caballero's team refused the offer and are asking for money.

    I thought Caballero said **** like he would fight Juanma in PR, he would fight Juanma for free, He would pay the sanctioning fees, blah, blah, blah....:dead

    That's still a pretty low-ball offer.

    Here's a quote from Caballero's promoter;

    "The kid comes in and asks for tickets to the fight. And they [Top Rank] agree - but why would you seat him in 203 and not ringside where the guy can be seen? Because you have no intention of getting in the ring with him because you know your guy is going to get beat. He [Arum] never made me an offer. Nobody [from Top Rank] made me an offer,"

    Here's some more quotes from Cab's promoter;

    "The best opponent that the fans want to see him fight is Caballero, and he is also the most reasonably priced. Do you think [Luevano's manager] Cameron Dunkin is going to send Luevano will to Puerto Rico for less money? Do you think Don King [Rojas' promoter] will? They haven't offered anything. The best deal that can be made is Caballero,"

    "How do you know what I want? I haven't accepted anything because no offer has been made, but maybe I will accept. But no offer has been made so what's the difference."

    "Whatever he wants the weight to be - we'll fight at. Featherweight, welterweight, it doesn't matter. We want the fight but nobody has made me an offer. I know Bob is in a difficult position because I know his fighter doesn't really want this fight and I can understand why - because he is going to get beat," Margules said.

    "I'll tell you this; based on the crowd that attended this fight, Lopez needs a career defining fight. There were 3100 people and John Duddy [who was on the undercard] used to draw 4000 by himself. He needs a career defining win and the only career defining win is Caballero - if he can beat him."

    JuanMa needs to stop with all this bull****. He's making himself and his fans look bad. He's also making his promoter look bad because they have to lie to cover up for JuanMa. This guy is not the draw that he claims he is. He's a liar and he needs to man up.

    150k is really good $ at these weights

    I dont see anywhere else where he can make that kind of money, he will lose to a C level fighter soon if he continues to fight them instead. Just take it, if hes so confident that he can beat JuanMa.
