    "I have spoken to my promoter. He is going to give us 500 000$ each. And the winner will get extra 500 000$. So you won't be left without money @rigoelchacal305 Let's do it!"

    This would be a career-high purse for the winner. For the loser, it would be just another paycheck like any other (both have been earning around $500.000 for their recent fights).

    Tough fight for both guys, and a risky fight for both as well. Very much is at stake here, kind of high risk and high reward.

    Your thoughts. :cool:

    Seems like a **** offer to be honest.

    Arum needs to stop being a greedy **** and fork out the cash.

    Ya it does.. Especially considering what some of the talentless scrubs earn in this sport like Chavez for instance! However, most important thing is Lomachenko is pushing & pushing for this insane fight!

    two greatest talents in the sport deserve a lot more than merely 500k.

    Curse of the little men who lack the audience for huge paydays. Skills wise, you could add a 0 to each of the figures and it'd be a bargain.

    Love the fight, and I've got tons of respect for Rigo and Loma.

    Maybe Al should use this strategy for his fighters. Make Adrien Broner earn that money in the ring like he suppose to. Fight for your pay $$$$$
    Earn your keep.
    Prize fighter=Pride fighter.

    You know who else was feather fisted Hisashi Amagasa and Ricardo Cordoda:deal But I bet Lomachenko hits a hell of a lot harder than they do.

    500,000 for the most exciting matchup in the lower divisions. . . . . 1000,000 for the winner. Arums a ****ing cheapskate.

    rigo got 750k for the Donaire bout whilst Nonito raked in 1.32 mil.

    Purses should be cut 50/50 both getting a mill each at least guaranteed.

    Rigondeaux got at least $500,000 for his fights against no-names like Kokietgym and Amagasa. If those are the real terms of the offer it seems like Top Rank is either hurting for cash or doesn't really want this fight.
