    Paying a challenger $250k for a HW world title belt is beyond robbery. Wilder should be ashamed of himself.

    Probably among the lowest purses paid to a HW title challenger in the last 25 years. Wilder and his team take "lowballing" to a whole new level :rofl

    That payday for Molina is massive. You don't go from being paid peanuts to millions overnight for getting a title shot. The business side of the sport could care less if it's a title shot or if Molina is as skilled as Ali, it's all about name value.

    250 k is probably more money than what Molina has made in his entire career. How can this be called a robbery?

    Are you under the impression that Wilder writes up the contracts personally?

    Cool, Molina is a School Teacher for Special Needs Students in the Edinburg School District. I'm sure he's enjoying that pay day, although Don it's taking a hefty slice.
