Sam soliman ends up on espn2...!!

The $175k was way off the mark as most of us already knew :yep

 

No it's not.:hi:

 

No. He's right. Soliman is getting $175,000










and a whole lot farkking more on top :happy

 

:deal

 

Don't talk to me about being UN-Australian. Sam has taken all you backslappers for a ride but I'm not getting on board because i got more common sense to know exactly WTF is going on.

Answer this Mr Einstein. If Sam has knocked back all these LUCRATIVE offers coming in from every corner of the globe (Andy Lee, Anthony Mundine, Matthew Macklin and Martin Murray), in order to fight the winner of GGG v Geale, as he was quoted saying. Then why is it that he has done a flip flop and is now fighting bum Taylor because apparently he was offered more money?

The Truth is Soliman is a fraud and i hope Taylor fcks him up real good but i wont be holding my breath waiting. Taylor is not the same fighter anymore. Soliman does not want the big fights as he claims, he wants the most risk free fights that are paying the most amount of money, he is a boxing prostitute and that's going to be his legacy.


Soliman was offerd BIG money to fight Murray and knocked it back because he knows Murray will give him a spanking.

He was offered the same amount of money to fight GGG as Taylors people were offering, rather than attempt to unify the titles and back up his mouth, he chose the easy way out. One thing is 100% certian, he was not offered more money than K2 offered.

@STIFFLER

One other question bears to mind. If Soliman is confident of defeating Mundane and thinks Mundane is an easy fight, why not take 2 million to fight Mundane, after all that's what Geale was paid. Again Soliman has been exposed for the truth twisting story teller he is.

 

Well played :rofl

 

It's the truth:

The Aussie Soliman (44-11) is 40, turns 41 in November, and holds the IBF middleweight strap. Taylor, by virtue of his name, still boldface even if his skills have faded and his medical history is enough to give pause to anyone and everyone with even a minimal base of knowledge of his career, obtained a title crack against Soliman, who beat Felix Sturm

in May (UD12) to gain the strap.

Certainly, it doesn't hurt that he is advised by the most powerful man in boxing, Al Haymon, the man whose presence is felt everywhere, but whose physical presence, and interaction with the press and the public is the total opposite. (My point being, we never do get to hear from Haymon about how and why decisions get made from his end...and, I dare say, I sometimes wonder of other people get blamed for decisions and moves that come from his cell phone.)

Taylor, who turned 36 on Monday, beat JC Candelo last December (TKO7), and Raul Munoz via KO2 in his previous outing, in October 2012. He defeated Twitter giant Caleb Truax, now also a Haymon fighter,

via UD10 seven months before that, after starting a comeback with a TKO8 win over club fighter Jessie Nicklow in December 2011. The comeback came about after Taylor stepped away from the game for medical reasons, specifically the bleeding in his brain which came about from punishment taken at the hands of Arthur Abraham

in October 2009. That KO12 loss was the second straight last-round stoppage loss in a row for the Arkansan; he was stopped by Carl Froch

Soliman was near the top of the target list for Team Golovkin in a thin-picking middleweight division. After it became clear they couldn't lure Miguel Cotto or Canelo Alvarez to the table, Soliman was offered the opportunity of meeting Golovkin. It was considered, his advisor, attorney Kurt Emhoff said, but the more lucrative, and presumably, less risky scrap with Taylor spoke louder to Team Solimon. Smart and common sensical move by Emhoff--he knows Solimon has been at this since 1997, and but of course dollars make mucho sense when calculating paths to take. As he's told media, Emhoff recognizes that you hold your breath when you watch Taylor now. But, the advisor said, he feels better that JT has been seen by docs at the Mayo Clinic and the Cleveland Clinic, and an ace neurologist in Nevada.

One element of this that I couldn't figure out what the implication that I see floating around that Soliman chose more moolah for a fight which will run on ESPN, not known for their generosity in meting out purse packages, and not HBO, which isn't as cheap. I spoke to Golovkin promoter Tom Loeffler, of K2. "Solimon was one of our choices since he had the IBF title," he said, when I asked if Solimon was the first choice among Plans B, "and we made a significant offer to them, but Taylor is naturally the easier fight." And about that rumor that the offer to Solimon to fight Golovkin was inferior to the purse to meet Taylor? "I'm not at liberty to say what it was, but they matched our offer and if someone can fight Jermain Taylor instead of Triple G, they will take that route, for the same price."

Soliman fights Taylor on October 4 at Foxwoods in Connecticut.

So Soliman's pay check for fighting Taylor will be the same as he would have got for fighting Golovkin, and a whole lot more than $175,000 too I'll bet :yep

 

Soliman isn't scared to fight anyone my farkn ass hairs lol

 

That's a business win.

 

No doubt about that. Sam has earned this payday :good

 

Not only that, has put so much back into the sport, never complains about sparring up and comers, offers advice, gives his time freely and genuinely wants other younger fighters to succeed, a genuine good guy :good:good

 

:deal

 

I sincerely hope Jermain Taylors people demand rigorous drug testing for this fight.
