    The split is right.
    Kovalev understands this and has my respect for not pulling a GGG and overpricing so the fight don't happen.

    Kovalev a G!

    I think you're confused on how this works. The promoters put up how much money they're willing to spend on the purse. They don't choose how the purse is split. They don't care if it's 90/10 , 50/50, or 1/99.

    No, you're actually confused. Main Events is probably screwing over Sergey, big time!!

    So Sergey isn't getting paid what he's worth or Andre is the bigger draw. Which is it?

    I hope that Kovalev will win and these 3 million unfair gap will be considered spent on champagne...

    Andre is the bigger draw, shoulda been closer, Main Events screwing Sergey over.

    What's your definition of a draw? RNS lost money on every Ward fight and he can barely sell out half the Oracle.

    These guaranteed purses should have been the other way around, this is plain messed up.
    But at the end I'm happy the fight got made.

    I'm happy the fight got made too, and that's kind of false. He actually used to come very close to selling out the Oracle.

    Sergey couldn't put 30% of butts in seats when he fought in Vegas.
