Warren wins Katsidis-Mitchell purse bid

Meh, no surprises there. Except for how close the bid came in at.

Oh well, Katsidis is just going to have to knock another Brit out on his own doorstep. Shame it's not here though. And I really hope Katsidis get another big name after this.

 

Lets hope JMM dumps the belt before the fight starts so it can be for the full title.....Go mick :good

 

By the rules, Mick does get 80% of the purse bid, hence $400k+. I'm sure this will help suffice Michael for having to travel back to the the UK!

 

For the life of me, I can't figure out how Toowoomba lost out on this purse bid

 

Whats the deal with other fight revenue mate?

 

Mate, that's seperate negotiations as I understand. Mick as the Interim champion get's the lions share of the submitted purse.

 

there was only recycled sewage water for the buckets :tired

 

lol

 

So the deal on other revenue split needs to be agreed upon inside the next 5 days before contracts are due to be signed and dilevered to the WBC?

 

why would they send it to the wbc?

 

Only my opinion, but I doubt whether that comes into it Ash to be frank. I would think once it goes to purse that the promoter may say 'all bets off', hence the reason for having to go to purse in the purse bid, i.e. failed negotiations.

To hard to say mate considering I'm not involved.

 

My bad...WBO atsch

 

keep wisecracking mate.when Katsidis beats Mitchell they fully intend to host a big fight in Toowoomba.
