Kovalev did not get paid anything close to 700k to fight Caparello. That fight does not hurt boxing.
The problem with your argument is that it assumes the absolute worst for the showtime fighters and the absolute best for the HBO fighters, which makes it invalid. Is GGG going to fight another Adama?

Just in general, to any fighter..... it sets a bad example for the future on the sport.
Guys are going to start demanding million dollar purses to fight gatekeepers. If this starts a trend of overpaying for bad fights..... the sport will slowly start to die

Originally posted by The Big Dunn View Postno it doesn't. Danny, as larry is pointing out, has fought an excellent resume. His purse for this in no way means his next fight will be the same type of opponent for the same money.
