It's probably becoming a bit difficult to make 154, so he saw the opportunity to fight Golovkin and jumped at it. He's gonna be fighting on the HBO network at MSG against a fighter with a lot of hype behind him. If he wins, he winds up stealing some of the shine from the other top MWs.

he's prolly getting right around six figures. . Golovkin probably gettig 200ish.

At most Rosario getting 200k, and Golovkin about 350-400.

He's making at least twice of what he'd make taking any other fight right now. . . He doesn't have to win this fight to get another six figure payday on HBO; all he has to do is show some heart, and make the best fight for the fans.

I don't see him standing up to GGG"s punches for more than 5 rounds, though.

THis is an opportunity that a boxer like Rosario cannot refuse. .

Im kinda disappointed GGG is taking on a JMW but the truth is Rosado is a pretty damn big JMW and he doesn't look smaller than GGG in those pics at all. But maybe that's just me, Im bad with pictures.
