Collazo-Clottey purse bid!
A purse bid was held today in the IBF Office for the IBF welterweight eliminator for #1 between Luis Collazo and Joshua Clottey. Top Rank was the sole bidder with a bid of $35,500.
wtf? you mean they got to split a $35,500 purse? talk about getting underpaid. w/e for a check and a title bout.
Clottey vs Collazo ... where and when?
well its gotta be either November 10th or November 23rd
by process of elimination.
dunno though .. there's been no real follow up .. guess we'll have to wait and see.
Nope, the bid is the amount that will be split among the fighters. I don't know what the IBF's rule is for an interim title, but if it involves a champ, he gets 75% of the purse bid and the challenger gets 25%. This might be a 50-50 thing since neither is a champ.
theres no way they gonna split 35k.
this fight will probably be on a undercard of a payper view fight and they gonna split that amount, theres no chance of that.
i beleive thats the bid for the promotional rights.
the boxers purse has to be ironed out in the contract.
i wonder why collazo's promoter Don King didn't bid.
