What is the $4 Million Rumor regarding Garcia-Mathysse?

contractual agreement. it sounds like it is not going to happen. last rumor i heard was that showtime was only going to put out 3 million. but danny wants 2 million, but matthysse since he is a hayman fighter he also wants to 2 million for the fight. so they are trying to stiff hand showtime to put out more money for the fight. don't forget that there is also the undercard 500k for a decent undercard. when it comes down to it, the money is not there. Hayman is trying to rob showtime. I know this is just a rumor and is likely false like most rumors. However, if Showtime is willing to pay $3 million, GBP should give each fighter $1.25 million. That is more money than either fighter would make against anyone else other than Mayweather and they have to prove themselves in a fight like this to get a Mayweather fight. Also, it's not like either fighter is a big draw.

4 million????????? That's crazy, they are worth 2 total. It is, but look at the market. Showtime just paid 2.5m for a 15-1 showcase. Then again, they could talk to Mares, who just made 375k vs PDL.

This fight isn't gonna happen.

4 million????????? That's crazy, they are worth 2 total.

Garcia-Matthysse and Broner-Maidana please!!!!!

if Broner got 1.5 they deserve alot more. This is exactly what I think too. Why should either Garcia or Lucas get less in a fight like that, when Broner got $1.5M against Paulie.

if Broner got 1.5 they deserve alot more.

I forgot these forums are full of attorneys, network execs and professional fighters. Hah Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android Not trying to hate on you.... Sorry if my reply was harsh...

The solution is simple. Take some of the eggs in Mayweather's basket and put them in more deserving fights like Matthysse/Garcia. Mayweather vs Canelo is a guaranteed snoozer, believe me. It won't be worth the money you'll be spending on it.

Second biggest fight in boxing IMO after $$-Nelo. I know Tim vs JMM might be second for some but not for me. Pay these mofo's!!! $3,750,000, $2 for Danny and $1,750,000 for Lucas. That sounds reasonable... But will showtime pony up the other 750,000... Seems like they are stuck on 3 million... I think showtime has made a deal with the devil in terms of GBP and al haymon... They are milking Showtime for everything Reminds me of Goodfellas U want lucas-danny F-you pay me U want Broner-maidana F-you pay me U want floyd F-you pay me

I'm on it like that as well....pay them dudes what they want!! Second biggest fight in boxing IMO after $$-Nelo. I know Tim vs JMM might be second for some but not for me. Pay these mofo's!!! Lucas shouldnt get even money with danny.. Danny is the champ so he should get the 60-40 split or something along those lines... Just like they do with purse bids..... $3,750,000, $2 for Danny and $1,750,000 for Lucas.

Haha I actually laughed at this, but 4m is ridiculous. Agreed, 4 mill is star money and neither guy is a star. Garcia is slightly beter known simply because of his fights with Khan and Morales. I reckon Garcia should take 1mil and Lucas take 800k...but since Showtime are willing to put up 3 mill, I think Garcia deserves the lion's share. 2-1 and let's get it done. If cool heads prevail, they could even make it for 1.5 mil each. Either way, I just wana see this.

Considering Broner just got a mill and a half, can't nobody hate on Danny wanting two for the Matthysse fight. It's a way bigger and highly demanded fight. Lucas is hit right now so I can't be mad at him saying he wants two aswell. I'm on it like that as well....pay them dudes what they want!!

THey should just split the 3 mil.. danny as champ gets alittle more.. I say 1.8 mil for danny----1.2 for lucas,, Sounds about fair... I knew this fight wouldnt get made...... Al haymon just trying to preserve danny because he an undefeated champ and most likely a future floyd opponent if he can keep his 0 And the fighters on the undercard get how much?

Danny wants a $4 mil tomb stone
