Leo Santa Cruz Fighting a former Sparring Partner?

Leo seems like a likeable guy but I think Haymon isn't helping his career. He's fighting a former sparring partner :pat:

i find it hella funny dude gettin major props for taking this fight with a formering sparring parnter but of course they was hating danny for fighting similar fight with salka a few month ago. , santa cruz is not what iw ould call elite fighter but hes pretty fun to watch Tell us who is giving him props. Because I sure as hell haven't seen anyone giving leo props. Leo and danny are both getting hate for this. I haven't seen as many leo fans trying to justify this unlike Danny's fans trying to.

Danny Garcia got $700K for the Salka fight, which was 50K less. Amazing how LSC gets $750K for fighting a sparring partner, AND in the undercards. DG, at least, fulfilled some promotional duties, which was understandable because he's the main card. But this guy doesn't have to do anything and he gets 50K more. Amazing.

Leo is gonna wait some more years for Rigo's legs to slow down.

LSC need to step up and fight rigo

Santa Cruz cherry picked this fight. He could of told Haymon to find him someone better. When someone with a pulse fights Santa Cruz, he's going to demand a lot more money than he deserves to get paid.

Any more wonder why this sport is fvcked up? Surely, if he's asked to fight a legit opponent he would want millions of dollars right off the bat. Which network would be crazy enough to throw such amounts? Very same reason why Guerrero and Porter rejected Thurman, as an example among many.

IMO They chose it common and the dive isn't neccessairly because this guy will get KTFO anyways...

Santa would want $1.5 to fight Rigo considering he's making almost a milly to fight a lame like this guy he's fighting tonight. I hope Santa Cruz doesn't pull a Mikey Garcia when it's time to fight Rigondeaux.

That's as much as Rigo made against Donaire. Crazy. Santa would want $1.5 to fight Rigo considering he's making almost a milly to fight a lame like this guy he's fighting tonight.

Facing former and future sparring partners is completely common. Wladimir has faced a ton of guys that were or would be his sparring partners for instance. It happens all the time so that's not really part of the problem on this one.

And he's making $750k. Al is that ninja!!! No wonder everybody who is advised by him don't care if they look like fools. Haymon is getting them that chicken. Sad but true. Santa is fighting a big bum and making big money. That's what it's all about baby! That's as much as Rigo made against Donaire. Crazy.

The former sparring partner thing isn't so bad. If Pac and Khan or Pac and Porter fought, it would be Pac against a former sparring partner. This guy Santa Cruz is fighting is a freaking nobody bantamweight. Sorry to be rude about it, but it's the truth.

This is unbelievable that Santa Cruz is fighting a guy who looks like he is ready to take a dive. The face off with his opponent the guy looked like he was happy to be there he even shook Santa Cruz's hand and hugged him after the stare down like thanks bro for the payday I wont dissapoint you I will make you look like a killer tonight. What a joke :puppy_dog MAYWEATHER $32 million MAIDANA $3 million UNDERCARDS PURSES Leo Santa Cruz: $750,000 Manuel Roman: $50,000 Humberto Soto: $150,000 Not a joke -- it's pathetic...

Jesus Cristo I can't wait for some change in the sport it's disgusting. Santa Cruz shouldn't be making anywhere near 750K fighting this nobody. I hope Sh1t hits the fan soon.

Pedo Santa Cruz has Al Haymon's hand up his as$ using him as a puppet
