I'd be uspet if I was Maskaev's team too. First he had a big money fight with Vitali called off due to Peter's team stalling about taking millions of dollars for doing nothing but sitting on their behinds. Then Duva and King bring in a contract with a 55-45 money split? How about showing some respect to the champion with the belt. 55-45 may as well be an even 50/50 split of money...a 60-40 split at least wouldn't be rejected outright.
If Peter's crew want the lion's share of the money, win the belt first.
