Trinidad To Get $15 Million For Hopkins Rematch

[Drunk Punch]

A pointless pointless fight.

[ИATAS]

How much is hopkins going to make? I cant understand why hopkins would take this fight unless it's at least $10 million

[Sin City]

Trinidad's on crack if he thinks he'll get that much. Bernard sure as hell would want probably twice that much. And I don't see how this useless fight would demand that much for either guy. ****** fight, that I doubt happens...

Tito will not get any $15mill... no one would pay for this fight...

Thats what they said about the jones fight. second highest buyrate of 2008. trinidad is guaranteed at least 10 million per fight. i can see him getting 15.

It's not a matter of if.. they ARE giving it to him if he fights Nard.

[Sin City]

the fight it pointless except for the fighters getting extra cash.. Hopkins already beat a prime Trinidad so what happens now doesn't prove anything.

[FLY TY]

Hopkins is contradicting himself by making this fight, he said he didn't want to fight Jones again because of how badly he lost to Calzaghe, then now he's making a fight against the guy who got dominated by Jones prior to the Calzaghe fight and lost to Hopkins himself in one sided fashion 8 years ago. What a pointless fight.

i agree. totally unneccessary, uninteresting fight. this is when you know its time for hopkins to hang 'em up......when he starts chasing these kind of fights. i'd hate to see him fight dawson, since i like both fighters, but if hopkins insists of fighting for ****'s sake, even if the fight makes no sense at all, he might as well fight dawson. this match-up is garbage......

[cottothechamp]

im not watching this fight. Too oldies going at it for money. Nothing to see here move on.

[-X-]

This is the ******est junk i have ever seen, Hopkins ko 5.

Actually it's Jones who said he does not want to face Roy.

Besides, how is Hopkins doing contradicting himself? He has not even bothered to comment on this yet... Only Don King is allegedly saying Hopkins was interested, which well.... you know.. lol

Read the article mate, rather than coming out with random stories.

Damn, Jones doesn't want to face Roy? he's not the only one like that, Hopkins said he doesen't want any of Bernard. Also Mayweather is ducking Floyd.

Trinidad didn't ask for anything, Don King Offered $15 Mill.
The fight would actually sell a lot of PPV's. Jones vs Trinidad sold 500,000 PPV buys and there was 15,000 Fans in attendance. Hopkins/Trinidad II will be a mega fight and a big event and will be heavily promoted.

Wrong. In the original article in the Puerto Rican newspaper, it says that around 15Mills is the amount that Trinidad Sr. believes that Tito should get for this fight.
