Comments Thread For: Claressa Shields Adviser: Pay Must Be Appropriate For Marshall Fight

[ShoulderRoll]

You're the one who thinks more people watch Shields than Marshall. So YOU show me those numbers with a link?

Can't back up what you said? Yeah, that's what I thought.

Can't back up what you said? Yeah, that's what I thought.

You think more people watch Clarissa at 5.00 AM than Marshall at prime time? You're the one who disputes this. So show me?

You're the one who needs to sit down, son. But continue to embarrass yourself. You don't want to break a habit of a lifetime.

Run along and get some sleep, kid.

Unless you can come back with some actual facts there's no need to continue this.

Do people actually care about her fights

It doesn’t matter. That’s the reason a lot of fighters who are not with matchroom don’t want to entertain fighting on dayzin under Hearn because he makes demands on fighter’s careers. He makes these multi fight contracts as part of the fight package and then when boxers don’t want those options he goes to ifl tv and spins up a whole “ducking” campaign to the “time to put the kettle on” casual crowd. If anything he should just be honest and say he wants fighters from other promotions to sell dayzin subscriptions in the USA for him

But if it makes them the most money why would they not want it?

The only fighters it doesn’t benefit are those who steal a win that they would never repeat and want to try and cash out in the long run with the title.

look at Andy Ruiz, he had to fight AJ again but he was paid WELL for it! Had he not been forced to rematch, who would he fight and for how much? Might take him three or four fights to earn what he got in the AJ rematch would he even be the champion then? And let’s face it the way AJ fought in the rematch Ruiz didn’t take much punishment for a lot of money!?

Im no Eddie Hearn fan boy but I see why he does it! Why would you not protect your fighters interests? And the fans benefit too, people were hype for the rematch! What would the other option be? Ruiz takes the title and makes a boring voluntary defence against some tomato can for peanuts

These clauses benefit everyone if you ask me! Yes it ties the underdog in if they win but as I have said above they benefit in the long run!
