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

[DougalDylan]

i) Savannah Marshall is the WBO middleweight champion.so she is a champion.
ii) Its a two fight deal so they can do one in the USA one in the UK (where the money is for womens boxing so Marshall is the A side)
iii) If Shields wants a deal for just the UK she can have one.
iv) If Shields is just a great A side she should be making Marshall the offer for Triller or Showtime ....

I hear Hearn wants to put in a rematch clause. Even though his fighter is neither the champion nor the A-side.

She picked up that belt after Shields dropped it. So she never won it in the ring.

It's similar to how Tyson Fury is the real heavyweight champion. Not Joshua.

So WIlder was never a champion as he never beat Vitali .. just picked it up of the trash can Stiverene then ... same logic.

I like Fury but he was in no state to defend that belt and Shields is picking up belts in talent sparse divisions.

Wilder was never the real champion, no.

It was Klitschko then Fury.

What they mean is oh look its an Eddie Hearn fighter so we expect some other fighters promoter to pay more for our fighter than her own promoter has ever been willing to pay her yet she should be seen as some sort of A side.

If Hearn offers to pay her 1 whole Dollar more than Shields own ppl been paying her then it should be seen as a good deal.

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

LOL you and your anti Hearn propaganda got boring a long time ago. He ain't doing anything other promoters are trying to do. If anything he is doing it better and giving us better fights than other promoters and that's what really gets your goat.

Just thought i'd point out your hypocrisy like i said i would.

You never said this about Wilder at the time when he had won the WBC title which was vacant in the fight beforehand with Stiverne/Arreola. No, you said it was the "Most important title" Haha.

You also said Wilder should get half the money because "The money was in the US" even though Wilder wasn't getting shlt, but AJ was making 10's of millions back home. Well, the money is made in the UK with this fight. But wait, your hypocrisy and contradictions are showing again.

But you're going to tell me some mad nonsense that i'll laugh at like i always do to justify your bullshlt...

When it comes to threats, Americans want an extreme payday. Even if they get it most of the time, they still turn round and ask for more. They don't really want to fight. It's just more of the same.

The WBC is the most important belt, that hasn't changed. But that doesn't mean that Wilder was the real heavyweight champion. There is a lineage of "beating the man who beat the man" from Klitschko to Fury that no one can deny.

And Wilder to this day is still a bigger name in the US than Joshua. That hasn't changed.

Savannah Marshall isn't a big star in the UK or anywhere yet. Why even even try to draw a parallel?
