    But you know that already.

    Fighters becoming champion, much less unified champion, is a dream for all of them.

    Great fighters don't hold up promoters for "enough money to build a house in Beverly Hills...nice house". They accept ALL terms and do what they're trained to do on fight night.

    YOU don't care about belts, that's you, you ain't in there. Fighters do care and will keep on caring.
    Go preach to someone else.

      On the one hand. I get it; Haney had to fly half-way around the world, take a pay concession AND agree to fly back to Australia to give Kambosos a rematch if he won. Devin did win and is now the A side and should be able to request more for the rematch. However, he did sign a contract in order to get the first fight. Now, if Kambosos's team agrees to amend said contract and pay Haney more for the rematch, that's their option. But they also have the option to refuse to make any changes to the already agreed to terms, which puts Haney in the position to decide whether he will honor or breach.
      Would they not have all that sorted before they signed??
      If not, his advisors should be fired

        And usyk will make probably 40 million.
        How much did Joshua get for Ruiz II?

        How much is Haney supposed to get for going to Australia again?

        It's cool if you're the A-side for the first fight and make A-side demands. But if you lose then it's a bit much to still limit the other guy's purse to some pathetic fraction of the total money involved.

          This reminds me of Chris Byrd defending against Stable mate Andrew Golota in MSG. Byrd was crying to Don King about his $500000 purse & was upset Golota was getting 4 million. King said “How many of the 20000 Poles are here to see you?”…

            It's not preaching. It's exposing that you're not a boxing fan. Which was necessary.

              I don't know if they put a clause in the contract that allows for *********s.

                Just because u beat the star, doesn't mean u become the star.
                The A side was still the A side when the contract was signed.

                Ruiz doubled his money for the rematch. Usyk is getting even more than that for his rematch.

                I'm not sure what haneys situation is but I'm sure he'll be getting significantly more for his rematch. If he's not, that's on him and his team.

                  Haney is like most slick defensive minded boxers. He’s “boring”. That isn’t illegal and we all know he “EASILY” whipped one footed Kambosos. That said, HE WON and he SHOULD be making the money of a WINNER.
                  That’s fair, wether it’s in Australia or USA. If Kambosos don’t like it. Suck a d1ck and let’s move on. I don’t want to see that fight again anyways. I’d rather see him fight Tank, Garcia, Loma or Teo. That’s the TRUTH.
