Comments Thread For: Andrade-Parker: Queensberry Promotions ($305,000) Reclaims Interim Title Fight, Eyed For November 5

$183,000?

Damn, Andrade stays losing.

The burse bid was $1.8 million before Andrade had the injury and pulled out. Warren knows this is do or die for Andrade. Demetrius needs the belt otherwise he's cast out of Valhalla. Smart move by Warren, although dickish.

Wow - that is a staggering loss of payday. 17% of what he would have earned vs the same opponent less than a year ago.

It's a little less then that I think it's like 15% lol

Queensberry won the rights to the fight earlier this year, submitting a bid of $1,834,050 to outpace Matchroom Boxing, Andrade’s promoter at the time who bid $1,750,000. Andrade was due 65-percent of the winning bid ($1,192,132.50).

New bid guarantess him just $183,000

Get tha fak outofhere men

pay day u want pay day

Parker will still get what he was promised earlier in the year because his promoter won and he has contracts to guarantee his pay outside of the purse bid. But Queensberry isn't obligated to pay Andrade anything but the $183,000 so only Andrade getting screwed here.

Because Andrade promoter dropped him and nobody representing him with a TV deal they just bid the bare minimum knowing no one else would bid and won the rights for the same fight he pulled out. This is a epic failure on Andrade part.

Shows you just how much DAZN was overpaying a lot of fighters DAMN!

[chepboxingking]

No way this fight happens. Not for that purse. Hopefully Andrade saved up some of that DAZN/Hearn $$ because its not looking good right now.

People have argued over what Andrade's dumbest move was. Was it avoiding Charlo, or avoiding Lara? But I'd say pulling out of a fight where you were gonna get 1.1M, only to come back to it and get paid only 100K is even worse.

I got nothing against Andrade. Seems a nice enough guy, talented fighter. But it's been a mismanaged career and the chances of me ever re-watching one of his fights is near 0%. Am expecting him to turn this low payday down and never face any top fighter, losing to some random C-level guy in a couple of years in front of 500 people.

Any other promoter could have put in a bid but I guess no one was interested.

Good grief imagine being at this stage of your career and this is the paydays you command. Andrade is his own worst enemy.

That's shocking money when you consider Katie Taylor got 2 million dollars for the serrano fight. Even serrano who has little or no exposure got 1 million dollars for that fight. No wonder Eddie dumped Andrade
