Comments Thread For: Andrade: I'm Not Gonna Go Fight Over In Zach Parker's Country For $150 Grand

[SteveM]

He just wants a "Paaaaaaaayyyyyy Daaaaayyyyy" and no one is going to give it to him, the purse bid of $305,000 proves than no one wants to see or certainly pay to see this horrrrrrrrible boxer.

I think it means that the sole bidder wasn't going to bid against himself to put more money than necessary in both boxer's pockets

He's like crawford. Overpaid and has become completely delusional as to his own worth. Also an ego maniac.

Nobody has said that Crawford didn't get paid an 8 figure sum for his last fight. That suggests that Crawford knows exactly what he is doing and what he is worth. Sport is one thing. Business is another. When they happily coincide to the point both teams are content with their payday - then we get a fight - hopefully a good fight.

Demetrius, that’s how much you deserve per fight. You’ve never ever sold out an arena. You’ve never fought elite fighters in your career, you cannot stand up here and demand a purse you’re not worth

If I say I'm gonna buy your car for ten grand on Friday and then on Monday I offer you $1,500 - are you still selling it to me?

Demetrius is content with containing this lane/path for his career. It's a shame, but it is what it is.

Considering your pro blk racism im surprised you’re even shaming him

[F l i c k e r]

is this guy still relevant?

A lot of people have said that crawford didn't get an 8 figure sum for his last fight. No one who wasn't involved in the deal really knows. If he did, it is likely because someone is trying to lose money. Maybe andrade can find someone trying to do the same.

It’s a shame that No one told Andrade that he pissed his boxing career away. Over 28 is PAST YOUR PRIME. BHop is one of the few exceptions and most heavyweights seem to last longer if they stay serious.
He should of been taking risks at 28 and taking the less money to get his name known. Instead he would continuously play “measure my d@ck with competitors. You want to be the man? Whip him then. Yes, you’ll have to take a pay cut but you’ll get your money back easily IF YOU CAN WHIP HIM. Ask Bivol.

This guy is so full of it. If he was so confident in his skill, he would of taken 150k in order to become the mandatory for a big purse against Canelo. Even if Canelo vacated it would of open up doors. This just shows that he's not confident and that he's looking for the easiest possible way to a big money fight.

I don’t like to go into fighters finances but I can tell you for a fact Andrade would have earned a lot more than 150k. He just didn’t want the fight plain and simple.

From whose pockets after being dropped from Matchroom?

Bruh shut up you don't know what you talking about.

There was a purse bid for the fight. We saw the amount that was bid. It was ridiculously low.
