    Haney will not risk his status as the Undisputed Paper Champion of the World.

      Devin Haney was made to take the short end of the stick and accept a rematch clause in order to get the Kambosos fight.

      Now it’s Shakur’s turn. If he really wants a shot at all 4 belts then prove it, accept the 25% purse split.

        Shakur is willing to fight any fighter, he can't even get fighters to face him. But if he really wants a shot to all the belts and they can't negotiate over 25% if the WBC orders it he has to take it. That will be his investment if he really thinks that he will win.

          u could look at it a few ways, haney might say well i took the short end of the stick to get my belts and got the job done, so why not u shakur, accept the 25% and try to get the job done for all the belts, why not? thats a legit stance to take i think, haney in the driving seat, if i was shakur id take the 25% and do it quick, forget about crying to the orgs actually, teo did sameish with loma i think, look a fairly low cut and got it done, its a motivating factor maybe too, ok u lowball me i will make u pay

              Haney got 22% and traveled to another country and was paid less in the rematch as champion. Nobody criticized Kamboso when he stacked the deck against Haney but Shakur is supposed to get it all because of what? Man up take the belts then you call the shots.

                Shakur is from Jersey so yall know I rep him to the fullest and cant wait until he destroys all these LW’s and JWW’s.

                This post is 100% spot on. Bob did Haney dirty. Shakur better expect Haney’s Team not to do same to him so long as he is promoted by Bob.

                  Get the belts and call the shots? Thats not how it works. Get the belts and be dictated to. Shakur wants equal pay and Haney has all the belts. How is that calling the shots?

                    I don't understand. Why is this fight have to be forced on Haney? He doesn't want it, does he? What am I missing?

                    I thought he's not following Floyd Mayweather's footsteps when he said he's blaming him for messing up the sport. What is he waiting for?

                      50/50 is just as ****** as 75/25. Likely it's just public haggling. Haney made a ****** offer, now Shakur is making a ****** counter offer. That will make meeting in the middle at something like 60/40 easier to swallow for both sides.

                      Haney has done what he needed to get the belts, aside from actually winning the Loma fight. I don't really think he's scared of Shakur, but it's a risky fight, especially now that he has a better idea that he's not invincible or anything after that fight with Loma, and he certainly wants to get paid to risk losing those belts.
