    Idk about this. I think Tim could get Mell bigger money to fight in Aussieland than Mell could get himself to fight in the US.

    Saying someones name doesn't regulate you to accept anything offered. Hell guys can offer bad deals regardless if you are saying their name.

      But then there are cases where the beggar gets to demand something more like Frank Martin's case. He kept mentioning Shaku's name and when it was offered, he wanted retirement money, which sounds to me like you won't be in the fight to win, but to lose. Nowadays, the opportunity to beat a big name and the potential of making more money you never imagine would come is never taken into consideration.
      There are many cases where beggars suddenly become choosers. I have examples, but I feel they're no longer relevant in these "networks closing shops" era of the sport. (I have to mention Fox Sports boxing because they stayed for at least 2 years before closing shop.)
