Comments Thread For: Cordina Not Financially Motivated To Fight O'Shaquie Foster: "Good Fighter But I'm Not Making No Money From Him"

[BlackRobb]

It's simple. Wood offers much more money in a much bigger fight. Wood is world champion moving up. Nobody even knows Foster for it to be a money fight. How is this lost on you?

Not only that, but Cordina wanted it but Eddie told him there wasn't any money in it.

The ole "not enough money" cowardice, huh? How much money was in the Vasquez fight today, a fight many fans believe Cordina lost. Your boy went life-and-death with someone he was a massive favorite over. Now do you see why he's petrified of Foster and Navarrete?

Cordina wants the fights with Foster and Navarette you idiot. But we both know Arum won't allow the Navarette fight to happen. Foster will want to be paid his biggest payday but Eddie has already said there isn't any money in the fight. Vasquez didn't get paid close to what Foster would ask for. Cordina took most of the money in that fight. Quite simple really.

Eddie was talking about it at the end of the fight so might go for it. We'll just have to wait and see. But it's true. Foster doesn't sell at all. Wood does.

How much is Foster asking for?

He doesnt know. Making assumptions.

[Rbs3rd]

This attitude is what keeps me from loving boxing. He mustve been paid a $hi+ ton of money to fight vasquez.

He's repeating something Hearn said. He's good for pushing the Matchroom fc agenda.

So perhaps some of these comments might not be do harsh if Cordina had been a bit more forthcoming and said something along the lines of "I'm looking at a bigger money fight with Wood next; that's the fight Eddie wants to make. Maybe a unification after that."?

The old “if the money is right” mentality (ie cowardice excuse) strikes again

Cmon 'OldschoolG, you're meant to know better than that. Like me, you've been following the fight game for many years.These guys are putting their lives & their health on the line every time they fight. EVERY TIME they could end up blind, dead, in a wheelchair, permanently damaged. They are entitled to get paid &, right now, Cordina will get paid better for Wood than for Navarette or Foster or anyone else. If you don't like it try educating UK fight fans so that they understand what Cordina v Foster means, good luck with that!

He's waiting for the Wood payday. I guess he figueres he'd rather get his butt whooped by his own countryman than by Shock Ice Water

Foster-Wood is the real fight.

In my lifetime I can think of one man who lived up to that idea of always taking the best challenger, never avoiding anyone. His name was Muhammad Ali. He became, of course, a legend. He also ended up unable to talk or walk in a straight line because of all the punches he'd taken. I think any boxer, looking at Ali, might see drawbacks to that approach to his career.
