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

[Sid-Knee]

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

What am i repeating? That Hearn said there isn't any money in it? Why would that be a problem in saying that?

I've also said i prefer the Foster unification over a fight with Wood but understand that the Wood fight will bring a lot more money. How is that pushing an "FC Matchroom agenda"? What.

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

He got 350k guaranteed. Vasquez got 225k. Foster also got 350k for his fight vs Hernandez. It's possible that the money will be there after Foster's fight, but I suspect Cordina v Leigh Wood in the UK is a better sell.

[Sid-Knee]

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."?

Cordina has said plenty of times he'd like the Foster fight but understands Foster doesn't bring the big money. Why shouldn't he acknowledge Foster not being a big money fight? Is it illegal or something? What am i missing here.

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!

British fight fans understand unifications. But they also understand that not all unifications are money spinners. They know Wood is a bigger money fight for Joe because Wood sells a lot more tickets than Foster.

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.

Why would Wood vs Foster be the real fight? Because Cordina had a tougher time than expected against Vasquez? Foster had a tougher time than expected against Hernandez plus losing to two bums. Therefore, if Cordina is scolded due to a tough fight, Foster and Navarette should be scolded more, considering.

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.

I think you need to be reminded about the Foreman rematch not happening. Ali didn't want it. Foreman did though. Same thing with Jimmy Young.

Cordina just said out of his own mouth that the Foster fight wouldn't pay him enough, you STOOGE. I keep forgetting that you can't read. So a retread from 126 will sell more where, in the land of fish & chips and cheap ale? In America, fans are dying to see Shock Foster put someone else to sleep.

Yes, Cordina vs Wood would sell out an arena in the UK. You've seen how well Wood sells haven't you?

No one cares about Foster in the US. The US doesn't care about most of your fighters. That's why most fight in tiny little arena's like Foster does. Unless you can point out where a 20,000 seater arena was sold on the back of Foster? Didn't think so. Clearly they're not dying enough. Which, is a shame where the likes of you are concerned. I'd pay to watch you die. Having people with your minds should be illegal. Just glad there's a really big asylum to house you called the USA.

Sid-Knee is a matchroom shill, not worth talking to.

He doesn't post unless it's defending Hearn or his fighters or broadcaster. Its weird.

Where was i shilling? Pointing out Eddie said there wasn't money in it? Or maybe it was acknowledging the fact Wood does bring more money to the table considering he can sell out an arena. Yeah, i'm really shilling there. Haha. You've never pointed out which has the bigger money attached to it or anything. Never have you lied and contradicted yourself repeatedly either.

What you do with Frank and Fury, That's shilling. You just hate the fact i've slapped you down one too many times.

I've ran you out of plenty of threads

Most of my posts on are general boxing posts, nothing to do with Warren or Fury

99% of yours are defending eddie hearn and his fighters.

Not sure that you're missing anything as i think we're seeing the same thing tbh. It's maybe just more about how cordinas said it, or at least how his comments were perceived.
