Comments Thread For: Bernard Hopkins-Danny Green is in Trouble Over Money

[Dorian]

See what beating a shot roy jones does to people?

Dumba$$ should be glad Hopkins even wants to fight him, he's letting the hot air get into his head. 70-30 should be more like it.

60/40 is very reasonable. Danny green I'm sure will make a ton of money off australian sponsors, etc.

i agree, i was surprised Hopkins went as low as 60% actually. Good deal for Green he should bite his hand of.

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Here is the problem. There is probably a lot more money involved on the Australia end. If Green brings all of that money to the table, why does he need to give Hopkins 60%>? There was no problems with Jones and Green and look at the millions that Jones made from that fight. More than he made for Trinidad or any other fight in the last few years.

I think 60/40 is a damn good deal for a shot at knocking off RJJ and BHOP one after the other. Green needs to think what he's passing up on.

Because who the hell else is green going to fight with a name like bernard hopkins? Anthony Mundine? Nope he ruled that out. So Green can go f himself and fight Sieko Bika or some random C level fighter.

Green talks about beating legends well the only legend willing to fight this guy is bhop, so either he gives bhop 60/40 or he can go fight for chump change

Why doesn't Hopkins stop cherry picking and take on a real fighter? Hell, everybody says that Haye is a dangerous fight for him, but he's not. When you stop to think about it he's a weak link from Cruiser to Heavy. He left the Cruiserweight division and I think both Adamek and Cunninngham would've beaten him and so would Arreola and Toney. Hopkins is just going after him because he has a belt while Adamek gets thrown to the wolves by fighting Arreola. I've gotten to the point of where I am not even a fan of Bernard Hopkins anymore.

Hopkins should just fight Dawson or retire, whats the point of fighting a c level fighter who has a semi worthless belt?

[Sweet Jesus]

Green will make good money even if he fights Crazy Kim. Australia doesn't have many top boxers so they cling to the ones they do have, that's why Mundine, Dib, Green, and others can fight bums, yet still sell out arenas and get PPV buys. When Hopkins fights a can, it's on some obscure channel Versus in America.

Danny Green in Australia>Hopkins in America
Danny Green should get more of the split, let alone the 50/50 he agreed too.
