HBO Rejects Lopez-Concepcion... Showtime Accepts

[Iceta Lives]

Sure Why not!!



And then in another statement, Leon Arguelles Caballeros manager admitted the 150K offe was made. But i dont have a link to prove it, so this is just some random poster, with some rumor, but it is true!!!1

If Lopez is such a warrior, he'll vacate his belt and won't fight the Vasquez-Marquez winner. But he'll fight them while making up the excuse that they are his mandatory. Watch. And then after that fight is over with he'll call his countryman Wilfredo Gomez out of retirement. I don't think Gomez could make 122 or 126 anymore though could he? Gomez would probably fight Caballero before Juan Ma would even now though.

What I don't understand is, how can you offer a 150K payday to a more proven guy in the division and at the same time demand over a $ million. It doesn't go together. If you are offering peanuts to one guy that is more proven to you, you don't demand a steak while he gets the peanuts. Cab has always had that ***** shook.

I'll take it with a grain of salt, but even if it's true, you only give those types of take it or leave it deals when you don't really want that fight.

I could give you dozens of examples of fighters making those types of offers to a fighter that they don't really want and if they do want it, they basically want to **** the other. Hopkins made one of these offers to Adamek not too long ago.

I can see old slick Bobby pulling that on Lopez and Cab's people..

I strongly doubt that if Arum went to Lopez and was like you will be fighting for 250K against Caballero Lopez would turn it down.

I'm sorry but these dudes are professional fighters. They aren't "scared".

All in a days work for Arum. The geezer is old, but he isn't senile yet. Do you think it's a coincidence Pavlik-Abraham didn't happen? HBO wanted it, they probably would've given up a couple million for that fight. Then another million or 2 from the German network Sauerland/Abraham is signed to.

When these guys really want a fight negotiations go smoothly and the fight gets made. The only way **** isn't made is if there is a major hurdle. That Mayweather-Pacquiao **** was a dog and pony show btw. 2 months isn't enough to promote a fight of that magnitude or enough time to prepare for the most difficult opponent of their career.

if lopez fights marquez/vazquez winner next thats the first lopez fight im not going to watch in a long time

[AnimalisticMeth]

Lopez will be back on HBO pretty soon just like Cotto after Quintana.

Thats a lowball offer and you know it.The guy is practically unified champ at 22 for years and you expect him to get paid less than Juanma?

Que barbaro.

how come is that a low ball offer if is his biggest payday and a shot to the spotlight???

when zab judah fougth cory spinks he got paid only 100K...

and what happend he make the most of it... became the unified ww....same **** goes with caballero.. thats how the game goes...


it seems like he got a winky wright syndrome at the last minute....now hes risking more for less!!!


bad management!!

i know juanma said that about the 150k offer that bob told him that he made to caba's manager, the funny thing is that caba's manager claimed that it was a lie and that bob never even called him, i think that's what bob just told juanma but in reality the cat never even tried to make the fight with caba

I also dont believe the offer, I dont think Arum made any offer to the Caba camp, Arum would rather put his own fighters together than feed them to other rival.

anyway... if this move from hbo is gonna help us to get more even fights!!! IM ON FOR IT!!!
