On Thursday, BoxingScene.com ran a story where junior middleweight contender Alfredo "El Perro" Angulo explained why he rejected an offer of $750,000 dollars to fight WBC middleweight champion Sergio Martinez. Angulo explained to me that he thought he could negotiate for a little more money. He also didn't think it was right that Martinez was going to get a percentage of the gate. Angulo felt he should be getting a percentage himself since he would be drawing most of the fans in a heavily Mexican populated area like Los Angeles where he believed the fight would be held.

"The fact is that I offered Perro $750,000 and told him that is all I have" - ShawI told them that $750,000 was all I could get. -Mike CriscioI told him we might be able to get them up to $800,00 but that would be about it.- Mike CriscioSo Shaw keeps 25% of Angulo's money?? Maybe Angulo found about the $1 million they offered Shaw and he wanted a bigger cut?DiBella offered Shaw, Angulo's promoter, a package of about $1 million, Angulo turned down the fight.
I can't remember the last time a promoter and manager crucified a fighter for wanting more money. I remember Paul Williams wanted 50/50 cut against Pavlik and I don't remember Dan Goosen or Haymon ****ting all over him for holding out..
Whatever I'm over it, Williams vs Martinez is the fight I want to see anyways.Comment

Angulo's Dog shat anyways he should fight Margarito after Pac stops him.Comment
that's true though. I have a feeling Perro is going to turn into a bigger ***** later on demanding millions and millions. He should be grateful he ain't fighting on ESPN anymore. Now he wants to sit out instead of fighting Martinez.
