Yeah Uncle Bob, Berto = most overpaid fighter.

[Evil Abed]

****!!!! If they really wanted to make it happen they would find a way to make it happen. Make it a ppv with a solid undercard and offer Berto a 40/60 split.

**** that.

He hasn't earned it period.

More like 75/25

Berto would not even accept 50/50 with Shane Mosley.

arum has been screwing the peterson brothers,kendal holt,and clottey for years. quote from mayweather who left top rank. its bob's way of making himself happy.retaliation from mayweather leaving and thats one of the main reason arum did his part to screw up the mayweather pac fight.retaliation.

Arum wants to keep all the money and doesnt like his fighters facing other fighters.Berto gets paid whatever and that's because he deserves it,Cotto meanwhile has a slave contract so I dont see why the fight cant be made.Pay Cotto his usual peanuts and to Berto what belongs to Berto

The HBO executives are ****ed in the head they wouldn't give Angulo 900k to fight Martinez in what would have been an incredible fight. But they turn around and give this hypejob a million dollars to fight nobodies in what will certanly be a boring hug and pot shot fest.

Petersons have a very high minimum per fight. They went to Top Rank instead of Golden Boy because Top Rank offered them so much more money. Holt was only with Top Rank for like 2-3 fights? If even that. Holt was a Main Events fighter for years. Clottey just made 3 million plus for Pacquiao.

All of those fighters have one thing in common, they draw flies to arenas and including to their hometowns. What did Berto draw in Florida for Quintana? It was like 700 paid seats in his own hometown.

Berto is pricing himself out of the fight. Call it ducking if you want.

Berto wants this fight yet he cant sell hotcakes outside of florida.he needs bow wow,chris brown,and twitter to promote his fights.no draw power whats so ever.lame.
