      To sum it up, Pacquiao has made more in his last fight than Martinez and Bertos entire career put together.

      lol and because of dibella martinez will make more in his next fight then he has made in his entire career

        Picking Litzau as an opponent was a poor decision but it was probably not DiBella's choice.

        If Litzau is anything, he is big. You don't move up two classes and fight a guy who is huge for that division... Especially if your style and success has always depended on you being at least 5 inches taller than your opponent.

          martinez did that all by himself by performing in the ring. dibella didn't do jack **** except call HBO and collect a check.

            it's not dibella's fault caballero sucks. don't try and pin it on dibella. all dibella is, is the liason with HBO.

              DiBella got him a Mosley fight. Not Lou's fault that the untimely desire of some distant relatives that Berto had never met caused him to back out.

                I agree with you on that one but I blame HBO in throwing money at a guy that's relatively unproven.

                I'm talking about guys like Paulie, Taylor, Green and Martinez who in a short few fights have made big names/ nice pay days for themselves.

                  dibella is one of the few promoters that actually seems to genuinely care alot about his fighters in my opinion

                    dibella should've told berto to not demand the lion's share with mosley in the 2nd round of negotiations.

                    that was a dumb ass move

                      You should work on reading comprehension

                      I specifically said it probably wasn't DiBella's choice and you say I am pinning it on DiBella?

                      Not sure how you came to that conclusion.
