Andre Berto Wanted 1.85 Million Of The 3 Million HBO Offer For A Cotto-Berto Fight

[GhostfaceKillah]

Martinez wanted 1.5 to 2 million to fight Cotto. How can anyone blame Arum or Cotto for those fights not happening?

At least Sergio Martinez is the recognized MW champ, so he can demand a good share of the $$$. Berto is a guy who fights scrubs and has Floyds leftover belt.

[M.I Truth ?]

Hey you know promoters take their shares too right?

Of coarse. The point I am making is that Berto wasnt asking for the lions share of the money like the title makes it see. Money has nothing to do with why this fight didn't get made. HBO actually wants this fight.

Seriously Cotto should get 2.5million from that 3 million.
Who the hell pays to watch Andre Berto?

Haymon and HBO created this overpriced monster. That's what happens when you pay a guy $1+ million dollars to fight journeymen, he begins to think the world owes him something even though he hasn't proven **** in boxing. Another inexplicable blunder by the geniuses at HBO

Was it? Lou DiBella, who promotes Martinez and Berto, doesn't think so. DiBella says Martinez would have taken a Cotto fight for similar money that he is getting to face Sergei Dzinziruk ($1.5 and $2 million). As for Berto, DiBella says the $1.85 million he asked for was for a total package that including site fees, sponsorship and foreign revenue he estimated to be worth in excess of $5 million.

STFU! the warrior myth has been proved false! cotto is a fraud like his daddy pacq! top rank is the WWE of boxing.
