Comments Thread For: Sergio Martinez Offered Record Purse For Dmitry Pirog

[americanbot]

Actually, he was saying that he ****s your dad, meaning your dad takes it up the ****** from him.

gay is gay..............

Also, I would like to know what this record offer is. What is it 1.7 million? 2 million?

Martinez gets about 1.5 million from HBO, I doubt he would go to Russia for a few hundred thousand dollars. But if they're talking 4 or 5 million, even if Martinez would have to knock Pirog out, it would make great economic sense.

So it's more money on that fight on russia than on the US?

I haven't really seen many big fights happening in that country, even Valuev fought in Germany because there was more money there.

How much money?, anybody knows this? Sergio made 1.5 against barker. Anyway, if there's a lot of money he should take this fight. Pirog looked like crap against Maciel and that other russian guy, shouldn't be hard for him to beat him.

valuev fought in germany because no one cares about him in Russia. smart ppl know he is dumb ass.

russian economy is on top now, and Moscow has most billionares than any other city. I'm sure they found some1 who invest 10mil into this fight

pirog's not a bum.... other than sturm, he's probably the only real middleweight worth fighting for martinez....

pirog must be confident.... martinez looked pretty horrible last time out.

[Russian Crushin]

I honestly don't understand his ducking of pirog

I like Pirog but sergio shouldNt have much of a problem beating him, all while getting the biggest purse of his career?!

Tha's true, Martinez didn't look great, but he still won the majority of the rounds and knocked the undefeated fighter out. Imagine if Sergio was sharp/

[leonthegee]

It better be for like 4 to 5 million or tell the commie to **** off.

[New England]

until we hear a dollar amount this "news" coming from a russian source means nothing. there's obviously an appeal there for making martinez seem like he's ducking pirog.

"record purse" makes it sound like a bunch of nonsense


they'll need more than that to assert that martinez is ducking pirog


how about a dollar amount?
a ballpark even?

I don't knw how much knowledge you have about boxing, but about 10 years ago Darius Michalczewski and hi promoters were offering Roy Jones more money than HBO was offering to go over to Germany and fight Darius.

Roy Jones wouldn't even hear it.
