      Or Gary Shaw sucks at negotiation?...you lose at the weight the fight is being held...the location the fight is being held...the purse? It all leads to Shaws shortcomings...

      How can you hate Ward for having a better team around him?

            Tim Bradley received $1.1M vs. Casamayor on the undercard of a Pacquiao PPV.

            So tell me, how do they deserve more money? The gate will make like 50k if they lucky.... You think people gonna give them 10m when they bring in no money at all? Im surprised HBO didnt make this a PPV, since they wont get any money back from this event...

            Draw 500 people, get paid millions? Oh Al-Haymon hi there......

            just like Berto and other Haymon fighters, get millions while having no fans/revenue generation
            Ward-Kessler drew 11K in Oakland. Ward-Green drew 9K in Oakland.

              Even Shane made $650k against Canelo, and he was on his way out of the game. C'mon Chad, WTH? Somebody give this dude Al Haymon's number, please.

                  Berto got paid like 900k to fight Quintana, Bradley got 1.2 mil for old ass Casa. Do they have more fans than Ward and Dawson?

                    im thinking this also the way devon alexander got $1.3 million for his 10 round fight against lucas matthysse
                    i think fighters get a bigger chunk of the purse if they are the hometown fighter and its their fanbase that is buying the tickets ala alexander in st louis
