Comments Thread For: Burns-Vazquez Clash in Serious Jeopardy Over Money

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

According to sources in Mexico, there are serious issues with the lightweight unification between Ricky Burns (35-2, 10KOs) and Miguel Vazquez (33-3, 13KOs), scheduled to headline a very big show on March 16th at Wembley Arena in London. Reportedly Vazquez and his management never agreed to the financial terms of the fight. One source told BoxingScene.com that Vazquez's management had requested a certain purse figure for their boxer to travel over and fight Burns in the UK, but that number has yet to be met. With the date being less than a month away, some of the involved parties in Mexico believe the fight will fall apart.

Wow. Seriously?

Bring on Broner vs. One of these two then.

Hahahahahaha wow

Maybe Burns got cold feet and realized he could lose the Broner fight if Vazquez beats him.....

Or it looks like Vazquez wants too much money.

Who knows??? Vazquez did turn down 350K to fight Broner last November.

I'd be extremely disappointed if this falls apart...

Vazquez pricing himself out again?

[ShoulderRoll]

It figures. 2013 so far has been a horrible year for boxing.

Pay Vasquez what you agreed on, Frank Warren.

I dont want to jump to conclusions but i hate boxing sometimes.

Whoever is to blame, Vasquez asking for too much or Burns lowballing, get it sorted. Im looking forward to this fight goddammit.

If Vazquez prices himself out, than f**k him. I automatically assumed it was Burns, but it looks like Vazquez wants too much money. He is the same guy who turned down 350K to fight Broner in November.
