Schaefer: "Hatton Promotions blew Quillin fight for Murray."

[ShoulderRoll]

Quillin was never fighting in England let alone against Martin Murray.

So you're saying that Richard Schaefer is a liar?

[soul_survivor]

True, but in England, he'd probably also get TV money and other things of that nature too right?

I'm not sure what kind of TV money he'd get. Murray doesn't have deal with Sky since Hatton Promotions is working with Warren on Boxnation...but I seem to remember Murray/Martinez on Sky, I might be mistaken though.

Having said all that, Schafer is just giving his side of the story, Murray and Hatton/Poxon weren't scared of taking Murray to Argentina to fight their biggest name fighter in 30 years or so, I'm pretty sure they aren't scared of, or ducking Quillin.

It must have been a financial problem. Quillin doesn't exactly bring the big bucks so any split lower than 60/40 makes no sense, having said that, if it's true that Quillin was willing to travel to the UK then I could see it as a huge opportunity for Murray, who has a smaller fan base here than Barker. It would be a great marquee show for him. I'd like to hear Hatton proms side of things

Schaefer is a dirty con artist. Best not to believe the garbage from his garbage burnt lips.

[junior gong]

Schaefer is one of the biggest crooks in the sport, so its fair to say that the deal offered was probably really crap.

[Hitman932]

The Hatton Promotions team was fine with the location and the split but the deal didn't go through because GBP wouldn't pony up the mandatory kilo of coke necessary to get Hatton's attention.

[Weebler I]

Probably, but if an offer went out and if they did decline, I'd like to know why

I'm sure there will be a response.

I don't believe they would send Quillin over to fight in England. Quite aside from the protection he gets they would have to put up a lot of dollars to make it worth it in pounds, they wouldn't even offer Rosado 75k.

So you're saying that Richard Schaefer is a liar?

He's a promoter isn't he? You chaps have said it enough times about Bob Arum, what makes Schaefer any better? Here's a clue: nothing.

.

No doubt about that, they were quick about the Golovkin air being sent around, we'll get a response most likely today or tomorrow.
As for Rosado tough, that was because they were trying to have it on Fox Sports one on a Monday.... horrible time slot there, especially with Monday Night Football

Why wouldnt he lie? he is a boxing promoter ffs, or is Arum the only liar in boxing? What a bumsniff.

IBF belt might get taken hostage, ain't that a bitch?

Honestly, we've been waiting for these fights for years.

Nothing beats British domestic dust-ups. Let us have this belt until they all fight each other. I realise that could be until the end of their careers but these are awesome fights, lol. It is only one of the straps!

Not sure how interested any British fans are about having Golovkin squash them all one by one.

Exactly. Sick of people quoting Schaefer as if he's some measure stick of truth. He's a liar like the rest of them.
