Doesn't actually say they turned a fight down though? Doesn't say JMM wanted the fight from what I can see there. Maybe I missed that part..
But I believe an offer of around half a million was offered to JMM in 2000 for the fight but he turned it down.
For the record, I'm not saying Hamed would have beat JMM as his style would have given him problems.
it was a lowball 400k offer intended to be turned down, naz's camp executed to perfection. that was the first thing i found on a google search, but its fact that manny stated that he wanted his pupil, as in that link i provided, to stay as far away from jmm as possible.
