    Guerrero has 2 things going for him he speaks English, and the story of his wife's cancer. Plus Guerrero seems to care more about what he makes, the squeaky wheel gets the grease.


    But but but Maidana beat Floyd's little bro, that has to be worth more than Guerrero's wife's story of cancer. I swear you'll grasp at the tiniest straws sometimes

      I would call in consensual and Maidana ain't no minor.


      What is Maidana's value? He is like a 500k a fight guy, which isn't bad but he is never going to be more unless he hits on a huge opportunity like this and he ain't getting any younger. I think a lot of you are knocking the value of that opportunity. I said pretty much the same thing when Manny gave Clottey like a 90/10 split.


      Carlos Baldomir did not speak English...had 3 fans, no storyline, 1 upset win and somehow got $1.6mil?


      he made more than what Maidana is making

        Well, no point in convincing you. Seems like if Maidana was paid 500k, you'd justify that as well. Minds already been made up I guess.

          His mind was already made up before posting. You're not gonna change his mind.

            Suggesting Maidana is not getting any PPV upside, is suggesting he's a ****** man, and everyone surrounding him is ******. Like Duran when fighting Leonard for the 1st time, he most likely is taking the lesser purse for back end guarantees and the OPPORTUNITY to pull off the upset.

            What he's earning considering his position, and who he is facing is nothing new.

              Speculated is the key word

              Same as so many SPECULATING he might not have a PPV upside

              I was simply saying we dont know and its in my posts.

              And gave my opinions on either one

                A lot apparently. Those with no interest will not read about it let alone post about it.

                  If that was what they offered to pay him that is what he is worth~

                  You are worth what people are willing to offer, not just some random ass number based on what the bigger name is making~
                  You have got to be fkin kidding me, right?

                  I don't even like Maidana and I'm a Guerrero fan but theres no fkin way Guerrero is or was worth more than Maidana. Wtf had Guerrero done before the Foyd fight? NOTHING compared to what Maidana has done.

                    That was a long time ago, and Baldomir was the champ at that point he really didn't need Floyd he could have sat around milking his belt so they had to get him on board.

                    Maidana was in no where near as good position to negotiate, he needs Floyd to really take it to the next level at least in short order, so I don't call those situations similar but in boxing it is very hard to find exact similar circumstance.
