Not to mention that Top Rank has groomed him from the start and despite using his dad's name and legacy they have been supportive through all the weight/drug issues. So instead he will sit out for over a year, sounds like another ****** decision by Chavez, one of many in his career. Who on earth can Haymon get for him for that sort of money?? Getting beat by Stevenson at LHW doesn't seem all that smart.
I think Chavez realized that him taking an ass whooping wouldn't be beneficial for his career.

Originally posted by MC Hammer View PostYeah, but what throws me off is the last paragraph, where Bob says, if he's leaving after the fight, I see no reason to give him a large sum. So it sounds like he has the option to leave, and Bob can't make him stay, so he's withholding money. maybe i'm reaching but its not that clear to me.

Originally posted by Cinci Champ View Postya it be different if they were offering extra for an extension but only giving him a third of what hes worth? they are making it seem like the one without the extension is what hes really worth which there is no way they are literally trying to force him into signing an extension which is strange you would think it be bad business as other fighters looking for promotions will see this kind of thing

Originally posted by anonymous2.0 View PostESPN says that without the extension Chavez jr was offered 2.5 million, same as his first Brian Vera fight. This offer is 'less then 1/3rd' what was offered to Chavez with extensions. Make of this what you will.

Originally posted by BIGPOPPAPUMP View PostFormer champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. says he was offered a much lower purse then expected for a potential fight with WBA/IBO middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin, who would move up to 168-pounds to take the fight. The match was targeted for July 19th at the Forum in Los Angeles but now appears to be a dead issue with both fighters heading in different directions.
Chavez was willing to take the fight, but only as long as Top Rank provided no promotional contract extension in the agreement. Chavez believes his contract expires by the end of the year and Top Rank claims to have him until October 2015.

Anonymous posts a number and unanimous takes off running. Everything comes out of that purse and a lot of people get paid out of it. Why not demand more for 3G, that's harder work than Vera. At least on paper, since Jr is really a cruiser weight.
