    Now your talking about what the company should do. But not talking about what Chavez should do. And like I said before why would he go and make 5 mil less? Why would HE do that?

    And they would have made a ton on the fight itself. Its not about building him up. They just used that excuse to be bitter and lowball the kid. The fight itself would have made money. They talking about him being built up.

    He would have lost the fight and actually got taken down a notch. But the fight would have made everyone rich. Sorry bro, Im not going out of my way to hate on this fighter and that fighter. Not only does Chavez get props for wanting to fight GGG, but also props for being a wise business man. I never would have expected Chavez to not fall for the extension crap that Ghost and Bradley fell for. Floyd needed an opponent and Ghost would have gotten the fight without the extension. He fell for it unlike Chavez. Give the kid props.

      Your "lmao" means nothing to me. Pac looked up to Floyd, mimicked his style, then in return Floyd spit on him. Now this sig will live forever. And yea Floyd is scared of Pac, But also Floyd hated Pac just for people putting him on his level.

      Once he became a potential opponent, he was enemies in Floyd's eyes. Pac was looking for a father figure in Floyd lol

        Martinez is my favorite fighter, but Chavez was NOT going to duck GGG. Chavez is a young prime guy who has no fear of any fighter. He already lost and has nothing to lose. TR was trying to protect him, but he's a fighter he wants to take em all on. Martinez is sounding a little icky here. I dunno. But Martinez himself may never fight GGG, and he is older and does not have to.

        But Chavez aint scared of GGG bro. I actually earned respect for Chavez for how he dealt with the contract, and being a smart businessman. Unlike Bradley who signed an extension knowing that TR needed him to fight Pacman with or without it.

        Pac had no one else to fight except Bradley. Bradley didnt have to sign the extension and he could have still could have demanded a high purse due to the fact that TR has no big name credible ww's for Pac.

        He could have fought Pac, got out of his contract, went to Golden Boy and fought this stacked division. Now he will pad his empty ww resume with Rios, Pac 3 & 4, JMM 2,3, & 5, Mike Alvarado etc.

        Bradley is the most unproven ww today. Will never fight any of the young guys at gb between 140 and 154. Dumb businessman.
        Bradley $6 million vs Pacquaio.
        Maidana $1.5 million vs Floyd.
        That's all the business you need to know partner.

            He clearly ducked Golovkin, he turned down a completely massive offer that was more than far

              Chavez called out Martinez in 2009, and that's when the bad blood started.

              I think it comes down to the fact that Chavez has got balls, but his team knew he would get raked across the coals by Martinez at that point and that they needed to get him a real trainer and build him.

              His team and The WBC had been workedd hard to get Chavez either the 154 or 160 belt without having to fight Martinez, and they eventually stripped him of both. Sergio is still sore as hell about it, but I think that honestly from day one Chavez was willing to fight him and anyone else, really.

              Chavez has got balls man, I'll give him that. He would have fought Golovkin.

                It all started when they gave sergios belt to chavez and he held it hostage for a few years before fighting the real champ and at that time showed he was not anywhere near sergios level

                    all theses divas want to leave Top Rank cause then they have to fight some tough matchups. Ya top rank undercards suck but all their main events are competitive tough fights. Chavez used to be one of my favorites now hes taking the haymon GBP route, go fight some cans, rip of the fans, and thank al haymon for the least risk possible

                      Chavez knew what he was up against. He's got whooped in sparring by Golovkin before, not exactly surprising.
