I thought the fight was at 147 I must be wrong cause chaves was allowed to weigh in at 148

How they are paying brandon $925k and this kid $25k for this fight made me sick to my stomach. I hope Chaves pulls off the upset, would be perfect Karma.

he was allowed to do so because of the problem with the visa and the fact that he arrived to the US really late. like a compensation i guess.

I guess when tey have T.V rights they severely cut their pay... because 25k is just sad.... this is worse than when Guerrero fought Kamegai

Fat Dan's tweet said he gets low balled because he gets Argentinian TV money too. Still pretty sad to see how much the punching bag Rios is getting paid though.

Rios shouldn't even be making this type of money after 2 loses in a row maybe like 600k and give chaves at least 75k
