Comments Thread For: Peter Quillin Vacates WBO Title, Roc Nation Comments

[Queen_Leia]

Perhaps Haymon has some kinda cunning plan by which Quillin can recover his lost $1.4 mil, but it's hard to see how that begins with dropping his title which is his most obvious leverage when it comes to negotiating purses.

I hope you are aware that I'm not defending Haymon for messing with Kid Chocolate career like this...it's deplorable.


Just because he hates Hov...ok fine, find another way to get at him but he's hurting Kid in two ways.

1. Take away the title belt thus removing his drawing power.

2. Having his turn down a career high payday (double the payday that GGG has ever gotten fighting on HBO)


Like I said, as someone who doesn't really have a problem with Haymon....this act right here is undefensible and de****able

i think he is going to change his name, his tweeter account is getting hammer...

This was a Haymon move all the way. For Quillin to do this, they probably had to pay him something fierce under the table. WHat he really is gonna regret is giving up the belt

No one was talking about this fight until today. Why are you guys so mad its not happening? Most wouldn't have cared if it ever happened in the first place. You guys are like kids. You don't want something until you can't have it

I'm just glad he's being exposed as the coward he is when he realized Korobov isn't some chinny 154 pounder

Forgot to mention something, remember this too, coming another announcement. Garcia won't fight Postol he'll vacate, the same as Quillin here, and he will fight a low ranked guy on his welter debut.

At least Garcia was the best fighter in his division at one point. Quillin is nobody, earned a paper belt against nobody, and defended it against mediocrity while looking horrible.

I don't think Quillin is afraid of Korobov. If he was, I don't think Golden Boy would have bid $1.2M for the fight, I think Quillin would have just vacated the title when the mandatory was ordered. This is an HBO/SHO and Haymon/Roc Nation issue.

I do, quillin is the same guy that pretended he couldn't fight golovking because he was an exclusive showtime fighter but then it was revealed that was a lie. floyd mayweather fans like to claim cowards don't exist in boxing, but cowards do exist. no amount of money will get them to conquer their fears.

I don't believe cowards exist. Mainly because if you gave me $1M dollars, I'd get in the ring with any pro my size even though I would be stopped within 15 seconds and could possibly lose my life.

Anybody that has been in the gym training to fight every day since the ages of 8-12 is not afraid of any human being their size.

But then again, they call me a realist.

So wtf do you call a trained professional who refuses to do that?

You'd have to assume the bigger picture has yet to expose itself.

But hey I'm just like you, I wanted to see this fight.
