Comments Thread For: Leo Santa Cruz: I'd Want $3 Million To Face Rigondeaux

[-PBP-]

Dudes don't even make that fighting Floyd. I can't wait till Mares lays this dude out.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

he's already made a million before

Against who?

He knows there's no way that there's even enough money available for him to make $3m - it's called pricing yourself out. The guy is the biggest joke in boxing right now.

LSC knows his career will be over after that fight, so he needs cushion money

Right. LSC actually is ruling out any hope of seeing him fight Rigondeaux... When asked if he would fight Rigo in case he's offered $1mln, LSG answers that it isn't enough -- he asks for $3mln instead...

He just priced himself out

[kiaba360]

As others have stated, he's getting spoiled with his current purses. Santa Cruz is really becoming unlikable. I remember being so excited about him when I saw his performance against Morel, but now I've grown tired of the match-up quality and all these decision victories. Dude, you went 12 with old Mijares! WTF is that?

[Daddy T]

he knows the fight can't generate that sort of money. He might as well say I'll fight Rigo for a ******* from a twenty year old Marilyn Monroe

haymons given birth to a new breed of fighters

Talk about pricing yourself out wow

This is what happens when you have dumb fans spouting bs like, "Boxing is a business" "You're not the one in their risking your health" "Hes the one taking the punches in the head".

See, the moment you start supporting one fighter using these excuses to not fight a guy, you open the flood gates for other fighters to start doing it.

Thanks fans,

You got exactly what you wanted. A sport completely devoid of any kind of pride.

Boxing is a business but it's one thing to want to get paid well to fight Rigondeaux and it's another thing to make a completely unrealistic demand that goes beyond the realms of possibility.
