    Quigg's team have said they'd accept 1 million if Rigondeaux offered it to them so you are wrong again. That's called a realistic demand unlike Santa Cruz's. Legacy doesn't pay the bills but that doesn't mean you ask for an amount that doesn't even exist for a fight. How can you not understand the difference?

    I'm not even a Quigg fan, I know he's ducking Rigo but he's actually tried to fight Santa Cruz. Santa Cruz is ducking EVERYONE, not just Rigo.

    And the point you're missing when you bring up a guy like Carl Froch is that he has fought the best consistently for the last 10-15 fights. He's not fighting ***ing cab drivers like Santa Cruz. So think about what you say before you make a damn fool out of yourself again.
    I'll take your word on what Quiggs team said ( 1 million GBP or US $) Ive only seen Hearn straight up say he isn't getting in the ring with Rigo , so that's what I'm basing it on.

    And Hearn making a offer to to fight LSC Right now is irrelevant because he's trying to get of that GB contract hence the recent opponents being sparring partners wait untill hes off before making judgments.
    For all we know Hearns knew that offer wasn't going to be accepted but he could spin it like we made offer to LSC but he's scared just to hype up QUIGG into something he's not.

    I agree with what you said about Froch but I'm just making a comparison about evaluating the risk to money ratio.

    If LSC price to most likely get slaughtered is 3 mil then that's his price. Yeah he's not running towards the fire but neither is anyone else so it is What it is.

      Joe Gallagher said if Rigondeaux's camp can stump up a million then he'll put Quigg in with him...

      It's a horrendous comparison because Quigg or Froch or anyone are not making completely unrealistic demands.

      Once again, a distinction needs to be made between asking for what the fight is worth (Quigg/Froch) and completely pricing yourself out (Santa Cruz).

      If Santa Cruz was asking for 1.5....2 million at a stretch then I wouldn't complain but $3million?!

        Thanks for the vid ( IFilm & Kuugan are the best at what they do)

        So he'd step in the ring for 1.5-1.6 mill US. Do you know what his previous highest payday is ?

        LSC would demand more because he's the bigger name of the 2 and makes more $ then Quigg so of course his demands will be bigger.

        I said in my first post that he probably wouldn't get that much maybe in the ballpark but I don't think it's crazy talk for a guy who ls making 750k fighting cans To want 4x that in a fight he'll probably get destroyed in.

          $3m is out of the realms of possibility for a super-bantamweight fight and Santa Cruz knows that.

              Your probably right about the money not being there, but what do you expect when you get 750k to feast on sparring partners.

                I knew he was just talking S H I T when he said he wanted Rigondeaux & was going to come up with another excuse on why not to fight Rigo. He knows he's not getting 3mil to fight Rigo & that's gonna be his excuse on why that fight can't get done..

                  Then Frampton sparked his countryman out in 2 rounds and Leo cowered behind Haymon when it came time to negotiate.

                  The clown won't even fight Quigg who is the worst "champion" in the division


                  khan wont fight brook, and he is the worst champion in his division. and he represents the biggest payday. what's his excuse?

                  be consistent with your criticism

                    I would fight Rigo for that.

                    Just sayin'...

                      There are enough Khan threads on NSB for you to discuss him. You can't seem to get off his ****.

                      My criticism is consistent. You're comparing apples and oranges you absolute mong.
