    No shlt it's less but like I said haymon wasn't gonna let someone especially jays get his guy when he's paying all this money to nbc. Nbc exposure>>> HBO sho exposure

      And a fan of boxing is supposed to not like this fight? WTF!
      The fight is what it is, it's ok. Nothing more. But if you know the history of it, the fight is ******. A guy refighting for a title he willingly gave up. And he didn't give it up for a bigger fight and now is coming to get it back, he literally gave it up, let two other guys fight for it and now he wants to fight the winner for it back.

        and the current champ is willing to fight him for the NBC exposure. I think this is bigger. Not bigger pay but bigger. No issue with it at all. Let the best man win.

          So he gives up a belt and a career high payday, "for better opportunities in the future"? And what was that future? Get paid less than the payday you originally was supposed to get and its for the same belt too.

          "Al Haymon doing a good job doe. Free boxing on tv doe"

          I just wanna thank al haymon, GOD, my promoter..... blah blah blah

              Back in early 2012, Quillin was barking for a fight with Andy Lee. Lee struggled in 2011 with McEwan (another come from behind KO) and Bunema, and despite controlling Vera never could put him away. Quillin destroyed McEwan right after Andy KO'd Craig, but Pete acted like he outshined Andy and wanted to capitalize on what he though would be easy work. Lee went on to fight Chavez and Quillin the unretired Wright, and now here we are years later...

              Andy looks vulnerable most of the times but I think he handles Quillin's style very well. He has superior timing & punch placement, knows how to handle being hurt (which I think both guys will be during this fight). I have a feeling Booth is grinning from ear to ear about this fight.


              My greatest fear outside of Quillin KO'ing Lee, is Lee signing with Haymon (could you really blame Andy?)

                    So al haymon advised quillin to give up his belt and a career high payday vs korobov for "bigger and better opportunities", but now is fighting andy lee for that same belt and LESS money! and you are ok with that? Yup only in nsb.
