        She won't take it. She's like Rid**** big ***** Bowe. Will hold on to that 1, 1 title rather than loose, can we blame her ?

          Why would someone ( Adonis ) take 50/50 of a smaller offer ?

          This is just BS offer from Duva and Main Events. This fight won't happen if it has to be on HBO and because Kov is HBO exclusive it's not happening

            Would HBO put this fight on PPV? I mean if they're going to put Golovkin-Lemieux on PPV then surely this would too.

              because the larger offer isn't possible anymore. if 50/50 on hbo is still more than stevenson makes in the pbc why wouldn't he want to take it? because his feelings are hurt? obvously haymon would never take it but stevenson should at least want to take it since the whole reason he signed with haymon was money. same as quillin but then when quillin was offered 1.4 mill haymon didn't let him fight and he only made 500k, but he made it in the pbc so haymon was happy. was quillin? prob not

                Adonis would be dumb to take this from a business standpoint, doesn't he get like $2 million for fighting guys like bika? I doubt hbo is offering $4 million for this, so, there's no way he'd accept $2 mil for the biggest fight of his life that will essentially end his career. He'd need more than this to risk losing.

                  The larger offer isn't available because Duva decided to do whats best for her not Kov. I don't even think this is a valid offer , Is HBO going to let a Haymon fighter fight on their channel , Would Haymon let one of his fighters go to HBO ?

                  Your acting like a fighter looking out for their own best interest and getting as much $ as they can especially when their 36-37 is a bad thing? Adonis will probably make more $ with PBC then if he went over to fight KOv. If Duva cares about her fighter she'd get him the most $. Is Kovs fight in Russia gonna be on HBO if it isn't why couldn't she get Kov to fight Adonis off HBO?

                  I think Quillen made more then 500k his last fight plus I think he got some step aside $ so he probably almost made that 1.4 . It appears Quillen is loyal to Haymon , your probably more upset then Quillen is about the situation.

                    That's the question, in all honesty. HBO would have to commit to that with their bid. PPV could double the fighter pot, but I doubt that HBO is willing to fron the costs.
