Duva says this like every other month.

HBO isn't going to back you in a purse bid so I don't get why you are still talking as if you are going to come to an agreement.

You are either new to boxing or just plain gullible.

Just not very bright but biased. Terrible combination.

the huge ward payday. we all know ward brings in the big bucks. could we see a new ppv record for ward-kovaelv?

The only person who makes big money when Andre Ward fights is Andre Ward.

Hey what's up hata!

Promoter: Hey, whatever happens it's not our fault.

East Coast: Well that settles it, it's not the promoter's fault

wrong. remember when he made quillin turn down 1.4 million and he fought for 500k instead? he does what he thinks is best for him and if his clients lose out on money so be it. he won't let them fight on hbo even if it is the best offer.

Quillin turned down that payday because it was against someone promoted by a PBC competitor . In order to continue to receive handsome pay days , Quillin can't just go out fighting fights that empower the competition .

What's best for a fighter financially is not measured in one fight purse. Danny Garcia was 19-0 and had never made over $12,000.00 in any fight , then signed with Haymon and now million dollar purses aren't uncommon. U do the collective math .

So you're acknowledging that Haymon is happy to work against the best interests of his clients just so he can spite rival promoters?

Breaks ppv record of 97k?

I am not sure Ward Kovalev does more than 97k. For real.
