Suprised at how much Bud is making since he probably didnt sell one ticket. Around 1.5M for this fight looks like Peter Nelson is being more strict

I wonder what Arum was asking HBO for Lomo/Walters?

If you're a fan of Wilder and Canelo, you should be the last person harping about mismatches.

Bud usually sells out,, not sure where this one is at, but crawford has sold-out his last few fights, albeit in his hometown of omaha....

Either way, you can tell this is a total mismatch.. Lundy has a punchers chance and thats it,,,,, I don't mind a fight like this for bud if he stays active and comes right back in may/june

This is at MSG, Verdejo and the local fighters the driving point here IMO. Terrence got his own people though.

Damn! Lundy only getting $150k to co-headline a main event at Madison Square Garden. He's moving up in weight and he was the 4th choice after Pacquiao, Postol, and Herrera. He should've been able to command more money. Who else was Crawford gonna fight?

IM CONCERNED about Lundy hes about to get a asswhooping for only 150k

He's a journeyman with 5 losses... $150K is about right. I doubt they looked for many opponents. They probably asked him first and he said yes.

If he wants to increase his value then he needs to start winning high profile fights.
