Brand vs Shabranskyy sparring clip (the guy Ward ducked/declined for Brand)

[doubletake]

Of course your lying behind would come running in here....

Of course he wanted more, he wanted nearly 20 times more.

Shabransky wanted double the available budget that HBO set down for the fight, which was roughly about 300,000. Roc Nation paid the rest out of their pocket.

The Shabransky fight was not possible, Period. Doesn't mean either man ducked. Well done you suckered me into a pointless back and forth

Yep, well said.

"Budget aside, there are very few willing and available fighters to face Ward. That is just fact. As for Shabranskyy, he was offered the fight per Golden Boy and the Ward camp and turned it down. I was told he asked for more than double the available HBO money for the entire bout." -Dan Rafael

Brand was paid $30,000.

So Shabranskyy's management asked for $60,000?

@MonteroOnBoxing @MaxwellBear1 Shabranskyy didnt wanted that 30k payday

@MonteroOnBoxing Basically said "Whoever is tell you Shabranskyy is asking for to much money is lying. Willing to take less than Barrera".

Shabransky wanted 600k.... Don't make it sound like he wanted something reasonable or possible. Let me guess Ward should have taken 250k and paid Shabransky what he wanted right bro??

The Brand fight was terrible but they did go through a number of fighters that were not available for whatever reason, clearly they were happy to settle for a walkover opponent that would cost next to nothing. Is that a decision worthy of scrutiny?..... Hell yeah!! .... but does it mean Ward ducked Shabransky??? Hell No.

I'm not sure about the financial discussions but a fight vs Shabransky might have more views and more budget. Ward's fight before Brand had like 1.5m views which isn't bad.

@T_one_hundred no, I'm not sure who promotes him. Shabranskyy is with GBP & they said the offer from RocNation was absolute low ball joke

@T_one_hundred haha I was cracking up when I saw that $30k purse. I would've liked to see him fight the Ukrainian Shabranskyy...

No.

Golden Boy and Shabranskyy asked for $60,000 to fight Ward on HBO, but the offer was just $30,000.
