    The word ducking is thrown around like crazy.
    Do you know how much made brand for fighting Ward? 30k. Ward easily sell 3-4 times more than Beterbiev so how asking 200-300k is resonable?

      How much would Beterbiev be making? What's Brand got to do with this?

        So they wanted Chilemba at short notice, barely two months off the back of going twelve rounds with Kovalev? Yeah, can't imagine why they weren't jumping at the generous offer.

        Michel is a schyster.

          Well he did 12 rounds with kov he would do good vs beterbiev. Also he is coming off from 2 losses i doubt he will go for a title again, just like pascal.

            Chilemba and Barrera are obviously are bigger names than Brand so they get more money, they've also got more years left in boxing so there are other fights out there that pay better. And the kind of beating you take from Dre and Beterbiev aren't the same.

            So obviously fighting one of the biggest punchers in the sport for less than 200k isn't reasonable, when he can make more, fighting a more beatable opponent

              Because Barrera or Chilemba sell enough to be paid 200-300k.Chilemba was he first one saying Beterbiev was scared to fight him on twitter. hey offered him over 100k since he had "alot" more than his fight vs alvarez which is 75k.
