Is Nicholas Walters The Worst Negotiator Of All Time?

[deanrw]

Earlier this year, when Arum tried to make Loma vs Walters, Walters rejected $550,000. To try to make the fight, Loma even offered him $300,000 from his own purse if Walters beat him, which could have lifted his payday up to $850,000.

Then this tidbit comes out today LOL

Purses for #LomachenkoWalters per Nevada commission: V-Lom $1 million, Walters $300,000. #boxing

lol if all that's true, that is some bad work from Walters and his team

tbh though what bargaining chip did Walters have? The veneer of the Donaire KO had faded and he had done nothing of note since.

There's no way that's the full picture. I refuse to believe it. NSAC purses often paint an incomplete picture.

im a loma fan and he will beast on walters but thats bull**** about him about to give up 300k out his pocket and arums offers are always inflated bs

[GMAN SUPREME]

Loooooooooool

***ed up. But like most of TR guys (Pacquiao) who don't have the olympic background, they gotta come up the hard way.

Walters at this point since getting robbed vs Sosa is probably up against a wall, he'll be determined to beat the **** outta Loma to secure his future. Hopefully he gets paid what he deserves because he is great for boxing, I'd like to see the guy get more push.

Walters should be praised for willing to take a risk for short money. If he wins his stock and pay days will rise. Golovkin should take note.

The only way we can truly judge this if we know that V Lom purse is the same. Could be a possibility both fighters purse got cut..

Otherwise yea he took a 250k L

[HanzGruber]

How is he getting less than the original offer?

Loma can't fill a high school gym how is he gettin a mil?

[DoktorSleepless]

Commission purses often wrong for whatever reason.
