Comments Thread For: Chocolatito: I Won't Be Pressured To Face Cuadras For Low Pay!

Good for Roman. *** HBO

[Teetotaler]

He went through hell in the first fight and really don't want that work again. At this point I believe he's looking for any reason to not take the fight.

This diva knows better. He did the same thing with Estrada. Refusing to rematch both of them. I think he knows that about Inoue too. He knows if he somehow gets by him the people will want a rematch. Which is why he's asking for alot of money to even get a first fight with him.
But seriously HBO lowballing him!? How? They put his midgetass on the map and are even giving him good paydays for a guy in his division. He literally said "oh yeah Cuadras will take the 50k but not me" Well wtf? Your getting paid hundred of thousands while your opponent is barely scraping 50k. Guy is acting like a *****

Danny Jacobs is getting $3 million to face GGG
yet Roman is getting peanuts for being the P4P #1 fighter in the sport.

As usual I agree with you bro. Whenever good money is an issue fear is behind it...

move the hell up.

fight at 122,
fight at 126.

if you are so widely talented and you are around 5'5-5'6

you dont need to be fighting at new york runway model weights.

all those low ass weight classes below 112lbs need to be consolidated to 112lbs.

you want to participate in sports below 112lbs? go ride a horse.

chocolatito is a tiny guy. he is 5'3" and he was a minimumweight for a long, long time. you just don't knw boxing if you expect him tomove up to 126 lbs . those guys walk around at 140+ lbs. hell, some of them are 140 in the ring!

cuadras was a great, great fight for chocolatito. tons of action and very high skill.

they're going to need to get togetehra nd negotiate proper terms. chocolatito also has to recognize that he's not floyd mayweather, and he doesn't command that kind of money. he's tiny, speaks no english, and isn't a big domestic draw and doesn't havea built in ethnic following.

HBO and team chocolatito need to be level headed and not be pigs. chocolatito is the top p4p fighter right now. he should be paid market value for what he brings to the table, and nothing less. he's a heck of a fighter and an asset to the network.

I really hope the fight gets made and think it will.

He was the headliner on one of the four HBO cards to break 1m viewers last year, so he deserves to be paid well
