    That's $2.7 million in 3 fights right there.

    And think about this now, we are comparing Keith Thurman, an American born, English speaking, charismatic fighter in his 20s to a Cuban defector with no home country behind him who didn't enter the pro game until late in his career. And $4-5 million is not chump change. What has Abner Mares grossed in his career?


    I did you a favor Now show me your source that Ward received no other comparable offers.
    Dude it's common knowledge that Roc paid more than market value for Ward. When you start a business and want a top guy to be the poster boy. You got to pay whatever it takes to get that person even if it means paying more than markets value. Common knowledge guy, business 101. ROC did what they had to do. Ward prolly got offers from other company's. I'm not saying he didn't but Roc overpaid his market value to get him. Fact.
