What difference does it make to Lara how much money Andrade gets as long as he is well paid?Last edited by Butch.McRae; 04-25-2017, 04:43 PM.

I LOVE Lara, but that is exactly what I did NOT want to hear! I think Lara vs. Andrade is a better challenge of boxing skill than GGG vs. Jacobs. I'll go so far as to say, in a measure of boxing skills, Lara vs. Andrade could only be surpassed by GGG vs. Canelo or Mikey Garcia vs. Lomachenko or Crawford! I have a feeling that it will be Lara vs. Lubin when it's all settled and done! Lubin is from Florida, and the only place Lara can go from star to superstar is Florida! Lara vs. Andrade! STOP PLAYING AND MAKE IT HAPPEN

I bet Andrade wants to take half the total purse to fight Lara. Remember that's why he vacated instead of fighting Jermell a few years ago.

if andrade is acting like he's not the challenger then he's at fault here...champs have earned their darn money..act like a challenger or never become a champion
some of the most hated champion didnt even get 30% of the purse the when they were the challenger...I.E. adonis stevenson..
CHAMPS DESERVE RESPECT PERIOD..or the purse bid split will make u rspect them

one thing i've seen with hyamon is is offer's mando's 30% atthe start of things then he tells them if u dont like it i'll see you at a purse bid..look at stevenson pascal

We all know Lara is the one ducking cause he's the one with the history of pricing himself out and not Andrade.

Originally posted by Eff Pandas View PostDid the purse not get released for that fight? I'm not sure any specific fight purse off hand tbh, but I recall every purse I did see for Lara lately was in the $1Mish range. You could be entirely correct doe & it certainly makes sense with what the trend was/is with PBC.
