Comments Thread For: Team Andrade: Lara Turned Us Down Twice; Never Talked Money

[brettWall]

Actions speak more than words. If Andrade travel and took low money to be the mando, that speaks volumes.

Unlike Lara that is always promoting himself with other fighters names when they are signed to fight someone and then he fights a no hoper

Yep, that's what Andrade's managers wanted to convey. They went all the way to Germany to take a fight where they probably netted zero dollars, but took it anyway.

The network shills for Haymon

Exactly! It's real simple... ask the network. Who asked for the fight? Who turned it down?

It's clear as day that Haymon doesn't want to risk his fighters against another top fighter from another promotion. Everyone with brains knows Hurd is an easy win while Andrade is a 50-50 fight. These Haymon nuthuggers are truly pathetic. The sheer ignorance is disgusting how they are destroying boxing with these squash matches Haymon wants.

Haymon

If he was with Haymon instead of the morons he is with now the fight would already be signed. No sympathy when you put yourself in that position

Haymon is nothing but a manipulative con artist. His contracts are slave contracts on the back end. Any fighter fighting for Haymon is going to fight once a year and be irrelevant.

So, what about Haymon letting Danny Jacobs fight GGG on HBO ppv where Haymon had no leverage etc?? What about Haymon flying his heavyweight prize fighter over to Russia??? Even tho Povetkin failed a drug test days b4 the fight - Wilder still was present....What about Errol Spence flying over to the UK to fight Kell Brook on a Matchbook promotion??? Just to name a few off the top of my head

[Metho_4u]

Which one???

Andrade is who I'm speaking of

[daggum]

Erislandy Lara: $1 million

Delvin Rodriguez: $140K

[satiev1]

The question is when will Lara actually step up and fight someone with a pulse?

[Freedef]

Fighting for 75 000 is lil bit sad story smh

[al-Xander]

I don't expect Espinoza to throw a PBC fighter under the bus. We'll probably never know how things went. Lara probably wants more than $1 million for this fight. Espinoza may well cave in just like he did with Berto in the Porter fight, then get 200K in the ratings. Keep on throwing away money doe.

It's Lara's first meaningful fight in years. It's doubtful he would accept anything less when he's been getting $1 mil per fight fighting nobodies.

Any update on this fight (Lara vs Andrade)? So Lara wants Hurd, but is Hurd amenable to fighting Lara?
