Comments Thread For: Parker Promoter: Hearn is Greedy, Martin Was Paid Over $5 Million!

[chocolatebomber]

Well Parker has a belt too. Shouldnt he get no less than 5mil.......

Martin was paid because he had a belt and AJ didnt have a belt. its not the same situation. AJ is a unified champ with 3 belts

The sooner AJ and his smug **** of a promoter Eddie Two Faced Hearn get KO'd the better it's gonna be for boxing in the long run.

A world champion deserves to get paid more than a mandatory.

Can we all agree on that?

I definitely agree with you on that. It's a unification match it's not like Parker isn't bringing a belt to the table. But in the end I think they'll eventually work something out there's no way around getting the fight done it's about getting the most possible (reasonable) money available. That's just my opinion.

Realism - you ain't worth 40%...
To be fair 20% is low

The Art of Negotiating is that you don't come to the table with your lowest acceptable offer, you come with your Highest Acceptable Offer and then negotiate from a position of strength.

Come in saying you'll only accept 40% and then allow the other person to think they've won when you accept 30% which is what you wanted from the start.

Either way Parker deserves $5-7 Million for a Unification fight like this, especially as it'll have a Rematch Clause incase Joshua loses.

Parker showed with Fury he's a waste of time.

Hearn should be speaking to Wilder ..........period!

“He’s greedy. But we want more money...”

Martin had the heavyweight belt. It was a fair exchange. 5 mil for his title.

dang I guess parker has paper mache for a belt

AJ is gonna stop a guy who's never been hurt let alone down in a fight ? Lol, sure. Did you notice following AJ's career his power hasn't been as effectual as he's risen his competition level, Whyte, Breazeale seven rounds, Takam 10 rounds the guy really should have been able to continue its a damned title fight and AJ was lost for ideas of how to actually stop him, the shell of Wladimir Klitschko 11 rounds, a stoppage when AJ was landing zero clean when he had Wlad on the ropes and AJ had completely emptied the tank himself, as he showed in the round he was dropped the round before he completely punched himself out. Parker has a far superior chin to Klitschko and is far from 41 years old.

I don't see how anyone can say with a degree certainty AJ would beat Parker. In fact I find it laughable.

nice follow up..but I don't think he has faced a puncher like Joshua..and if there is one thing he's shown it that he has a leaky defence..he gets tagged clean here and there against lesser fighters.. Joshua never really tagged takam clean..perhaps on maybe two occasions..where he got dropped.. and where he was wobbled in the tenth before the stoppage..I do agree though if there's one trait all Samoans exhibit..its their toughness..they have excellent Chins..but in the u.k you don't have to knock a guy out clean to get a knockout.. just a barrage of punches against a stunned opponent and its over..which I sometimes support to prevent fighters from getting hurt severely..but like I said its a tough fight for both a.j and Parker.. I agree but i still have a.j winning regardless..parker doesn't know what its like to get hurt which Joshua knows and holds as an advantage.. that's where Parker's character will be revealed plus..its a huge step up from fighting the likes of razvan cojanu to the unified heavyweight champ

Mr. Higgins, meet Mr. DiBella. Mr. Dibella, meet Mr. Higgins. It's that simple!

[AdonisCreed]

Wooooowww Charles Martin got paid 5 MILLION!!!! Lol No wonder nobody has heard $h** from him since that fight lol that brother probably chilling on vacation somewhere lol hahaha Joshua KO'd him with a freaking jab lol haha

[Sickmerch1990]

Thats a low ball offer if its 2.5m like fight should generate about 40m hearn needs to offer the martin deal at least aj should easy win and hope wilder fights ortiz or whyte should lead to a huge summer showdown and the undisputed hw champ
