Comments Thread For: Golden Boy Prez: Arum Must Be Flexible To Make Loma-Linares

[TreJac]

So Top Rank gives Golden Boy a call & offers Linares $1.2 mil to fight Loma after most people said they would never do. Top Rank, Loma/Linares, and Linares co-promoters all agree except Golden Boy refuses the May 12 date! Linares and his co-promoters know they will not make $1.2 mil fighting anyone else and by far his biggest payday of his career. Golden Boy are not doing whats best for Linares. Golden Boy needs to accept the May 12 date.

Prime Don King > arum

Three dates don't work for them. That isn't unreasonable.

espn picks date.It looks like GB doesnt want Linares to go to ESPN.

And why would he?? HBO is offering more $$$. And is competing against GGG/Canelo replay and whatever fight after is on. How much you think Linares is getting offered??

This was all smoke and mirrors. Like someone said earlier. This was to say see we tried and then dump a sht fight on the fans.

Arum is flexible: Beltran or Easter are the alternatives. Who has GB?

I think it's beyond reasonable??? Plus HBO offered even double the amount which would of given Linares a LOT more $$$$

??? Your Math doesnt even add up??? How the heck are they going to pay Linares 1.2 and Loma at least that on a fight that ESPN is paying 1,000,000 for???
