    He looked like a war prisoner in the weigh in against Diaz a decade ago.
    I can't see a fight happening at 135, likely would have to be 140.

      Ward made almost 2m from fighting Barrera (who was unknown at the time) and Ward was still coming out of a 3 year absence.

      Loma should be getting PAID because he's peaking and you never know when your boxing career is going to end. He'd be a fool to think it's going to be this good for years to come. Pac put up with Arum's shyt and look where he is now. Still fking fighting.
      What has wilder been getting fighting fighting the washingtons and spilkas of this world.....yep you guessed it less than golovkin lol.
      You have turned into a complete plank

        Purses seem fine considering the views it got. Free fights are to build the brand. PPV is where the money is at and Loma is heading there seamlessly.

          Ward isn't the best example because he was grossly overpaid in general. He's a guy who's paydays didn't match his ratings/drawing power, but on the opposite end of the spectrum.

          Feels like loma is worth more than he's getting paid, but that's nothing new with arum fighters.

            If he's getting views, he needs to get paid for that. If he has star power but is not getting the right exposure on ESPN, he needs to go with someone who can get this guy paid.
            If you fight more often, you get paid more.

            What is hard to understand about that? 12 fights in and he's been getting fat checks since fight #2. Do the math.

              him and Crawford both. Arum is dirty. He's just as bad as Don King. The thing is, everyone knows that King is a crook. Arum for some reason doesn't receive the same criticism. He's a horrible promoter. He can't keep his top figthers or even promote them properly. Then he's actually complaining about Haymon paying his fighters too much lol

                They went on to say that the reason its hard to negotiate with arum is cause arum cap (best offer) is less than what mikey is already getting paid right now. That if lomachenko is allowed to cross over to their side for just that 1 fight lomachenko will get his biggiest purse ever but Arum wont allow that its either on his terms on his side or nothing at all.
                no he's not. he made 1 million to fight broner and that was his largest purse. where do you get your info? just a couple fights ago garcia made 375k.

                linares just made as much as garcia ever has so thats matching it right there. loma would not make more crossing over. loma makes 1.5 million. broner and garcia only made 1 million.

                i think what you are talking about are rumors. rumors that garcia made something crazy like 3 million to fight lipinets. this was obvious nonsense cause the same exact rumors were said about spence vs peterson but he only made 1.2 milion in reality.

                the only way garcia made that much is if haymon paid him behind the scenes. if htat is the case that has no effect on loma-garcia negotiations. you can't say "hey my promoter secretly pays me millions therefore i deserve millions more than i'm worth" that would be like double paying him since hes going to get the milions from haymon anyway(if true) it also proves that loma would not make more if he went to fight on showtime since he doesnt have that same deal with haymon(if its true)

                  You are an insecure weirdo. WTF does Wilder have to do with me thinking Loma deserves higher pay? You're getting as batty as juggernaut.

                  He got paid. You don't like it but it doesn't negate the validity of the example.

                  You must have never made real money in your life. Your mentality is, "work harder, not smarter."
                  Good luck with that.

                    I don't like it?

                    indeed, it's an example...but I'm saying something that's an irregularity, shouldn't be used as a measuring stick.

                      he's a baby sized guy, in his 30's, who speaks no english. 1.5 million is close to the maximum you'll ever get off of PPV when your opponent makes a million and you are not a crossover draw.

                      there's nothing wrong with how lomachenko is promoted, he's got a very low ceiling. they'll get him to ppv once or twice, probably against garcia [maybe even against pacquiao,] and that's as far as he'll ever go.

                      just for some context, broner and garcia made less than lomachenko did when they fought each other. both guys made around a million bucks. total purse was less, split for lomachenko was better with him taking home an extra 500k.




                      so yeah... no.
