    I believe it was $1.5 million for Loma, $1 million for Linares.

      If true, Loma needs to find another promotion. He's gaining way too much momentum to still be feting 1.5m.

        I was watching a a esnews video and they had robert talking about paychecks etc and they were laughing cause Mikey is making double what lomachenko is right now and he has offers from hearns and ufc etc

        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.

            All bias aside, I don't think that anyone doubts Arum's tendency to be dishonest, plus tough to negotiate with. That being said, the difference between Lomachenko's team and dumbass manny was that 1 is smart... and it ain't the latter mentioned

              That all sounds true. $1.5 is what Golovkin was making when he was fighting unknowns like Monroe. Loma is fighting legit fighters, is in the discussion for P4P #1, has everyone talking, and is making 1.5??? FFS...

              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.

                well lets not jump the gun yet cause loma team still hasnt had the opportunity to prove that they are smart or dumb yet. They first said they wanted mikey about year and a half ago, then they said they didnt want him anymore now they back to they want that fight. So lets see how it plays out.

                Hopefully it gets dont and that arum is cut out the picture, I dont know why people wnat him there when he is just costing his fighters money. Arum fighters are some of the lowest paid fighters in the business now.

                  1.5 is good for a fight that builds your brand, this did that. A lot of casual boxing fans mentioned to me this morning how much they enjoyed the fight and to let them know
                  the next time Lomachenko fights.

                    Loma fights often though, you're forgetting this. Also against competition he barely breaks a sweat against.
