    And, what does that have to do with getting paid???
    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.

      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.
      I think that was because of a potential Pacquiao fight, obviously they would want the money and the name. Manny's largely passed it, but still dangerous

        hey its a dog eat dog business the boxing world. Im all for fighters trying to get the biggest payday they can and moving up. So yeah, I dont wish lomachenko no harm but if he ducks he ducks, if he takes teh fight props etc etc, I just call it how I see it.

          ESPN broadcast.
          Not on PPV.
          Unfortunately, Loma's not a Yankee or Mexican.

            Pac would be dead going in the ring at 135 lbs the day before .
            He looked like a war prisoner in the weigh in against Diaz a decade ago.

              If you watched the Loma doc it didn't seem like he cared about pay.

                Why do you guys have so many excuses for the dude not getting paid? He's a rising star, possibly the best in the sport, who is fighting known opponents. If he's on ESPN, that's his promoter's problem and he should find someone who will get him what he deserves. There are cats in this sport getting paid more for less.

                  Lomachenko is getting paid much as Pacquiao when he fought against Diaz, there's nothing wrong with the purses.

                    Where is Mikey getting his giant purses from? When he fought Broner, they each got 1 million.

                    Before that against Zlaticanin he got $375,000.
