    Ward was fighting Kovelev. If Ward was fighting a top P4P mexican how'd you think that fight would do in the US? The two biggest nationalities in the country.

      How much does Main Events think Kovalev is worth?
      I'd say Kovalev is a way bigger name than Miller and Canelo a bigger name than AJ..so

        I know Kathy is having a bit of a tough time with NO Network Deal but did they expect Big Baby Money or More? That is not happening, not for Kolvalev at this stage of his career

              HBO kicked Andrade off their network after his fight with Alantez Fox. All of his exposure has been on DAZN.

              Kovalev has been one of the biggest names in the sport for the last five years.

              The idea that Canelo-Andrade would be a bigger draw than Canelo-Kovalev is laughable.

                it should be close to that since they are using jarred miller as an example... otherwise they will be using even lower examples for an "extremely low offer "...

                  What's laughable is you saying Kovalev has been one of the biggest names in the sport. He can't draw ****, neither can Andrade, but has i said they have the Mexican-American angle to play which always helps in the US.

                    If Canelo moves on to another opponent like any of the dozen fighters all begging for that career payday and Kovalev is stuck fighting who? NOBODY that will ever pay him even half what Canelo just offered him. What will you be saying then? Canelo fighting anyone is the biggest fight of the year. Kovalev needed to fight the number 1 P4P fighter in the world (Ward) and that was when Kovalev was at his peak popularity and the fight had PPV money included all those factors and he still only made 2M. Canelo offering him more then that and more then anyone else can pay him is pricing yourself out the fight plain and simple.

                      I believe 2nd fight he fought Ward for free or almost for no money. Something was f'ed up with the money for Kov. But he fought him anyway

                      If he declines it's prob because it ain't enough money to drain himself and cash out
