        Well i think Team Ruiz has now officially passed Team Ortiz on the how many excuses can we think of to avoid a fight against Anthony Joshua. But they still got a lot more excuse making to do to catch up with the amount of Whoppers Deontay Wilder put down for reasons why he didnt beat or should of beat Tyson Fury.

        I swear PBC fighters and their fans are getting more diva like by the hour. Its almost like they dont even want to fight any more.

          $9m purse in a fight worth over $100m when you hold three heavyweight belts.

          Yikes lol. They need to give him at least 15 and that's still a lowball.

            I mean he has zero rights to ask for more due to it already in his contract, but if I was him I would ask for more, you can only try. Doesn’t hurt to. But even 9m is a lot.

              Yeah the rematch was bigger because of him, I agree. But he had a signed contract. Still if I was Team Joshua I would give him another 6 on top.

                  Because he signed a contract agreeing to it

                    I think so too. Too bad the fans keep losing.

                    All I can do is hope the financial issue gets resolved and the fight takes place......

                      Because it was in the contracts initially — how much Ruiz would get for the first fight and the rematch.
