    Andy Ruiz should laugh at $9 million

    He’s getting screwed if he takes $9 million for this rematch.

    Hasim Rahman made $10 million for his rematch with Lennox Lewis. That fight happened in 2001. If you adjust for inflation, Rahman made $14.5 million for that fight in 2019 dollars.

    GGG just made $14 million for fighting Steve Rolls. Ruiz is the heavyweight champion for crying out loud.

    A guy that was making a few hundred thousand at most before Joshua should laugh at 9 million?

    BTW he already signed the contract. 9 million is what he will make unless Joshua is feeling generous.

      He made that money before he was heavyweight champion of the world.

      Rahman didn’t make much money. Then he beat Lewis and made $10 million.

      I feel very confident that Ruiz could just say no to Joshua and make more than $9 million fighting someone else.

        I'm starting to think the thread starter is a Motorcity Cobra alt. Very similar posting style, always on at the same time.

          He should cry as it is him who signed that contract.

            I’m shocked his advisor let him sign on for $9 mil. They were probably so happy with the payment for the first fight and never really thought they would win.

              By the looks of it you don't know what a contract is. He makes nowhere near 9 mil fighting anyone else. He'll e paying Joshua A LOT of money if he doesn't honour the contract. Much more than he will ever make, all that lost revenue.

                  Not if there's an injunction, in which case he'll make $0 fighting no one.

                    Only Haymon and Andy know the details of the contract . Anything else these Hearn fans are spewing is nothing but speculation. Al Haymon knows what he’s doing. Can’t just rely on Hearns word as over 15 people have labeled him a chronic liar
