Tevin Farmer Turns Down 2 Million Dollar Offer to Face Gervonta Davis

[BoxingIsGreat]

So you agree he should take the easy money, unify for the first time and keep it moving 5 million richer then right? How isn't the best thing for Tank at the moment.

I agree the money sounds good for Davis.

But, with half of it going to taxation, plus the promoter's cut. Will he even end up with 1 mil?

If it happens, it happens.

Lol, that is hilarious, he has to pay promoter's cut and taxes for every fight, would you prefer to do it on $1 to 2M or $5M.

You earn more, sure you pay more, but you still keep more. Whats the alternative, how is getting paid less going to help anything?

I'm thinking, if they are paying Farmer 2 mil, Showtime must be paying Davis at least 8, knowing DAZN offered him 5.

I don't see Floyd promoting for DAZN, or even giving his time. Hearn isn't good enough to promote Davis alone in the States. Otherwise, I think they'd take the fight, if Matchroom was the sole promoter.

Clear. Thanks. The 5 mil includes a cut for MP.

They would have a percentage in their contract with tank. Of course they negotiate it for less if theu and tank wanted to

You really think Showtime are offering Tank $8m? Wilder's purse vs Fury was $4m apparently. No way I see Showtime paying what dazn offered Tank, dazn are overpaying to get him over, Showtime aren't throwing money around like them.

Then Davis should be smart and go to DAZN and Matchroom. I would.

This is a brutal sport. Make your money and leave. After Farmer, maybe DAZN can offer Loma and Davis 15 mil each, for Cinco de Mayo 2020. Even GGG is making 16 mil to fight cans there.

I don't see Davis staying in boxing more than 4 more years.

I agree with your sentiment about making your money and getting out. I just fear that there are too many promoters and advisers in fighters ears with obvious conflicts of interests looking out for their own business and getting fighters short changed.

[BoloShot]

Farmer is a chump, he knows he can't match Davis, never liked his style either.

[Haewood32]

Farmer has no pop, will get wrecked by davis

[RoyJonesJrp4pno1]

They both ducking each other it seems...

This. Both Farmer and Davis have declined offers for this fight that they should have accepted.
