    Show me where Farmer is making 500k for one fight. And Tank being a future PPV? What’s that got to do with now? All the things you posted here applied to Wilder when he was using Joshua name. So why aren’t you defending Farmer here like you were with wilder?

    Davis = Joshua, Davis is a “future PPV”, Joshua had current PPV money/numbers, Farmer would never make much for one fight? You said, when Wilder didn’t make 15m for one fight when he turn down all those offers, Farmer might get his own Tyson Fury in future, he doesn’t sell tickets you say, well Wilder doesn’t sell tickets in those days.

    So why are you criticising Farmer again?

      Now Farmer is making 2m upward and he just got offered 2m and you want to deny that is a lowball offer, going by that Wilder theory... this offer from Team Tank is a lowball offer.
      Not going to respond to this post as I addressed everything in another post to you on this.

        Farmer-Tennyson might be an area where the interests of Matchroom and DAZN don’t fully coincide. Hearn has signed Farmer to a four-fight deal potentially worth $2,000,000 plus what Matchroom pays to Farmer’s promoter, Lou DiBella. That’s well above market value

        You really think DAZN is paying Farmer 2M a fight for being a UC fighter?

        Now, you are more than welcome to post any article or tweet or anything that indicates that Farmer is making 2M a fight.

        So since you originally responded to my post regarding Farmer. I'm not criticizing the man at all. I fully understand him wanting a multi-fight deal with DAZN over facing Davis. However, all I said was in no way is 2M offer to Farmer a low ball offer. And I believe that. But if he can get more for the Davis fight from DAZN, then it is his right to request that from Ellerbe/SHO.

          If Farmer is making 500k against the low level fighters on DAZN then 2m is a Lowball offer. Like I said before unless a fighter is getting exactly what he wants then every offer is a Lowball offer. The precedence has been set. A lot of posters on here supported that.

          Farmer himself has said multiple times that he makes 2m upward per fight and am taking his words for it. Just like people do with whatever they claim Wilder makes.

            Farmer has really said that? So in interviews or tweets? I'll try to find that, but I've never seen that mentioned once.

            And it's hard to believe Hearn is paying 2M to a fighter that can't draw and is fighting on mainly undercards. But hey if he's getting 2M? More power to him!

              Farmer aint no one special. Tank is, Loma is, hell, id be interested in him fighting Santa cruz. Tanks probably too big fir him though.
              Tired of seeing tank blow out everyone. Test yourself

                Live interview, they ask him about Tank, he was like f uck tank, talked about how he fights for a couple of millions per fight and how he doesn’t need anyone for a payday, how he invests his money and isn’t bothered buying rubbish to show off his wealth.

                If Team Davis are going to offer him 2m then we all know they would offer more, the fight is been talked about and like Farmer said them two have sold this fight for the last 4 years, the offer would go up.... Just like it did for Wilder.

                  If he truly is getting 2M per fight (don't buy that), then that is DAZN's WORST investment by far. Well, maybe second behind giving GGG 15M per fight. But at least there is hope the Canelo trilogy gets made and DAZN will be happy with the amount of subscribers they get for the fight.

                  But paying 2M to a UC fighter? Interesting....very interesting.

                  And maybe the fight does get bigger where he gets a better offer. But that is unlikely since he has no fan base and his performances are never going to fan friendly. Wilder vs Joshua was THE fight consisting of two power punchers who were undefeated fighting for the HW championship of the world. Davis vs Farmer is not that....But maybe Farmer betting on himself and the fight becoming bigger pans out and he ends up getting the type of pay day he is looking for. Personally? As I stated, he is gunning for a multi-fight deal with DAZN. That he should get regardless of getting the Davis fight or not.
