Comments Thread For: Farmer Slams Diaz: How The F*** You Gonna Fight In September?

[El_Mero]

If Diaz blows out his opp in Sept, theres no reason why the fight cant be made in November.

Tevin ****** to turn down $2M for Tank if hes free to jump platforms now. JoJo is likely gonna beat him for less money. Go for the big money & the biggest name. Sh^t if Im wrong & he can beat all these mfers than the best move is still $2M for Tank to start a bidding war to retain your services. Fighting a random mfer does nothing for him cuz hes been fighting his whole DAZN career vs random mfers. And fighting a name who youll likely get beat by for less money does less for you more often than not.

Dont get the gamble here by Tevin. Go for the money & legacy fight vs Tank. F#ck JoJo & randoms.

They need to be making that clear with Tevin's team IF thats the plan & it doesnt sound like they have.

Also depends on the dates. If Tevin's got a early Nov. date this might make this less likely to go down too with less time between fights.

True. But then again, Ruiz fought only 5 weeks before he was called to fight AJ. So it COULD happen. Hopefully it does.

As a late sub. I highly doubt Eddie or Tevin wanna be 5 weeks out unsure of who they are fighting. And Andy was late sub material. JoJo isnt. Either JoJo needs a completely bs stay active type of oponent & to be in contact with Tevin's team now or I dont see this happening in Nov. like it seems Tevin is open to doing.

Weird move by JoJo here imo. Can fight Tevin in Nov. signed sealed & deliveried or he can fight TBA in Sept. "to get closer to a Tevin fight'. Something makes no f#cking sense here & with the details Im seeing this far it dont make sense on JoJo's side.

Don't let these folks trick you out of your position, Tevin; you've given Hearn his 4 fights, made your assumed $2m, and now have a standing date offer, with Hearn not tied in enough anywhere to get you a good fight at 130lbs (he'll likely try to push Scott Quig).

Cancio is busy, Berchelt is busy, JoJo Diaz (the biggest name at 126/130lbs that Golden Boy has) is currently, with no one else of interest at the weight.

The way forward is simple.

"$2m is low, but we can see if we can work something out".

Wilder-Ortiz 2 is apparently set now for November 23rd, most likely on Showtime; Davis-Farmer on PPV can still happen in December/January, or you can pair Farmer's tickover with the Wilder-Ortiz 2 re-air to set up Davis-Farmer for early next year (February March).

Farmer is the one that turn down 2m dollars flat out, his deal with Hearn is done but that door isn’t closed shut. So he can fight anywhere he wants. He obviously was making a good payday at DAZN for him to say F u to that lowball (Going by PBC fanatics words) offer. Am sure if they offer him 4m he would take the Davis fight.

no hes not. after his frampton rematch he wasnt availble for other top featherweights; why would he be available for other promoters jr lightweights? dont think so.
