Comments Thread For: Ryan Garcia Furious at DAZN: It's F--ked Up How I'm Being Treated!

[LA_2_Vegas]

You're about to furious on Facebook streams if this keeps up.

[BoxingIsGreat]

you signed that network deal yourself buddy.

I think it's a promotional deal with GBP. He has no direct contract with DAZN. That's what he's crying about here. He thinks he can make more that way.

GBP is actually being patient with him (maybe because of Canelo) when Ryan asks for a direct deal with DAZN (not saying he's wrong). Most promoters would shelf him.

Sounds like a whiny brat. If you are making more money outside of boxing, why are you even boxing?

Same reason Paige VanZant went as long as she did. Some people just love the game. She made WAY more money as a model than she ever did fighting and she went through some hellacious fights - unlike Ryan.

Ryan isn't a world champ yet, hasn't fought a title eliminator yet. And because Linares can't get in the US would be fighting a tune up. Shakur is making a big bump in pay only because he won a world title that's how those tv and boxing contracts work. When you become world champ, when you fight for a title it excecutes clauses in your contract to increase your pay. Before that you are on prospect and minimum guarantee on your contracts you signed.

Shakur beat Gonzalez now has a belt so he's guaranteed more money on his contract otherwise he would be getting paid less by top rank. For example Shakur made only 150K to fight Gonzalez for the world title his last fight. For a title eliminator against Guevara he made only 100K. Before that highest purse was 50K mininum fighting non top 10 ranked opponents like the level opponents Ryan facing now. Shakur a blue Chip prospect with a Olympic medal and Ryan is already making more then he did as a prospect before he started fighting top 10 ranked opponents and even more then Shakur got his first world title. Did Shakur complain? No he got his title and from now on he gets paid.

Before this, Stevenson earned $150,000 for the title fight against Joet Gonzalez.

Shakur Stevenson Purse Per Fight ($400,000) : In 2020, the purse money increased for Stevenson.

This Kid always Crying about something. Hold on lemme get my Violin out!

[Kannabis Kid]

I hope this diva gets knocked out soon he thinks he's more than he's worth little kid hasn't even fought a former world champion yet and he wants to get paid millions for fighting featherweights.

[MrRolltide91]

He needs to be humbled

[bigdunny1]

Being a world champion has A LOT to do with what you are paid. This is a fact.

It has everything to do with it, these contracts are structured. I see people bringing up Shakur who had one of the most lucrative prospect contracts as he was a can't miss stud from the Olympics and there was a bidding war to sign him. And still he only made 150K for his first world title fight and just 100K for his first title eliminator top 10 ranked opponent. This is his first fight now that he has hit world champ milesstone on his contract so his pay just tripled because that's what his contract guarantees him if he becomes world champ. Ryan making 200K before a title eliminator if fights a top 10 guy like Linares or title eliminator his contract probably guarantees half a mil, if he becomes world champ likely guaranteed 1M that's how these contracts work.

He's already paid more then any prospect now he wants to be paid more then world champs when he has accomplished anything.

dude is going to be offering other fighters a flat rate soon.

Gervonta Davis made even less just 75K for his first world title shot in 2017. Made 10-50K before that. And made just 350K for his second world title shot against Cuellar in 2018. He didn't make his first 1M purse until last year, 2 years after winning a world title.

They slugged it out throughout the action-packed sixth round, but Davis, who made $75,000, was doing more damage

Davis earned $350K for his efforts, minus endorsements and Cuellar earned the same in defeat
