    But this guy is so heavily reliant on percentages because his argument falls down with every other criteria. It’s up to him to justify using percentages like that, but so far, he hasn’t
    As if almost every other big fight doesn't get discussed in terms of the split and/or percentages.

    Just amazing the mental contortions some of you are attempting.

    It's hilarious really...

      That's about the long and short of it... any fighter's entitled to try to get more, and sometimes it works out... if it doesn't though they got no-one to blame but themselves.

        And what about if this fight fall through ?
        It’ll be a long time before he comes close to making 1.2 million
        He is literally shooting himself in the foot
        Greener pastures if he takes and wins this fight

          Yeah, I wonder if Lopez is 100% confident, cause if he was, he would know that a win propels him to star status and huge paydays ahead. The problem with the bully mentality that he exemplifies is they often use that persona to cover up insecurities and maybe the reality is that this is what Lopez is thinking in the back of his mind. Maybe he has doubts, as many bully-types have.

            I totally agree
            After making so many excuses I just can’t see what else it can be
            Seems like he made a cheque he can’t cash in
            Papi gonna have to start pedalling dope again if this goes out the door
            He will be judged and criticized harshly for this

Sadly, nobody can get access to what's going on inside the PBC mystery house; negotiations are not publicized, nobody knows who rejected this and that fight, which I'm sure there were many, and so here we are there's nothing to discuss but non PBC things.
              All this whining and you’re the one with the agenda. Who mentioned pbc? A lot of you are worst than women.

                If Lopez stands on his square, doesn’t take the lowball offer and top rank doesn’t make the fight then why would he be the fool? Dude just turned 23 and is a champ himself. He has the world in front of him. Loma has stated that his goal is to unify but he can’t do that without fighting lopez. If loma doesn’t fight lopez then who is he going to fight that is going to matter? He’s already 32 and will be 33 in 6 months. He already ducked haney himself. Time’s running out.

                  They are some boxers that don't know the meaning value. Everybody has to get a pay cut. No site fees, no live gate, no beer sale, hot dogs or whatever overpriced food. 1.2M is a lot of money specially for a non established star. Probably the idiot would sat out this fight and get nothing. He is young so he can make this money and even if he lose, he can rebuild his career. And he is fighting the best at his weight, no shame in losing, imagine if he wins.

                    You're a ******. Teófimo is a champ. His minimum is 1 mil a fight. If arum doesn't keep him happy, al Haymon would be more than happy to pay him.

                      He'd probably make about that if he fought Tank, Haney or Garcia and close for any unification fight or a fight against a big name at 140.
