candyslim wrote: ↑26 Apr 2019, 02:45 No he's quite right. When have Hearn or DAZN ever offered as much as a million dollars to anybody?

They each have a history of being extremely frugal and mean with their offers. Why would anybody even think they'd make a reasonable offer to prevent AJ's US debut / DAZN debut from being a complete flop?

Onetimeonly wrote: ↑26 Apr 2019, 09:00 Ordinarily I wouldn't bother but since it's such a big deal here at the moment I reached out to a source. He said Ortiz did turn down 5 million, this is the same guy that spent a million to buy out GBP after 2 HBO showcases, and Joshua turned down hunter after he accepted because of the style. Ruiz or Bryan.

Tony1244 wrote: ↑26 Apr 2019, 09:26 Amazing if Ortiz really turned down 5 million. What is he waiting for? He's not a 23 year old prospect.

candyslim wrote: ↑26 Apr 2019, 09:15 I think that is very much a case of the pot calling the kettle black. Admittedly I do like Hearn. It's clear he's a fan as well as a promoter, but I certainly don't accept what he says without question, nor anybody else for that matter. What I will say for him is that I don't believe any fighter who's been contractually involved with him, has felt the need to take him to court nor has been sued by him (unless anyone knows any different). Contrast that with his UK competition.

He's a promoter that means you take what he says with a pinch of salt but he is approachable, always gives interviews and answers most questions. Even Miller who is not a great fan it has to be said, conceded that he had no complaints at how he was treated by Hearn, who delivered on everything he promised. I'm interested to know who has caught him out in a blatant lie rather than just vague allegations and finger pointing ?

Your comment about how you doubt Miller was even offered a million reeks of sour grapes or stupidity of cosmic proportions. I suspect you know that very well. Whatever my misgivings about your character traits, I never had you down as a stupid man. Biased, blinkered and spiteful certainly, but not stupid.

Tony1244 wrote: ↑26 Apr 2019, 09:50 I scrolled up and saw you wrote that you'd be surprised if Ortiz was offered a million. Did you mean only a million? Perhaps one of the posts was sarcastic. If he turned down 5 million I certainly don't feel bad for him. Then he does have a bowling ball brain.

Tony1244 wrote: ↑26 Apr 2019, 09:55 Who are you talking to?

Onetimeonly wrote: ↑26 Apr 2019, 09:59 Nothing sarcastic, I genuinely can't see why they would offer that kind of money for a replacement. Overpaying Miller was one thing as they're desperate for us subscriptions. It will never be successful, but they have to try. Whomever the replacement is isn't going to generate what they're looking for and Miller pulling out gives a legit excuse. The second post is I called a buddy still very much involved with the sport. Doesn't make it gospel but I'll take his word over my guessing. I usually don't bother looking into things, I don't care enough, curiosity got the better of me here.
