How much is hbo paying 3M again? Hbo should tell ward to fight for 1M because he doesn't deserve more (not yet)

[Hougigo]

A crazy low offer wouldn't be surprising

Is Ward still getting $2 million per fight? I couldn't find the details on the new 3 fight deal

[Eastcoast]

Ward's going to be out another 9 months....

HBO doesn't pay the fighters. They buy the fight. Roc Nation has to pay Ward his contractual purse and pay Barrera. Barrera's purse will depend on how much HBO is offering for the fight.

soooo barrera is big money? why do i get the feeling abel sanchez doesn't want any of his fighters going near ward.

I'll wait to hear it from someone else. Sanchez is probably the most unreliable source of info in the biz. Perfect example, all the things he said on behalf of Genady that created so many problems and expectations.

he also said ward don't bring any money and isn't a draw, so idk what he was expecting the offer to be or why he's talking about offers. barrera aint no big money.

Ward has become irrelevant.
