Probably so

I think your right though, possibly hang the gloves up but hopefully he's worth a few hundred K from previous bouts?

Tazi, agree, lacks the commitment and some skills, at his level now, but this could turn out to be a fair match

That's a lot of dough but it's hardly life changing money, I know when lee Purdy went to the states to fight for a world title his purse was apparently around the 300k mark, by the time everybody had a bit and he paid his expenses he was left with 60.

Potential good fight next week. Dave Allen vs. Lucas Browne, there will be a KO

I like Dave Allen, proper hard lad, always a bit short for me and feel he could be a lot better, let's hope he is

Wilder and Joshua outings soon. Joshua in the USA, promotion for a Fury showdown?, I hope so

Around £250,000 I had seen, $300,000 ???

Your right though, deserved the payout for me. Linares boxed Crolla's head off and he had previously then lost to Lomacenko so you could guess where this was going. Linares took the belt off Crolla, lomachenko then took it of him

Crolla is a game kid but was never going to be world class, got what he deserved for his effort a big pay day. Time to hang up the gloves I'd say, out of interest what sort of money would he have got for the fight ?

Crolla got his dream for me, the big fight. The truth is he is not at the same level even prior to the fight we knew that. And if we are talking TOP level fighters he's not up there and never has been

Lomachenko, great fighter but a lot of hype for me too because he has not exactly fought the greats or any real names. He's 31, with a 13 win, 1 loss and 0 draws and his loss was against a Salido who was at the end of his career, shadow of himself, and did a job on him.

He needs some real big fights to put his name down in history and at 31, near the end of his career, with 14 professional fights he's never gonna get there for me if we're talking “greats”

Garcia is the fight for me. And to be honest I was disappointed against his performance agains Errol the boring truth Spence who put him on the end of the jab all night. That should be a good test

Sadly it was to big an ask ..........Lomachenko was levels above but the ref was **** and should have stopped it in the 3 rd to save unnecessary punishment in the 4th rubbish ref

Hope he does well , his dad was a half decent fighter and coach, he had extremely bad luck and lucky to be alive.

No doubt he will but what stands him in good stead is that he's always been very fit whose always looked after his body.

He knows the craic regards pacing himself as he had over 90 fights as an amateur.

I guarantee he will get tired when he steps up the rounds and faces better opponents , you have to be a different fighter when fights get longer, good luck to him hope he does well.
