Quillen doesn't make weight, bout is a non title fight

[ykdadamaja]

Ok. After a few years defending Quillin...I'm done. Pete you're on the shit list and frankly son, I hope Lee beats you. Zero excuse for that after long layoff. Effectively he has walked away from two championships. Enough

I gave up on him when he ducked Korobov. Should not have done that.

I don't think he ducked Korobov but let his strings be pulled by Haymon. But it did not look good at all. Still this growing attitude of "Meh, weight limit whatever" just kills me. I def think guys...groomed and steered would be stars...blow weight just looking at the next showcase opportunity. Its not like they arrive at the scales on 1 days notice ffs Quillin had a year to plan, practice and come in on weight. Guys with "a future" just throw money at the fine knowing the bigger payoff is ahead with a top notch performance. They...managers...can afford it. Its a terrible trend now with guys getting a promotional push.

Honestly if a guy does not make weight, I don't think a win should be factor in rankings at all.

Agreed because weight can dictate winning or losing.

If a guy feels doing the work at the last minute will cost him in effectiveness, clearly he does. That's on him and obvious lack of preparedness and professionalism. If a fighter can not-will not make weight...move up. God knows we have enough divisions already.

The fines need to be more hefty 50% of the fighters purse would start to sting

[Ron Swanson]

Not sure if it has been mentioned but the purses are surprising. Not sure how Haymon does this.

1.5 for Garcia
1.2 for Peterson
500k for Lee
500k for Quillen

And if Peterson loses he will lose his title.

I'm surprised Peterson is making more than Quillen and Lee

Haymon is being backed by private equity/hedge fund-type people. He's got to pay the going rate to his fighters when GBP/Top Rank/HBO/Showtime will offer them that kind of dough to fight for them.

This fight would be over in the UK Lee was badly hurt.

[Spicoli]

Damn man bombs away end 2nd

[greynotsoold]

They fight like amateurs. Very bad feet.
