Schaefer had been negotiating with promoter Frank Warren to match Broner with Scotland's Burns, but Schaefer said they asked for more than $1 million, which was way off what was budgeted for the fight.

"Gavin Rees was one of the fighters on the short list of approved opponents by HBO," Schaefer said. "I guess he wanted the fight more since Ricky Burns outpriced himself. I can understand that a fighter would want a career-high payday when fighting Adrien, but when a fighter asks for three or four times his highest payday and wants payment tax-free, then it is simply a way of saying, 'No, I don't want to fight Broner.'

I wouldn't trust Schaefer as far as I could throw him.

Either way BB, you should never take one side as being "gospel" eh? People seem to believe who they want to believe most of the time.

I just believe Fast Eddie, like a right wing American believes pro-gun propaganda

I'd not know who to call a lying twat first out of Schaefer and Allegedly. Probably Schaefer, I'd not end up in court for being a motormouth.

 

[GazOC]

:lol:

Schaefer is def. the safer one to call a lair in the current climate.

A Xmas message

"He don't want to fight me. You know what it is? He's trying to milk the game. He knows after he fights me, he's not going to be shit. Even though he's a world champion, a world-class fighter; I know all of that, but at the end of the day, man, I'm taking this boxing shit over"

You would, however, lose your press credentials.

How many rounds do you all think Burns wins against Broner?

You're assuming that Broner can last the distance.

Tbg, even if Burns doesn't fight Broner, I'd love to see him start fighting in America. I'm sure HBO would gladly take him on board. Fuck that other promoter guy.
