Heard some estimates as to what Goodman's getting paid (from a trainer of a No Limit fighter), round about $400k USD they reckon. We were wondering if that's enough!

The rumour I heard was $2m. Was floated around Twitter a bit a while back

Honestly, a life lasting beating for $400k. Once coach takes $40k, manager takes $20-40k and taxes he'll barely have a deposit for a 2 bedroom house in Sydneys west...

Not worth it IMO

That's exactly what the trainer said ha ha, buy a house hopefully, it is US dollars so stretches a bit further.

would he have to pay tax on the USD to AUD conversion?

Even if not, it's like 600k and I doubt he fights within 12 months of whatever Inoue does to him. Take out trainer and coaches fees and honestly, I dont blame him ducking

I thought they had 7 figures lined up. Wonder what he got for his fights here, must have been pennies

Absolutely, and yeah not sure about the tax on the conversion or whatever. But yeah if what they're saying is true it's not enough, you'd sort of want to retire on the money you fought Inoue for.

Usually the purpose of a cashout beating is not really needing another one haha

400k won't even cover his medical bills after the beating he's gonna get.

Outside of Inoue is anyone else going to get him $500k or anything close to it?
The weight isn’t stacked with big money generating stars and never has been.

I'm a huge Monster fan, and I believe Fulton and Tapales made $2m each. Nery made 4-6, but the circumstances were much different.
Goodman doesn't have a belt. I imagine the figures quoted may be correct, with Goodman's team getting a majority slice of the Main Event Australian PPVs pumping up what he finally makes.
ESPN will take the international money, Main Event the Australian, which No Limit will get a large slice of.

That’s kind of my point though, if Inoue is the only fight that can make him anything close to that then it is better to cash out/take the chance.
More long term damage is done in sparring, I dare say doubly so when you weigh around 55kgs and nearly everyone you spar is going to be bigger.
Take the pay day I say before Inoue inevitably moves up to FW and you’re left fighting for comparatively pennies again.

Goodwin probably won’t win, he doesn’t have the power but it won’t be the blood bath you all think it will be, probably a 116-112 win for the Champ.

I will be STUNNED if Goodman goes distance, let alone wins rounds

 

[burge13]

Conor Wallace vs. Asemahle Wellem
Justis Huni vs. Leandro Daniel Robutti
Austin Aokuso vs. Lucas Miller
Tyler Blizzard vs. Chengcheng Yang

December 11 in Brisbane. No idea if Kayo

What does Huni get out of these fights. Thats 2 this year that are largely a waste of time

Huni isn't as good as you think is the answer.

undefeated and against someone that has been poor past few.. won't be that surprising.

He isnt the future champ we'd hope he'd turn into but it's still 2 fights way beneath him

Inoue hasn't been poor. He got caught once in 20 fights, he's still completely dominated

Goodman has nothing for him (and was very poor his last outing). No power, slower hands, slower feet, lack of head movement. He isnt going 12 here

Also with that KD, Monster was being extremely reckless at the start of the fight. With it being such a grudge match to the Japanese people, Inoue was far to keen to completely take Nery's head clean of his shoulders in Round 1. From that point on, Inoue dominated every second of the rest of the fight, and gave Nery a savage beat down.

In fact, he's beaten the living suitcases out of everyone he's fought in this division, he's been extraordinary.

Sorry someone who has been what?

Goodwin won't make it past the 6th. He has zero power, The Monster will walk him down and hurt him badly

Doesnt have the power for it to be an option. Don't think I've ever seen Goodman wobble anyone tbh?

That's actually why this seems a mismatch.
Blokes like Nery or Tapales or Donaire you would give a punchers chance.
Against Fulton, there was a chance he might outskill Inoue and take the points, but he was never going to knock Monster out.
This seems more like the Butler fight. Goodman doesn't seem to have anything that can trouble Monster.
I'm not even sure Goodman's ready for this level of fight.
Goodman's best chance is if the occasion brings out the best in him, but this could also lead to Inoue going to another level, and the beating could end up even worse.
