[@BuzzLloydyear]

Wade is as toxic as the rest of the community. He just hides it behind his patronizing, moral grandstanding. So he takes good points and turns them in to vitriol, to attack his enemies, or anyone who has any level of opinion that differs from him. Or even just to further promote himself. Everything Wade says has high levels of Agenda. That's why the only negative things he has said against Jake since his work with MVP, has been that they should PROBABLY have allowed promotion for the misfits event in his last fight, but not Prime. He recently ragged on Logan for inquiring why Jakes team banned any mention of Prime. However, can't see how it could be a problem with his relationship with the Update drink whilst working on Prime sponsored events. Which was not even at the level of banning Update, they literally mentioned once, that he was affiliated with a rival drinks company. Old Wade come out fighting back asking what it has to do with anything. I guess it only matters, when it's not lining his own pockets, am I right? Mams is a cunt of the highest order. However, at least he is quite open and forward with it. Wade is exactly the same, riddled with agendas and biases, but he tries hiding it behind the moral grandstanding. Wade is a hypocrite of the highest order, who gaslights people on twitter, picking the weakest arguments and publicly roasting and then humiliating them. So that he can feel good and show his army, that he is right because the "opponents" don't have a strong argument. He ignores anyone who raises a good point. It don't serve his agenda to highlight the negative opinions that have a point. He is a gas lighting, manipulative worm. Heaven forbid anyone has a negative opinion of him though!

The problem with this situation is when slim is out here talking a lot of smack to other fighters(which is fine as it is part of the fight game) and saying I want 165 . But when u get offered a big fight with a big name and you turn it down on the biggest card . Honestly I dont think its money . I think the money isnt the issue its the opponent.. I mean its Salt papi and I get it he is tough but I would respect slim more if he just said "Im not ready yet". I doubt its the money .He is just lying to himself then .

Idk man I'm kind of with Misfits on this one. Slim made so many demands for the Papi fight, then just kept demanding more. It's practically a mirror image of Fury v Usyk. Slim wanted Papi to come down to a weight he didn't think he could make, and when Papi agreed he started demanding pay he knew Misfits couldn't give him. I think it's pretty damn obvious what he's doing, he's trying to avoid this fight without outright saying it.

[@thamsanqafuyane5993]

I have to agree with Misfits if you look at slim’s behaviour since misfits 004 you can clearly see the guy doesn’t want the Papi fight. After Misfits 004 when Slim knew people were gonna call for the Papi fight he conveniently drops the belt and goes down to an easier division at 165 where his biggest challenge would be Jay Swingler(before he retired). He knew how stacked 170-175 was so he opted to go back down for easier fights. Misfits then accommodate him by making Papi drain himself and go down to 165 and now his excuse is his purse.

[@JG124_]

Idk dude, I kinda see where you're coming from because it kinda does feel like Slim calls people out but doesn't always back it up, but I think the main reason why Slim dropped to 165 is because his natural weight is around 165. in the 170-175 pound division he was fighting against guys who were naturally way bigger than him after rehydration.

I personally like the transparency from misfits. It shows that they're actually trying their best to give us the fights we want. If the fans are the most important stakeholder, then it's only fair that fans are in the know. These aren't pro fighters and this isn't a serious sport after all. All the ducking, pull outs and egos are a much bigger threat to the scene than fighters being worried that they may be exposed by misfits for being slimey in negotiations. Where else will they go? kingpyn? global titans? wett promotions?

That's not really true, kingpyn and mvp are also on dazn so fighters can go there if they want. Slim has already hinted that he is going to mvp.

[@j.j.j3517]

I disagree with how Mams and Ksi have spoken about the situation on twitter (it's that problem they have with controlling themselves). BUT, I also do agree with them. The misfits council made this fight a mandatory. There was no debate to be had about opponent because of that. Slim said hed do it at 165. Salt agreed to cut the weight. And theres one thing which you didnt really talk about that could be detremental to Slims whole argument, and that's KSI saying "Slims gone missing." To me, that sounds like Slims team went silent. I mean, unless JJ is just saying shit with no sibstance, i'm not sure what else it could mean. If Slim went dark until after the deadline, its kinda hard to explain why he woukd do that. You could be right and this could all be about money, but the way you negotiate your pay is by negotiating, not going dark.

[@coIdcrow]

Agreed, Mams is unprofessional with this stuff on Twitter but it feels like even if we give Slim the benefit of the doubt he hasn't done much beyond tweeting stuff to contest what they're saying.

Okay but after what ksi did to Wade we really shouldn’t trust any information that comes from Ksi’s side at first. I know that suxx cuz JJ is loved by us all. But yeah, I always double check now. I suggest everyone does. We know slims side. He states that he HAS negotiated and wanted a bigger purse. Ksi stood on his offer so slim waited for a counter, which was followed by crickets from the ksi team. That’s the info I’ve gathered from all sources. There was no silence. They gave the demand and ksi took to Twitter with his response. That’s the only truth we have so far. Anything else is a guess, which should be resolved for us immediately.

The fans would want to know WHY fights arent happening and unfortunately yes saying its because they couldnt agree on slims purse, while showing that the number was very much reasonable i think is fine, however coming from Mams yes thats not great. But everyone especially the small council are in agreement. Mams never said slim ducked, he just said he didnt accept and it would effect his stock. Everyone else has their takes on it. Cmon guys, we know fighters can say they dont wanna accept the fight or money but slim has said in the past its not even about the money, he came for Gib when Gib didnt want to accept $200K, he outed that sum too like, i think opinions saying slim is ducking is very fair tbh.

[@dodong_insane675]

why tf wade always think hes right? what if ksi is a ceo? he still a influencer, a boxer, he can say what he want because that still a promotion and publicity

[@deathswitch2404]

Why are we acting like being paid a minimum of 150,000 with a 50,000 bonus for winning for a fight is in anyway a small amount of money? I really dont understand why you are putting more stock in Mo's opinion on the matter too .. how is his opinion relevant? Misfits has the right to devalue their own fighters if he went MIA.. not refusing the offer.. MIA until 2 days after the deadline, you dont. This is going to be the biggest card ever in this scene with more eyes on it that ever before against a prospect that pro boxing eyes are on. Would i have preferred it stayed private? Sure. All Slim had to do was answer the phone when they tried calling him on deadline day.

Im with misfits on this one. Its the biggest card and if you dont want to take the offer than they will give it to someone who does. Slim was asking for an amount he isnt worth so they decided to find someone else. And as foe kt being public slim was the one saying he needs to be given the amount he wants so he brought up money aswell. Lets not be bias here.

Slim would've never sniffed 150-200k opportunities without this scene, he's being way too greedy and it won't work out well for him. Especially in this scene he should just take it, losing doesn't really matter as much as it does in pro boxing as long as you have a good performance.

Slim keeps calling out KSI in all the misfit events. So why would he not get involved? Not taking Salt Papi's fight only shows that he is 🦆

[@Mikkeru]

I've agree with Wade so far until this one. Why does he feel this strong about Slim being seeing as ducking? As much shit Keem says, its pretty accurated when he argued that Slim isn't worthy 200k even tho he is offered that. And that he was saying thankful left and right at misfits then suddenly demanding more money. Compared to other things Wade has critiqued, this one is pretty stupid to hold that hard on.

[@thebreakdownSW]

The problem isn’t the public saying that or Keem, it’s the promotion saying it, reinforcing the public to take heat off themselves and throw it on slim.

[@Mikkeru]

​​@zeroyeetsTrue "kinda", but thing is that the money topic overwrites everything. What Slim wants is Money, simple. He is offered more money that he is worth so it seems unacceptable to demand more.

Publicly shaming from the organisation is the bad part, people can talk their shit but when the heads of Misfits are calling people out, people would be worried to associate for their own brand

[@JonathanVegaa]

I understand what you guys are saying but I actually agree more with Mams and KSI on this one Slim really has no pull I doubt he could sell out a 5k capacity venue tbh or any sort of ppv taking the money in arguably the biggest card in history where you can get huge sponsors and if slim actually shows that he’s legit and KOs Papi he shoots himself into superstardom with that being said if Slim wants to stick to his price good for him but I doubt anyone else gives him much more than misfits was offering he should’ve taken the kingpyn offer never be loyal to a company always look out for yourself

[@sanch3z]

Slim needs to stop chilling with Adam Saleh. Adam ALWAYS gets into controversies and brings Slim down. From the plane incident, to the transformer girl incident to now. Slim is just following Adams playbook to overvalue himself

[@kelvinkid9565]

17:10 that's cap

[@brandonadam7167]

I do believe that Misfits is incredibly unprofessional. I mean hell, the way how Mams has carried himself in Misfits since the beginning was very childish; firing Wade on the spot, challenging Joe Weller to a parking lot brawl, etc. They need to be more professional when it comes to negotiations instead of waffling on Twitter. But on the other hand, I do appreciate the fact that they are pressuring Slim and questioning his credibility as a fighter, a dude who believes that he's one of the best Boxers despite fighting journeymen and nobodies his entire career (with the only exception being Temperr). If the small council wasn't so vocal about the situation, then the vast majority of people would agree that Slim is not as good as what he paints himself to be.

[@oliverbrooker8351]

Anything over 150K total fight pay is a lot for Slim.

[@jvkayy]

Wish that the council could just be less vocal in the public eye about negotiations and etc because not only it is bringing attention but potentially ruining the fighter's credibility when we don't know the full picture yet. Yes they can try to set up matches, but when one fighter isn't agreeing to negotiate with the fight, you move ahead and go with scouting out the next potential opponent. Giving light on these negotiations seriously damage the fighter's image for the future.

[@mrb1051]

i mean it's a good thing, now other promotions will know that slim is asking for more than he's worth (using money to duck salt pretty much)

[@mathewholman927]

yeah but lets be honest misfits dont really care about any fighter that’s not ksi.

Trying so hard to find that gotcha moment. Saying “KSI just said take or it leave it” when he edited it and you even acknowledged that lmao. Yet you still say “this tells me misfits are offering take it or leave it deal. And talking about Slim not fighting on Kingpyn, it wasn’t because he wanted to be loyal to misfits, it was because he didn’t want to fight it. He got called out when they were looking for replacements, he posted a video mentioning that he didn’t wanna do it because of ramadan and stuff. Kenny and Elle are signed with misfits and they were allowed to fight on Kingpyn. Like what? Baseless argument.

keemstar said ( now it is keemstar so take it with a pinch of salt) that the offer was 150k and winner gets bonus 50k so equates to 200k. So this does explain why slim said he wasn't offered 200k on twitter. Again Keemstar said this I don't know how he knows I mean I am guessing he knows because he is the happy punch guy and salt is a happy punch fighter but yeh. He said this in a fredtalks interveiw btw.

misfits is in a lose lose situation. they try and make the fight happen and since slims ducking, if they don’t put pressure on him and it dosent happen, they blame misfits. then when the do put pressure on him, they are devaluing their fighters. it’s no winning

[@asmodeus1634]

Idk if you read the comments but I have a view opinions on what you said 1. You're saying KSI is playing both sides as a fighter and a CEO like that's new information. In other misfits events KSI even mentioned how he's "putting on different hats" meaning how he can switch between being a fighter and CEO. It's not 2 faced if he said those things from the start and didnt switch up who he is. (Btw not calling you 2 faced just explaining what 2 faced is) Misfits is his so I don't see the problem of him having input in anything that goes on. 2. Like you said money talks is a touchy issue and you're tweet pretty much explained everything. BUT fighters can also be delusional in thinking they're worth more than they actually are which stops fights from happening due to ego. So by bringing their business public they can use that as a means of manipulation and pressure to get the fighters to fight. In this case everybody thinks slim is scared which could damage his reputation forcing him to fight proving people wrong. From a business standpoint its a good idea to persuade and put pressure on fighters like this so the viewers and fans can get the fights we want. Side note: slim has fought on the last few misfits cards and misfits paid him so obviously they know how much he got paid in other fights that he did on misfits. Meaning misfits has more say in potentially what slim is worth cuz they've been the ones paying him so they know what he brings in. Let me know what you think on my thoughts if you read this.

I understand the frustration of the fans and of misfits, but I don't think giving a person an ultimatum to fight someone is really fair on anyone. They basically chokeholded him into "fight Salt Papi or f**k off". This has been done to noone, and with all due respect to people like Leon Wills, he has previously himself said to let Deji get ready before he can fight people like Salt when Deji has more experience in the game than both of them combined. Another point is that promoters of Happypunch (Keem) seem to have a good tug on the strings of how misfits is run, so it is unsurprising that Salt Papi is being thrown at someone. I completely agree with arrogance on paychecks from Slim's end, but I genuinely think this is just frustration from him into being cornered into a forced fight. All the love, and I hope this gets settled peacefully between Misfits & Slim.
