    Al Haymon's services is what got Mayweather this far, so every penny spent on him is definitely worth it.

    Ha ha , it depends, do you think beating Ortiz is worth 18mill????

    If I were Al Haymon I would be asking for double.

    He's has more money than the Black population of Grand Rapids do combined, so I'm sure he doing fine, but I'm glad to see such concern for such an exorbitantly wealthy guy like him, it would terrible if he got 17 instead of 18 million, how would he survive.

    Floyd is a degenerate gambler who over spends and asks for loans before his fights to keep up his destructive lifestyle. Pac does the same thing with Arum.

    Floyd will be broke maybe 5 years after his retirement, and when I say broke I mean living in his moms house eating Maruchan.

    what is 6.6 million dollars compared to 25 million? it's peanuts. it's only 26.4%, not 30%

    He doesn't pay Haymon 20%. He pays him maybe 2-3% plus a share of the ticket which Haymon resells. What Floyd really does for Haymon is make him powerfull and get everyone to sign with him, that's where the real $$ comes in because he does take 20% off the other guys.

    so pokemon got close to 12m in the drainelo fight?

    and the gbp cut?

    wow. i thought this guy is his own boss..


    so the whole showtime deal, pokemon will earn 50-60m?

    fiddy is right. theftjr isnt the sharpest knife in the drawer.


    so if they pursue the tmt promotion, promoting thefjr's fights, he could have easily saved 70-80m off cuts to pokemon and gbp.

    of that, he could have paid fiddy 8-10m for the duration of the showtime deal.

    theftjr is dumber than i thought.

    what happened to pokemon and gbp getting a fixed cut?
