    I've liked Vitali but, that's just f'ing wrong...If this is true, then I'd say both their option laden contracts and their greed has more to do with their trouble finding willing opponents rather than fear...

    After taxes and trainer/manager fees and expenses he will be lucky to see $500,000 of that.

    Hmm
    Sold out arena .. I think the 700 K plus Euro is probably right.
    So 900 plus K US and will probably get a few more off the top.
