    Some of you lot might know so if you do help me understand a little. The guys been in the Fury camp for some time now. He hasn't had big fights. So how does this guy make money? Do his fights pay him that much. Considering hes in the UK training, covering diet costs, living costs and possibly even training costs (Fury camp). Maybe he has money and he his just living off that, I don't know. The money thing makes me wonder.

    Does some work for boxnation it looks like so i'm guessing he gets cash from that, depends on how much he has made in his career and could be living from that and only spends what he get's from fights.

    He said he got more for his last three fights than for some much bigger fights he had in the States. He's fine.

    Comes over as a decent chap, and a very good pundit.

    His latest "interview" with IFLTV though is beyond cringeworthy. :-(

    Plus the guy is not young. He needs big fights, doubt he has any other job besides boxing. Makes me wonder about other fighters now, like that guy Frank Buglioni, they said he will go from his job to full time boxing. Don't know how they do this.

    Decent pundit Chambers, I'd like to see him do some work for Channel Five if they buy more European cards.

    Buglioni was a building surveyor working for his daddy firm so I guess he comes from a well off family...Chambers living expenses are met by the Furys...

    32 is young enough for a HW.

    The one where Cassius talks absolute gibberish in an awful American accent? Agreed.
    Does seem a bit strange that Eddie is fighting so far down the card after so long with Team Fury though. He seems like a really likeable guy but if he's not struggling financially at the moment i'd be surprised.

    It would be interesting if someone could break down the numbers for a full event and where every penny goes.

    It all seems quite mutually beneficial. I doubt he is making much money over here but as he has said a fair few times, he wanted to take a step back and train back up to having a big fight again so he is better prepared.
    And the Fury heavyweights get quality sparring which is never especially easy to find.

    He seems a nice guy, hope he can have a few big fights and win his fair share.

    Lives above the gym, probably paid for sparring sessions.
