    I know HBO took the distribution and production cost from the first 'section' of turnover, then the next $3m or something went to BHOP, with the 'next' $3m to Jones.

    Rumoured that total revenue didn't get anywhere near that. Is this true?

    I can't see any past their prime fighter competing for anything less than big money, rivalry or not.

    Rapheal had posted that RJJ embarrased himself for free......per contract and B-hop probably had enough to go to McDonalds by himself after it was all said and done.

    Thats what has been said. Rumor is his camp didn't want him to take the awful deal, but he was convinced people would pay 50 bucks to have him and Hopkins stare at eachother for 12 rounds.
