Doesn't matter who the sponsor is & how big they are, it's all relative to the level he is at. Your attitude brings your sport down, every other sportsperson in the country is fighting tooth & nail over sponsorship, it's not easy to come by, I imagine it would be available for a clean, healthy young bloke who represents himself well
u are so wrong its not funny, the clean , innocent talking guys get fark all in sponsorship because they do not draw enough attention. Outspoken people do.
Absolute bull****, any CEO or corporation worth their salt won't pour money into sportspeople who don't behave & represent the ideals & charter of the company We see sportspeople losing lucrative deals all the time, sports teams as well
This is boxing, not League or any other sport, It's a combat sport.... Big mOuths make big dollars, The bad boys come out on top. Why was hooper the only Aussie boxer to get any coverage in the main stream media?? Because he "Stepped out of line"
Spot on m8.. I guess mayweather is squeeky clean and thats why he is one of the most highest paid sportsman in history. but wtf would we know, Wide Open Anus who dont even follow the sport by his own admission would know A TONE more than people like us :hey NOT!
Wayne Carey is doing ok these days and that after he was snorting coke, assulting police and glassing his missus at the time so your arguement holds no weight. He is currently contracted to Channel 9, Triple M and the Herald sun to name a few, what do you think the CEO's of those companies think. Maybe those CEO's are not as cluey as you and your right and they are wrong, you should contact them straight away and set them straight :good
Articles in mainstream media does not equate to sponsorship dollars Papers are sold on controversy, yes! But the recipient of these stories doesn't get paid, he gets publicity, it's up to him to take advantage of publicity, to take advantage he needs to be marketable, to be marketable he needs to fit in with the integrity of the organisation, it's pretty simple fellas
All media organisations, they obviously take risks, they obviously argue that it was in the past, they perhaps offset the risk with the benefits he brings, I don't know much about the bloke, but media outlets are pretty adept at spin doctoring You'd also have to weigh up how much his indiscretions cost him over the years in sponsorship & marketability, I'd think it significant
Might not be a bad idea. Mundine lives clean he might convert him to Islam but if he gets him off the **** he might not turn into another Willy Kickett.
To lose sponsors you first have to have them , The bad boys of sport who have done ok AFTER ****ing up , only done well because they are ALREADY known , Mayweather with his profile and following , could **** in a bucket in the middle of target ,, he would lose some sponsors , but Kleenex , arse wipe paper would offer him money to smile at the camera , and hold up there toilet roll. Carey , well i doubt he has to many sponsors but his profile , got him the media jobs , theres a lot of coperate dollars out there , but only a few recieve most of them , the rest have to fight it out , and Hooper he has no chance , he acts like a dick and comes across has a dick , just a waste of all the taxpayers money thats been spent on him , over the years , , he has a chip on his shoulder and i doubt if its going to leave him ever . And you know what his pro carreer is going NO WHERE above domestic level , because he simply is'nt good enough . Ok he'll win a few meanigless belts , but internationaly , he has'nt got the dedication , will power , or self control .. because he's a genuine version of generation Y.. Oh pity me , oh its not my fault,Oh i had a hard life , Oh its all right for you , cos you got a job . Fenech was a perfect example , there was a wild child , but on his way to the top and when he got there , the sponsorship dollars came rolling in , because he behaved and played the media, once he made his millions he went back to his true self a wild child . but he was smart . Hooper well he's just ****ing dumb
