    How much money would it take?

    If you dont give your honest best effort to win the fight you dont get paid and I will know.

    Each fighter will let loose on you as they did on the named oponent.

    The Joe Grim of the Jack Johnson fight.

    The Chris Byrd of the Povetkin fight.

    The Harry Greb of the fist Gene Tunney fight.

    The Muhamad Ali of the Earnie Terrel fight (yes you called him Clay)

    The Jack Johnson of the Tommy Burns fight (yes you called him a yellow ******)

    The Jack Dempsey of the Willard fight (yes he wears 5 oz gloves and has bet his entire purse on a first round knockout)

    The Lennox Lewis of the Tyson fight (no he is not in the least sorry for you).

    If none of the above is your worst case scenario please tell me what is.

    Expenses, for my chocolate brown shorts;); £5 Million; plus life and serious injury cover for the same amount.

    Half a million dollars is more than enough for me. Hell, I'd probably fight most of those guys for about $250,000. I could pay the rest of my house off and still have enough left over for other things.

    If some of the bums who went rounds with Dempsey could do it, then I could do it.

    Any one of those "bums" would anihilate you in the ring.

    That is reality.

    Well, given that you don't even know who the hell I am, nor have likely seen many of those "bums" either, I don't think you're in a position to dicern what is reality.

    The Joe Grim of the Jack Johnson fight.
    14 dollars.

    The Chris Byrd of the Povetkin fight.
    6 Dollars

    The Harry Greb of the fist Gene Tunney fight.
    400,000 Dollars

    The Muhamad Ali of the Earnie Terrel fight
    Ah, Jesus, this'd be the worst. That **** was downright sadistic. A cool million

    The Jack Johnson of the Tommy Burns fight
    47,000

    The Jack Dempsey of the Willard fight
    I doubt I'd have to last as long as Willard did, doubt I'd be able to stand after that left hook. Still, I'd be risking death and/or permanent brain damage so one million.

    The Lennox Lewis of the Tyson fight
    900,000

    Who are you?

    Wlad Klitschko perhaps?

    What is your profesional or amateur record?

    Unless your answer is prety compeling you are toast against The guys Dempsey fought when he started to hit the world stage.

    Considering i'm a welterweight, i wouldn't fight them for any amount of money. They can put you in a wheelchair. I'd pull a Seldon or a Liston.

    Any case would be a nice retirement fund for me.
