I am a boxing manager: if you have questions about the boxing biz, ask!

Ok,that is great advise!
..ill start at one of the competitive boxing gyms,just to test the waters..and i think eventually move to L.A
..do you know of any good boxing trainers or managers in my area you might recommend?
..also,
..since exercise and changing bodies is another passion of mine..
Do you think its possible to be a great trainer/s&c guy?..or would it be better just to specialize in only one thing ?

 

Great!..thnks

 

Great!..thnks
I think training would be my thing,since ive always loved boxing..and enjoy teaching.
..in regards to finding talent..have you had to travel (say to Mexico) ..or out of state to chk out talent ?..is that idvisable?
How do you find talent?..or do fighters/trainers go to you?...
(ive always thought theres great fighters training day in day out in small unknown gyms waiting to be discovered)..
I think there are many potential champions out there..a guy shows you hes got the passion & heart for the sport..you give him the tools...and things start to happen.

 

Hey, are you still a boxing manager? Can you email me? I have a few things I'd like to get to know. My email is kdbookingz at gmail . com

 

Been reading a new book on Ali from my local library.

The Ali Files tbh not a lot of material that has not been covered before.The fights broken down individually in short form and tells what happened to all his opponents after career wise etc...some interesting bits & pieces.


What it throws up is all his purses the writer his uk publicist.His purses I knew up to 1975 and has been covered many pages ago in his thread.There are many reading this that enjoy the business end of management and numbers so here you are.Some listed are different for example some sources have Ali earning $6m for the last of his trilogy v Frazier.Anyway here you go.
$4.5 m v Frazier 1975
$1m v Jean-Pierre Coopman 1976
$1.6m v Jimmy Young
$1.6m v Richard Dunn
$6m v Ken Norton
$2.75m v Alfredo Evangelista 1977
$3m v Earnie Shavers
$3.5m v Leon Spinks 1978
$3.5m v Leon Spinks rematch
$8m v Larry Holmes 1980
$1.2m v Trevor Berbick 1981

 

Oh well everyone got their breath back after last weeks big fight?

'For the fans fight' many years too late.It was a fight about numbers five years ago they may of been looking at a $50m fight.

Of course last week many times those revenue numbers which are still being calculated who knows the exact figure $300m plus all told?The casual fan can now go back and find the latest bandwagon to jump on.

Would never call myself a MM fan,can take him or leave him....you see a great fighter but never in great fights whether you like it or not stylistically.To those paying to see him lose PPV and boo ringside?A fool and his money are soon parted.

 

I hear ya. Same thing I was telling my wife. Folks pay in hopes he losses. Hahaha. I was laughing the whole night.

for all you would be promoters

 

If you go into a fight with any minor injury don't whinge about it afterwards when you lose,if it worsens that is the chance you take.Going into a fight with 'the best camp I ever had' and then talking about an injury afterwards?

David Haye...broken toe after the Klitschko fight?Sometimes you have to leave things be it does no favours PPV fight here in Europe both got big coin off it,the fans feel shortchanged.It's done.

Jesus Chavez a warrior on all nights,Dempsey,Morales wanted no part of a rematch tells it's own story?

British HW fight you all may want to see regarding shoulder injuries,Danny Williams v Mark Potter just check that famous search engine 6th round worth a look guys.
