    You can throw Floyd into the mix if you want, but the GG card was a flop money wise. It wasn't a big flop because they didn't have expectations, but it was a flop. Now they know that he needs a name to sell ppv's.

    Why would people compare Floyd's ppv's to GG's first ppv? And don't blame black folk for the white Russian fighter selling 97k. He' 33 years old and nobody wants to back a guy who can turn old at any time. Nobody believes in him except you, a few fans here in America..and fans from Eastern Europe.

    Wow, you once again proved that your IQ is below 70. Ward takes more money from the table, but he doesn't attract viewers, so he doesn't put much on that table.

    Ward is an A side of making a promoter bankrupt.

    You don't see the point in using numbers from unofficial sources yet you are running with an unofficial source and are claiming it irrelevant if the source is unofficial you are going to run with it, but still not seeing the point in using unofficial numbers?

    Bro, get it together...

    What a troll.

    Literally everything he said is either incorrect or assumptive in a way in which it could easily be turned around to an equal or even greater counter argument.

    Why doesn't Andre Ward even attempt a PPV fight? What is the problem? He supposed to be this master boxer!

    Wasn't Dawson managed by Haymon not Prince?

    Chad linked up with Haymon in 2014.

    Prince didn't keep his name out there for Dawson, but he never quit being involved behind the scenes. He still maintained an ownership stake in Dawson's earnings once they settled the lawsuit in August, 2010. This doesn't sound like the statement of someone who is solely a passive investor, though:

    James Prince
    :
    “It is an honor and privilege to be back in a position to work for Chad without any obstacles. Once he and I had an opportunity to meet one on one, we were able to resolve our issues immediately, because we never really had any issues in the first place. Rather, it was the Obstacles that conspired to try to make us enemies. This is a new beginning for Chad, and we are moving forward as a united team."

    Chad:
    “I am glad to have this behind me, and I am excited about working with James Prince again. We are moving forward together - this is a new beginning for me. I have James Prince back and a new team around me, so everything is great. "

    Chad's manager (on paper) was his lawyer, Herman Woodard. If that name doesn't exactly resonate with you, I don't blame you. Run a google search for " "Herman Woodard" boxing manager" to see just how deep ol' Herman's ties run to the managing business.

    I'm going to venture that it was a pretty interesting one-on-one meeting between Chad and James to lead to their "reuniting"...:lol:
