his record... http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=078475&cat=boxer won the title in 2004. he's defended it 16 times in 8 years...16 fights in 8 years. not one super fight. not one mega payday. fights chumps for chump change. where is the value in that?
I think he makes good money staying in Indonesia, while facing limited opposition. He's not fighting in empty casinos like a lot of other champions, so he's doing okay!
Wasn't he signed to GPB at one point? I thought his career was going to take off and he would take more risks guess that didn't happen I was hoping for Russell Jr vs John
I think thier doing great with him. Like a previous poster said he fights limited opposition and gets paid.
in fight mad indonesia, they have live overseas fights displayed at railway stations!! i watched a delahoya fight on the platform of a station in 2000...!! no he doesnt do too well in indonesia. not as well as would be expected. he is revered in indonesia. a country of 200 million people, with no other sporting idols. he is the only one. ive heard it said there are 20 million millionaires in indonesia. there is great poverty, and great wealth. he should be on every billboard, every tv commercial, merchandising etc. but no, nothing. badly handled compared to what he could do if marketed correctly. its nearly too late. it probably is too late.
He's financially managed well. His boxing career for what it is - is a joke though. No doubt he is lining his pockets well fighting chumps - for decent change. Good on him I guess.
This content is protected I'm not bothering, today. It's like trying to argue philosophy with Gary Busey. You know nothing you say is going to take when you look deeply into his bat**** gaze.
Pretty much on point. A supposed to be slick boxerr in John who was out to impress in the US, was twice put on ***** street in the late rounds by lead footed stepping stone Rocky Juarez, and back to Indonesia John goes!
